R. Madrid vs Arsenal (CL) 1-5!

I checked my options and I can’t justify the fund, effort, change of plans at last minute.

I am cursing myself for not thinking about it when the draw first happened. I knew I would be in Spain and Madrid was reachable.
Even with a first leg defeat, it would have been a good spectacle to watch Arsenal in Bernabeu.

What an idiot I am!

Don’t beat yourself over it. Qualifying to the next round should make up for it.

I paid £230 to see us lose to West Ham :skull:

Supposedly they checked names vs passports when city went there anyway so you’d struggle to find an away ticket.

Just find a good Irish pub and enjoy it from there bud. Speaking of which, @oompa any recommendations for such establishments in Stockholm?

I’m scheduling a work training so I can catch at least 90% of the match uninterrupted.

I’ll need a defibrillator for that game on Wednesday.

not really, because I’ve never visited Ireland (or any Irish pub in the UK) so I can’t tell a good one from a tourist trap :sweat_smile:

The names I remember hearing on occasion would be The Auld and The Liffey, maybe google those and see if any of them seem to do the job? Then there’s a place called Wirströms Pub, which looks a bit special from the outside but I’ve never been inside lol

Thanks, will check them out on Tuesday. Also saw a place called the flying horse which is supposed to be decent and a bit gooner centric so will look there as well.

Named after the Arsenal Horse I presume? :zany_face:

Bottle a Spanish police officer on my behalf please :folded_hands:

First off, didn’t know they’re doing stats for refs now. Secondly, these look worrying?
About 50% he gives a pen and about 30% he sends someone off. Is that normal?

A red card is pretty much guaranteed with this chump.

Yeah we’re fucked

Now you know :+1:

His rate of giving pens in the CL is 58% (8% more than 50%). Which you constitute to be ~50% rate.

His rate of sending someone off is 42% which is 8% less than 50%, which you constitute to be ~30%.

How does that work exactly? :thinking:

what are the odds for each quarter final ?

Does VAR overturn penalties and red cards in the UCL?

Not sure if serious or not but I took the average off of all the competitions.
