Listen laois Lad not a pleasant time for anyone in Italy, but we are world champions and after the pain of the bung allegations it would be worthy to add the champions league to the trophy haul would it not.
As for the champions league Ive always maintained that Liverpool bring more an element of i"ts a knockout" to the competition than a feeling of champion regality. How many championships since the 80s Laois lad, and you seriously believe that you should be in the champions league.

Liverpool to wear Red in the final

That's interesting. Much was made of the fact that Milan had never lost in white the last time around, so I thought they'd revert to proper rossoneri for this one. Certainly makes me feel better that Liverpool will be wearing the colours they have worn for forty-two of their 115 year existence.

Ferguson backs Milan to beat Reds 

Milan's semi-final victory over United impressed Ferguson
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes Liverpool have no chance of beating AC Milan in the Champions League final on 23 May.
Milan beat United in the semi-finals to set up a repeat of the 2005 final, which Liverpool won on penalties.

Ferguson told the Sun: "I'd bet for sure that Milan will win the Champions League. I'm absolutely certain of it.

"I told their manager Carlo Ancelotti at the end of our semi-final that there is no way he cannot win it now."

Ferguson plans to toast Milan's victory with a bottle of wine given to him by Ancelotti after his side had lost in Italy.

I'm still trying to analyse the factors involved but the truth remains we faced one of the best performances in the history of AC Milan

Sir Alex Ferguson

"Carlo gave me a magnificent bottle of wine," Ferguson added. "But I immediately told him I would only drink his wine once I see him lifting the Champions Cup."

The United boss admits his team were outclassed in the second leg of their semi-final, which Milan won 3-0.

But Ferguson believes his side were tired from their efforts in the Premiership the previous weekend, which helped United regain the title for the first time since 2003.

"Milan's second-leg victory over us was stupendous, fantastic and extraordinary," Ferguson said.

"But I know we paid a high price for the Premiership fightback which we needed at Everton to turn a 2-0 scoreline into a 4-2 victory.

"Last week, Milan were fresher and better prepared tactically and physically.

"I'm still trying to analyse the factors involved. But the truth remains we faced one of the best performances in the history of AC Milan."

Well we have a better chance than some teams........Fergie needs to get over their disastrous performance last week and leave it the people involved.

The ballot happened this morning and it seems to have been a disatser. Reading the different forums the ballot was 24,000 people applying for for 13,000 tickets but on all the forums the ration seems to be 1 in every 15 or so got successful. One person had 20 names in the ballot and not one came out.

Cosnpiracy theroies are on the go on the forums, anyone affected on here?

Ferguson just did what he has been doing for years - winding people up.
The best thing Liverpool can do is ignore 'Sir Alex'.
If liverpool win the champions leauge it will take the sparkle of utd title win and he doesn't want that.....
