    Uefa strikes again

    In their infinite wisdom Uefa has decided that West Ham, 60,000 fans, will play Fiorentina, 30,000 fans, in a 20,000 capacity stadium in Prague and allocated each club 5,000 odd tickets each, sponsors and the 'Uefa family' getting the rest.

    This is a game that could sell out Wembley twice over. What could possibly go wrong ?

    When I first read about this issue I thought it must be a mistake. Oh No it isn't.

    You'd hope Sub that the beautiful city of Prague does not suffer too much disruption or damage. I can't help thinking that the Chief of Police snd the city's bar and restaurant owners will be feeling a tad apprehensive. On the other hand, local joiners, carpenters and glaziers might be rubbing their hands in anticipation.

    Sadly, that scenario could well happen.

    Amazing how EUFA seems to think these idiotic ideas up. 💡

    You have to wonder why the Prague local authorities and police sanctioned a major final being played on such a tiny ground in their city.
    Did they have no idea what might be visited upon them ?

    Financial greed wins every time mon ami. Greed trumps praguematism every day of the week and twice on a Wednesday.
