So fans of a professional sports team are upset they haven't won much for a while, so trashed the joint, slashed a cop, and got a game called off? Scummy scummy behavior
Premier League sides, like nearly every professional sporting organisation, stopped being "clubs" a long time ago. They are a badge and a stadium and a rotating set or personnel. These idiots seem pissed simply because their current roster of recruited millionaires isn't as good as other teams roster of recruited millionaires.
So they kicked off. What exactly did they think that little stunt was going to achieve?
They'll probably be punished by having to play their remaining games in an empty stadium... oh wait...

Man City destroyed PSG and are in to the Champs League final
I hope they win it to be honest. It's the one trophy they need to cap off what an extraordinary team they have been over the last few years

@bovidae well done - I thought it would take longer
The only reason I knew is that I looked at the full list of finalists last week after watching ESPN FC talking about the ESL and they mentioned some of the clubs who had won the EC but aren't "big clubs" anymore. Clubs like Red Star, Steaua București etc.

Boom. All English final. Go the CFC.
my bet on Chelsea to win the whole thing from before the quarters is looking pretty handy

Manchester becomes the 5th city to have two different European Cup / Champions League finalists.
Four are easy - whats the 5th?
And the 6th will be Nottingham! Might take a few years though .....
In all seriousness Rome would be obvious choice if Lazio ever have one of those seasons.

It's a tough one to call - Chelsea dominated them in the FA Cup Semi but that was City's B/A team. Can see potential weaknesses in both teams, especially to pace in behind the defence.

Nik tzanev has become a firm fav with Wimbledon fan, love it when players take opportunities and run with them, finished the season with another clean sheet and some chat of getting our young player of the year even though he’s not been playing regularly since march

Wood on the sheet again.
Fulham down.
A sad but inevitable day for @dogmeat - they subsided with a whimper after threatening to fight until the final day.
The Championship relegation fight was a real humdinger. With all games being played at the same time, all of Derby, Rotherham and Sheffield Wednesday were in position to stay up while the games took place. Rotherham would have stayed up but conceded a late equaliser to take them down. Sheffield Wednesday were 1-0 up and 3-2 down but Derby made it 3-3 to be the team that survived. Not sure Rooney will survive as manager though.
