Champions League Final at NRG

Watching the Champions League in Abu Dhabi was fun. Ended up in NRG Sports Bar at Le Meridien, watching it out doors till 2 in the morning. The place was rammed and a great atmosphere. There were people wearing Manure tops and others wearing Chelski, and there was great banter going on between all the groups. But the one guy that stood out from all was the big bloke standing in the centre all the way through the game wearing an Arse top! Fair play to him! Was going to wear a Villa shirt, but thought it might be best to save that one for the main European tournament that kicks off in July, the Inter Toto! It's importance is under rated!

Met a nice guy while at NRG from the FT. Originally from Yorkshire and a Leeds Utd fan, but still a decent bloke. As he was with his mate Colin the Manc, he felt he ought to support Manure, which I think is the first time I've ever heard a Leeds fan do that.
