I have an interest in both, but neither mean much to me.

I heard a quote in the media yesterday that "Cardiff are one game away from changing the club FOREVER." Can't quite get my head around how everyone seems to think that sort of financial disparagy between the haves and the have nots is anything other than really bad for the game.

Looking forward to both. Although it'e getting irritating hearing every news outlet simply describing the Championship Play Off FInal as simplay a match to win £90m, what the f*** happened to winning football for the glory?

That's it isn't it. The game is no longer about teams getting the opportunity to play at the highest level, move themselves on and up in the game, for future glory. You'd struggle to hear a single mention of things like that all day, but every other sentence will talk about the financial wealth (and debt opportunities!!!) that winning the game will bring.

Modern football is all about £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££, and that's a shame.

Absolutely. I'll take a passing interest in the Champions League Final but I don't especially like either club. I hope Inter win though.

Championship final has plenty of previous for being a cracking game. Despite Sky's
endless cliches relating to the value of the game to the winners.
