Europe - it's the place for you and me

[vin_petrol]

Tonight my football team (Middlesbrough) are playing Sevilla in the FINAL OF THE UEFA CUP! This isn't the sort of thing supporting Middlesbrough has ever prepared me for.
I have lots of beer in the fridge. Kickoff is at 19:45, and it's highly likely I will be a gibbering wreck two hours later. I'm already pretty nervous now.
I am therefore apologising in advance for the possibility of drunken text messages to everyone in my address book or incoherent LJ posts.

How will we tell the difference?

I'm planning to go and play knock and run on my neighbour's door just after kick-off as he's a 'Boro fan too ~:0)

How will we tell the difference?

Less fuzzy pictures of bands? Less talk about boobies?

[captainblue.livejournal.com]

But that's bad!

I bet Sevilla will make marmalade out of them.

Ho ho - you're so witty :-P

[rosamicula.livejournal.com]

I might be witty but I'm not a ho!:-PPP

The icon made me do it!

Sevilla = Servalan/Villa merger?

Re: The icon made me do it!

[rosamicula.livejournal.com]

That is truly terrible. I applaud it!

Good luck chief! I will be an honourary smoggie tonight! :)

[vin_petrol]

Thanks! I'll be cheering Arsenal on next week too.

[Of course, if both teams win, won't we play in that Uefa Super Cup othing(?) later in the summer?]

[analogueheart.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Fancy a trip to Monaco then? :)

[vin_petrol]

It appears that will not be required :-(

[ant-girl.livejournal.com]

Feh.

[vin_petrol]

Indeed.

[ant-girl.livejournal.com]

Aw, diddums. Poor little Vin. :-(

Still, they did very well to get that far, no?

You should support Mansfield, then you wouldn't have to put up with such disappointments!

[sarah-mum.livejournal.com]

*possibility?* Certainty more like!

I predict that 'Boro will get hammered, so will you and the networks will be jammed with "we wus robbed" messages.

[vin_petrol]

Hammered, yes, but I can't say we were robbed.

[vin_petrol]

Thank. Sadly, it was not our destiny to win :-(

[blondelass.livejournal.com]

Less talk about boobies?

:-o Must be serious.

[vin_petrol]

Nice user pic!

See, even in the midst of dispair there are still boobies to cheer me up.

I don't normally take any sort of interest in f00tball, but tonight for one night only.....
COME ON THE 'BORO

[vin_petrol]

Thank you. But it was not to be.
