According to Sky Sports it is a closed training session tonight.

Saying that what do Sky know................they just seriously asked a load of 'pilots' outside Barcelona's club shop if they had any advice on flight/travel plans for the final and they turned out to be a bunch of blokes on a stag do dressed up!

If you do manage to get there to see the card waving fairies can you personally stick one on Daniel Alves please !

The REAL reason why they are training behind closed doors is that they are trying out some new innovative diving techniques. Eboue is watching from behind the bushes...

Why would you want Barcelona's autographs? :? That's like hanging around outside Spurs Lodge to see if you can get a squiggle from Peter Crouch :?

I know one of the NFL teams turned down use of our facilities as they were too expensive last year. In Barcelona's case we probably paid them to come

Wenger's probably wanking himself senseless on the touchline, watching all that tippy tappy passing . . . . . .

When he's finished, I hope he takes note that Barca also work bloody hard when they're not in possession. Unlike most of our lazy little sods!!
