Since the old thread evaporated, I thought I'd make a new one. Here are some pics from my visit to France. These are from La Stade de France. I missed the CL Final by a day :-(. Amazing stadium though. Still had all the banners up. Anyway... On the field. One corner of the stadium. Another corner.
And my presonal favorite--The Locker Room! This is the same one Barca used in the final. There were Coke stains on the walls and everything . Awesome. There will probably be more to come. None this cool though. Enjoy!
Nice pics mate, all i can remember at the end of that game was the rain belting down, cant believe how good the pitch looks hours after.
This was a few days after. There were little bits of confetti floating around everywhere. They said it would cost about 150,000 Euro to replace all the grass on the pitch.
Just f'n great! Just when I was beginning to push those memories of Baletti crying with happiness in the rain to the back of my head, you put these up...you are a cruel, cruel, cruel person! I have never been the same since that night on the 17th, at least not mentally and emotionally, and Arsenally! So near, yet so far, just 15 more minutes, 15 minutes, 15 damn more minutes, wahhhhhhh!!! On a more mentally normal note, great pics mate, it must have been a great experience, an empty stadium still has a great atmosphere. Thanks for sharing! No I'm going to go cry in the bathroom...
whoaaahh nice pics mate. n nice Vans kicks. haha.. got the same model, but with flame design no relevance but yea.. haha
That's nothing. I'm an Italy fan. In the Euro 2000 final we were 30 seconds away from winning and France tied it...
Oooof, I probably would have vomited. You guys should have seen me when Arsenal conceded that penalty in the semi-final of the CL...and at least the CL happens every year, not 4, and it was only the semi-final! I couldn't speak the next day because i swore and screamed at the TV so much.
bah, nothing can top our finals. beating teams on penalties after going 3nil down. TWICE. i was already preparing for the stick i was gonna get the following morning after the FA cup when stevie hit that sweet, sweet strike. *daydreams*
Ok, now before any1 starts poking fun at me, I would like to clear up that i took this pic for Art, as we have to draw from a photo of ourselves...so i am posing! Just incase of you people forgot how i looked...i need a tan:
Whoa Sain1/p i m p, look at the ladies on your profile! I need to check into the USA, all I have over here is apple and she lives somewhere wierd so there's no hope! Mines myspace.com/volio
soccer legs are a good thing now? :O soccer legs here are mostly muscular and often with tackle scars and grass burns!
IF YOU ARE A MAN! my legs certainly don't have grass burns on! Maybe the odd bruise - lol but well i can't help it if men kick me when they cant get the ball! And benvolio how is Birmingham a weird place to live?! Hahaha. But hey, this thread really is ALIVE now that R&W has posted some pictures i was wondering how long it would take him appleCORR
Haha, but speaking of soccer legs... When I started playing footy, I noticed that players' legs were quite bandy. Mine weren't at all. Now, a few years later, and after playing so much, I've noticed that my legs have got quite bandy....not much, but my legs do curve out abit. I wonder if it has to do with the football?
