It might be that they will only fly you from a GB airport. If you have to get a flight to Gatwick or Glasgow or wherever, it's the least of your worries.

Edit: I would never advise anyone to commit any sort of fraud, of course.

Well, that attempt at "playing the ball" didn't last very long, did it? Wink

Anyhow, the stats from last night:

Goals: Ajax 2 vs Spurs 3
Total Goal Attempts: 16 vs 23
Attempts on target: 4 vs 7
Attempts blocked: 7 vs 7
Hit the Woodwork: 1 vs 2
Corners: 6 vs 9
Offsides: 2 vs 1

Possession: 43% vs 57%
Passing Accuracy: 79% vs 84%
Passes: 390 vs 566
Passes completed: 309 vs 478
Distance covered: 117.9 kms vs 114.9 kms

Tackles: 4 vs 0
Blocks: 7 vs 7
Clearances: 24 vs 12

Yellow Cards: 3 vs 2
Fouls committed: 13 vs 12

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And the stats from the 1st leg:

Goals: Spurs 0 vs Ajax 1
Total Goal Attempts: 12 vs 10
Attempts on target: 1 vs 2
Attempts blocked: 4 vs 5
Hit the Woodwork: 0 vs 1
Corners: 3 vs 3
Offsides: 0 vs 5

Possession: 49% vs 51%
Passing Accuracy: 74% vs 78%
Passes: 476 vs 468
Passes completed: 352 vs 364
Distance covered: 113.7 kms vs 115.3 kms

Tackles: 1 vs 2
Blocks: 5 vs 4
Clearances: 22 vs 18

Yellow Cards: 0 vs 2
Fouls committed: 14 vs 14

Of course, mere stats don't necessarily prove anything.

But those stats certainly don't support your assertion that Ajax were the better team "by far" over the two legs. LOL

Haha, what a shower of twats! They sent an email apologising, replied telling them to get fecked, would never get another order from me (Amazon is cheaper anyway, generally), and I'd sue for harassment if I got one single more email from them. Feeling less annoyed now Smile

Nope. I was a Liverpool fan till my early 20s, I'd class my self a well wisher these days. I hope they beat Spurs but if they were playing Ajax I would enjoy Ajax winning it, just for them been the underdogs with young players, smaller budget and lovely football. 

I'd normally have no issue with Spurs winning it either, good to see clubs win things for the first time and not the same old same old. But I don't know what it is about Spurs at the minute that annoy me 

On Arsenal I should be a fan, as my dad went to their home games for a good few years, and my other two brothers follow them, one living quite close to the stadium now. But the bigger boys and the winning of things meant I supported Liverpool, so I was a little bandwagoning sh*t at 8LOL
