At the airport
I am at the airport now waiting for a flight to Dubai. Originally we were supposed to leave on the Sri Lanken airlines flight at 7:10 but that got delayed till around 9:30. Problem is there is a soccer match tonight and me and my partner are supposed to watch it at the Double Decker pub in Dubai. We tried getting on the Emirates airline flight which takes off at 6 but it was fully booked and in the end there was only 1 seat left and they gave it to this guy who had like a gold skywards card or something.
I am now sitting in Starbucks just waiting for our late flight. We are going to miss the soccer match which I was looking forward to watching…

10. Mark | May 1st, 2007 at 7:02 pm
it starts 9:45PM, Liverpool vs Chelsea
11. Dina | May 1st, 2007 at 7:14 pm
Liveeeeeeerpooooooooool!!!
You better watch it somewhere, it’s going to be an awesome game. Anfield (the Liverpool stadium) is one of the loudest in the world and Chelsea v. Liverpool games are the best.
Chelsea beat Liverpool in the first game 1-0, so this game is going to be real pumped up.
12. mocman | May 1st, 2007 at 7:17 pm
what are they showing on art4 then?? maybe a rerun…

I am suffering from the same problem, my Kuwait Airways flight is delayed from 4:30 to 8:00. I was supposed to see it at Al Hakawati coffee shop with some frinds. Hope to catch at least the second half.
14. Khalid | May 1st, 2007 at 7:55 pm

LIVERPOOL JUST WON ;P

24. arabainfox | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:55 am
Noooo :( I really thought this was chelsea’s year :( and i am suprised to say this but i think chelsea miss shevchenko and ballack. schevchenko gives space to drogba and ballack pushes the midfield… :( well next year is there…
hmm now ac milan has my support but i think the final will be between man u and liverpool…
25. arabainfox | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:56 am
:’(
26. Carlsb3rg | May 2nd, 2007 at 7:43 am
Liverpool won on PENALTIES not aggregate.
YNWA.
27. Patrick | May 2nd, 2007 at 8:47 am
Who ever thought Chelsea was going to win? Pfft. Even with Sheva they weren’t going to beat Liverpool. Sheva and both Ballack suck at Chelsea.
It’s going to be a repeat of 2005, Liverpool v. Milan!
28. Lexicon | May 2nd, 2007 at 9:25 am
i hope milan goes thru to the final and crash that damn english party…
29. DeReD | May 2nd, 2007 at 9:35 am
Crap game.. Mourinho screwed up.. why put Robben on to take the first penalty??? He has’nt played in months..
Glory Glory Man United…
30. Patrick | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:13 am
Dered:
The “Special One” didn’t screw up, Benitez is just too good. Robben didn’t miss the penalty, Reina caught it :P He’s just damn good at penalties.
You damn Chelski’s.
31. lfc-Q8 | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:15 pm
you`ll never walk alone …. see you in athens :)
32. diesel | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:46 pm
I don’t care whether its Milan or those scum Mancs, just bring it on. YNWA
33. arabianfox | May 2nd, 2007 at 1:51 pm
Im not saying sheva is at best form but he has always played well and i think anyone will agree when they play 4-4-2 drogba gets more space…
but anyways reina did well, thumps up, argghh its so gutting to go out on penalties…
34. lfc-q8 | May 2nd, 2007 at 3:49 pm
well chelsea fan if the ref counted kuyts goal which was on side you woudnt have penalties :)
35. Tarek | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:22 pm
Mark I made it at the second half, it was awesome, I did not see your comment so I did not look around. We can meet when we are back in Kuwait. I am in the airport right now in my way to Doha, I will watch the Man United vs Milan there…That’s gonna be a real battle
36. arabianfox | May 2nd, 2007 at 9:17 pm
