I have a tip don't bother visiting Old Trafford (only joking,

i'm a Liverpool fan)

I have been at Old Trafford once, when my country was playing England in a World Cup Qualifying game a few years ago, its a very good stadium, i didn't go on the stadium tour (again Liverpool fan) but i am sure that is worth doing as well. If you are genuinely interested in football stadiums, you should take the opportunity to visit some of the stadiums in that area of England, Manchester City, Liverpool, Everton, Burnley, Blackburn, Preston, Blackpool etc etc.

cool i am about to pound the moneyline at -185.. then i will make a play on the -1 goal line -105 and take the over 3 goals as well..

**demize21** · 08-26-09, 05:34 PM

how do i post personal stadium pics?

**DJ RM** · 08-26-09, 05:35 PM

While I love Galatasaray -1 because of the difference in quality, do you think they will press enough for 4 goals? They are already up 5-0 from the first leg.

Sick stadiums btw. Can't believe they packed 200k in for the 1950 world cup in rio!

if you watch Galatasaray.. you will notice they don't have a game with less then 3 goals.. this team doesn't care about the first leg... they don't care about the other team.. all this team wants to do is score score score..

take the over 2.5/3 at bet phoenix and double your normal wager.. so you can get a full bet on the over 2.5

there will be at least 3 goals in this game..

**TurkzZ** · 08-26-09, 05:42 PM

Ill look into it in detail tomorrow but the b team will be out to prove thenselves, and with elano playing his 1st 90 mins im sure he will want to put on a show, And yh imagin the atmosphear with 200k, amazing, it was ristricted after part of the stadium fell and killed 50 fans, it was restricted to 80k, with renovations its now 100k

**kmarinouofm** · 08-26-09, 05:45 PM

each city in the world should have a team and then compete lol

**Karayilan9** · 08-26-09, 07:19 PM

The Maracana is worth travelling to Brazil for, the Fla-Flu derby is legendary.

Ali Sami Yen is one crazy stadium, they greet opposition teams with 'WELCOME TO HELL'

Come match time its a fiery atmosphere

**kmarinouofm** · 08-26-09, 07:21 PM
