    Back in November I bought tickets to see Muse on 1st June, not even considering it's the Champions League final that day. I now need to find someone else to have my Spurs supporting boyfriends ticket so he can watch the match on TV with his Dad...

    I was born in 1961, when Spurs did the double. Tonight my boys have learnt what it means to be a Spurs fan from the depths of despair to the heights of I don't know what. It doesn't matter whose was the best come back, what matters is both teams did. Be assured the final won't be a dull affair.

    I'm a Spurs fan, my brother is Liverpool. My mum's two brothers are Spurs and Liverpool fans. She has been a Spurs fan since a child but has been dreading this day since my brother said he wanted to support Liverpool! We always thought it would be the League Cup, maybe the FA Cup, but this is just unreal.

    I was watching the Only Fools and Horses Musical with my dad as a late Christmas present. Saw the 2-0 scoreline at half time. At the end of the show while singing "Down to Margate", Paul Whitehouse as Grandad starts shouting "Come on you Spurs" so I knew something special had happened!q

    Just watched highlights of both games, both Klopp and Pochettino at final whistle went straight to opposing managers and bench, not running on the pitch like many others , both are class acts and great role models we are lucky to have them here.

    Who do I want to win the final? No one is that allowed? Absolute nightmare.
