Football fans in ticket hold-up
Two football fans in Paris have held a group of councillors in a town hall at gunpoint, demanding tickets for Wednesday's Champions League final.
The men, threatening to shoot one of the councillors in the foot, demanded to see the mayor to get tickets.
When they realised the mayor was not there, they fled empty-handed. The town hall in the suburb of Saint-Denis usually gets tickets as it is home to the stadium where the Barcelona-Arsenal match will be played. Tickets for the final between the Spanish and English sides at the Stade de France are changing hands on the black market for anything from 500 euros to 2,000 euros (£300-£1,300).
The two masked men broke into the town hall late on Monday night and burst into the council meeting, brandishing a gun. There, they took 13 councillors hostage and said they wanted to see the mayor to get tickets for the match.
"They said they were going to shoot us. We did as we were told. They were asking for 'stadium tickets' and looking for the mayor," deputy mayor for health Stephane Prive told the AFP news agency. No-one was injured, but the councillors were left in shock, says the BBC's Caroline Wyatt in Paris.
On Tuesday, the mayor of Saint-Denis said no tickets for the final were being kept at the town hall - even though his office does get an allocation for most matches played at the Stade de France.

Come on the Barca.
Arsenal are a bunch of French poisoners with an arrogant twat for a manager and a double-dealing cock for a chairman.
Anything less than a 4-NIL drubbing and Ronaldinho hat-trick and I'll be disappointed.

Barca are not to be held up high as the promoters of Spanish let alone Catalonian football.

How do you figure that one out? I'm not saying they have as many Spanish team players as they might do, but with Valdes, Puyol, Oleguer and Xavi regulars and all of them Catalan as well as Spanish, I think you will struggle to find many other teams with as many local boys in the team.
