Liverpool fan from Anglesey 'devastated' by cancelled flight to Champions League final

Bit of a farce really. I can understand the anguish of fans who had tickets but were stopped from entering the ground due to amount of fans without tickets hoping to buy a ticket from touts. French police were a bit heavy handed, but that was due to panicking fans who paid thousands reaction to the match starting, some drunk idiots on both sides causing problems throwing bottles etc.... But puzzled also why Ancelotti kept Gareth Bale on the bench for the entirety of the match without at least bringing him on at least for the last quarter of the match seeing it was his Real Madrid swansong? Other replacements came on that might have changed the balance of the match, good or bad, but why not Bale, a tried & tested winner? And yes, he got a winners medal and a record 5 titles to his name, but I'm sure Bale would have preferred to have earnt the medal rather than be given it just for turning up. Also I agree with ones who question fans from Wales who support English football sides over Welsh teams. I can understand if those fans living in Wales are English themselves but if Welsh is reprehensible? I suppose it mirrors politically Wales as a country where you have ones who often refer to themselves as British rather then Welsh, this usually done to appropriate aspects of English culture & sporting success due to their own lack of cultural awareness, self-esteem, loyalty to ones community& country, in this case a yearning for football success, be it club or international. And when it's pointed out, are often are indifferent or abusive, and state how they've supported English sides for years their reason they don't Welsh clubs. But that doesn't make a wrong right though. And If Welsh people who prefer putting millions into the coffers of Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and other English Premiership sides to our detriment put as much time, effort & money into supporting Welsh club sides who play in our Cymru Premiership they'd be able to compete in Europe, our premiership would flourish, investment and interest would pour in, clubs would attract players and we'd have sides that would nurture & produce the next Wales stars, but they choose not to. I might get negativity for this, but I don't care. I speak the truth and sometimes the truth hurts.
