    No, they're still going under the name Racing Club de France, and play in the 5th tier.

    PSG a much better team now rather than individuals. Played well tonight and pretty much every time I’ve seen them in the knockouts, barring a second half at Villa Park when they got a bit flustered.

    Wouldn’t mind Inter getting a goal back though to make it interesting.

    What a terrible final it’s been. Inter have been absolutely horrific.

    PSG are a fantastic team and deserve to win the champions league. Inters glory was beating Barcelona in the semi's.

    Finding the commentary a bit frustrating with them waxing lyrical about how good PSG are. The main reason being that inter are just that bad. Shame Barca didnt make the final as I think it would have been a more fitting final.

    It's a real shame Inter made the final because they've been absolute cack. Whilst I don't think Barcelona would have beaten this wonderful PSG side they'd have made at least made a better spectacle of it.

    Inter aren't great, but PSG have been very impressive throughout the whole tournament, great to watch.

    Inter haven’t been good at all but not sure I agree. PSG have been excellent. I think they play a completely different sport to the one we watch down at Oakwell.

    Absolutely fair play for blowing the whistle bang on 90.

    Sorry if this is boring but if you're interested in the culture and fans history of clubs, PSG are a fascinating case. Up to the late 2000s they had an absolute cauldron of a home atmosphere with the two ends (Kop de Boulogne and Virage Auteil) behind the goal comprising of very different fan groups who were often as against each other as they were the opposition. It made for an odd but almost unrivalled atmosphere where they would be singing to each other half the time and then come together for other chants. There was a huge crackdown on these groups following an increase in violence. The Boulogne End who were the original fan group for the club have never returned but the other end have seemingly regrouped.

    Anyway on to tonight, some side PSG! Been the best side all year and fair play to them tonight because I fancied Inter.

    Must be a new phenomenon!

    In all seriousness, I love watching them play. As you say, they play brave and forward, they work so hard off the ball and they have players who are technically brilliant.

    Successful sportswashing equals death of football.

    Yep it’s great after winning the biggest game in their history the only way they can celebrate is to wreck their own city….pillocks.
