UEFA’s competitions director Giorgio Marchetti said in response to the Gunners’ letter: “An all-English final played by two London teams was not a very predictable event at the time of the appointment.“This has added significant difficulties to the event logistics. We are really sorry for the problems that your (and Chelsea’s) fans are encountering trying to organise their journey to Baku.“Our experts are keenly working on this matter with a view to help find cheaper solutions for travelling fans. We would welcome a joint effort with your club in this respect.’Both clubs have already recruited Thomas Cook to come up with a 979-per-person day-trip to Baku to reduce costs. Arsenal described the situation as ‘unacceptable and cannot be repeated’, but Marchetti defended UEFA’s decision to pick Baku as the host venue.He added: “It is fair and due not only to give other fans the possibility of a unique live experience, but also to stage events which can boost the promotion of football in an entire region.“That’s why UEFA would consider it unfair to exclude venues based on their decentralised geographical position.”
