Didn't see the first half, was in town for a meal with work cos one of the girls is leaving. (got a F***ing bollocking from some for putting work before me club - trust me wasn't my decision, got dragged to it)
Luckily, we fu**ed off to that kozys in town (they wanted to go kareoke) where the match was on. Over the bloody moon I was to see it.
Now surrounded by god knows how many (all got told to F**k off if they got in the way of the telly though), couple of bottles of ale inside me and the nerves of a European semi final me judgement may be a bit off on what I saw. But I've gotta be honest, I don't know where all this F***ing hard work from certain players is coming from.
The ones who I thought looked good were Yossi, Carra and Agger. The rest seemed very disappointing. Their goal was a F***ing embarrassing catelouge of errors. Was like so many we conceded in the Champions League (remember that competition?). Just switch off and allow them time and space to do what they want. Cross not being closed down by Johnson - there's a novelty - and that c**t Forlan cruising into the middle unmarked - another first for the season.
I've seen Aquilani's goal and it was a little peach, as for Yossi's - what a F***ing finish la. Was a beast. Chuffed to bits when that went in. The roof went off Kozys. We were F***ing rocking. Then that one F***ing mistake caused heartbreak. Sitting there surrounded by bitters didn't make it any better. Me and Chris just couldn't believe it.
The substitutions were strange but that's often the case with Rafa Benitez isn't it. Very rarely does he make three subs we all agree with.
The fans were excellent. Not surprising considering the few I seen in the Cabbage before we went to town. It was heaving in there. Took me back to when I was going the match on a regular basis. Got the butterflies right back only to F**k off out an miss the first half. Unfortunately though, that atmosphere isn't there all the time but that's a different kettle of fish all together right now.
Overall though, who cares we're out. It's only the Mickey Mouse cup, nobody really wanted us to win it if we're being honest. Only small clubs take this competition seriously.
In all honesty, I am disappointed we went out. But from what I saw, we didn't look like scoring anyway. Once they got their goal, I don't think we had another shot on target. That's not good enough. We had to score and didn't show the signs of doing so in the final 15 of extra time. Knackered or not, we still had to have that one final push. One last effort for a final in the Europa League and we just didn't have it.
Ah well. Always next year I suppose. But for now, our priority is beating Chelsea and Hull before we can start looking ahead to next year. We've got six points to play for in the League, so lets go all F***ing out and end this season on some sort of high.
Liverpool Football Club.
