Champions League Final 08

From reading this thread it is apparent that it was a very entertaining encounter for us as Drogba got sent off, Ronaldo missed and so did Terry.  As for the football it was crap, when all the players gathered around the ref, I thought of Eddie's concept of a mass exodus of players being sent off, but like usual one rule for us and another for the rest. 

Totally gutted as there is nothing worst than the scums winning our trophy.

One thing though with our brilliant campaign in the biggest competition in club football maybe we may get a bit of deserved appreciations from the media as now one of their most liked teams have touched the magic trophy, maybe not for us.  But who F***ing cares!  YNWA

This thread made the final interesting not the actual match well done everyone

When that c*nt Ronaldo missed his penalty..I thought ...that's it..the Football Gods : have finally come to there senses....years upon years of giving those Manc bas**rds all the luck in the world..Chel$ki hit the crossbar, the upright twice, but that tw*t still tries his cheating, dirty run up to take his penalty and misses . The Football gods have had enough  and up steps the captain of the Chavs to kick the winning penalty to end the Mancs years of Jammyness.

Why oh why did they change there mind? Maybe they just wanted to laugh at JT crying again 

I was devastated when he missed...you stupid b***ard JT. You've fu**ed up everything. I don't care about you or your team but until we win next year in Rome, where going to have to hear those Manc bas**rds being referred to as the current UEFA Champions. And for that alone I will hate you for the rest of my life.

What"s all this I've been reading about it being a boring game? It certainly wasn't boring, most Champions League Final's are boring, I can't remember another final apart from 2005 that was that entertaining. Do you remember that all Italian affair a few years ago, in the first few minutes I thought that the Italians were going to actually be entertaining because it looked like they were going for it but they reverted to type very quickly and bored the pants off us all...

This was a good game, the first half was all United until Chelsea fluked an equaliser but then Chelsea were best in the second half, I hate penalties because it's not football that wins in the end, it's just who can score from 12 yards. Anyone can miss a penalty, the worst player in the world can score a penalty and the best player in the world can miss, it's a total lottery...

But if either side had to win when it comes down to penalties then I'm glad it was us.............

With Avram Grant waiting to discover his fate, Nicolas Anelka has added to the mood of despondency at Stamford Bridge by openly criticising his under-fire manager.

With the Israeli already fearing the worst, despite leading Chelsea to within one penalty kick of winning the biggest prize in European club football for the first time in their history, Anelka has added his weight to the debate. The France forward, know as "Le Sulk" says he is fed up of being played out of position, and also claims he was introduced into Wednesday's Champions League final without being given the chance to warm-up.

Anelka has failed to make a significant impact since he joined Chelsea from Bolton Wanderers in January. He has often had to settle for a place on the bench, behind Didier Drogba, or has been deployed in wide positions. However his season reached a low-point in Moscow when, after coming on for the final ten minutes of extra time, Anelka's decisive penalty was saved by Edwin van der Sar.

"I didn't come here to play on the left or right," he said. "When I came here, people told me I would play in a 4-4-2. In England, I no longer need to prove that I am better through the middle. Since I arrived, I haven't played in my position. Never as a number nine, always on the left or the right.

Isn't Anelka's nick-name so fitting? We have Fernando ''EL Nino'' Torres, they have Nocolas ''Le Sulk'' Anelka. Hilarious.

  dry your eyes nicky or should i say "Le Sulk" maybe if you managed to play half decent football you'd be playing  and poor avram, i must say i do find him rather funny as my vice principle looks like him

Oh my God. How funny were Terry's and Anelka's misses!
I did watch the game in the end, with a Chelsea fan I know from Uni. By the end I was glad to see Man Utd win it, seeing Giggs that happy made me smile
Boring game though, except for the goal, slap incident and penalties!

Sorry Nic, did I hear you correctly, you were glad the Scum won OUR trophy !  they are not the words of a true LFC fan believe me !

It's probably due to the fact that she is resigned to losing Aaron Ramsey to them!

Sorry Nic, did I hear you correctly, you were glad the Scum won OUR trophy !  they are not the words of a true LFC fan believe me !

Are LFC fans becoming increasingly tolerant of the Mancs?

thats because Nicola is a Cardiff fan, Liverpool are her second club

Yes, (thanks Smigger) and, I wasn't glad they won it and Liverpool didn't.. but glad they won it and not Chelsea.

I know a couple of Chelsea fans, they're mates of mine and I don't like Chelsea at all but I don't hate Chelsea as much as they hate United... 

Come to think of it, the only people I know who don't hate United are fellow United fans........................

C'est la vie.............. .................
