Haver Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 The whole 50 Years On thing is a savage joke. So if Terry had put it in, gone left a few inches, the United players would have sodomized the Munich Memory? A few inches between Fate and They Didn't Want It Enough? At least we beat the Champions of Europe twice this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Congrats to United, and pity to Chelsea who once again attempted to cheat to get their way. Anyone see Joe Cole hold his hands to his face and fall down after HE attacked a United player. Some nice saves from Van der Sar as well, feel sorry for Terry but hey, thats the game really. Was at the Measure watching this, should of heard every single person laugh and cheer when Drogba was sent off, and have a fit of rage everytime Chelsea did something out of the ordinary. It's only a pity that United can't do an open top bus tour with both trophies after the events of the Uefa Cup, would have been nice to see.

Daft Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Congrats to United, and pity to Chelsea who once again attempted to cheat to get their way. Yes indeed, they should follow the example United set, a bastion of fair play and sportsmanship. Except Tevez wanting to push up when the ball was kicked out for cramp, or Tevez again grabing Makalele's head in Chelsea's penalty box or Hargreaves holding his nose after being knocked on the side of the head, he seemed to recover pretty quickly when the decision went against him... Neither team "cheated" more than the other, grow up. As for Drogba, I hope his red card is the last ever contribution to Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddage Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I don't understand this attitude that Chelsea 'buy' success and Man United don't - Rooney £26m, Ferdinand, the most expensive british footballer in history at up to £33m, Carrick £18m... I think its the fact that Chelsea are only successful because they have spent all that money, before Abramavich game they were nothing like the team they are now. No one is denying that Man United have spent lots of money but the core of their success was from home grown talent, the likes of Scholes, Beckham, Butt, Neville, etc and cheap buys like Schimiecal (sp?). The majority of United's big buys came after they had been successful for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason we should be beaten by Dundee United but you never know with this kind of game. Do it for Tommy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamo Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Super Champions League Final! Feared it may have been a repeat of the 2007 FA Cup Final, but it was the complete opposite. Drama all the way through, even rivaling AC Milan vs. Liverpool in 2005 for excitement. I dislike Chelsea, but I did feel a little sorry for them, especially Terry. Apparently if Drogba had been on the pitch he would have taken the 5th penalty. Ronaldo's poor penalty effort deserved to be saved, though he did score an exquisite header. The CL went right down to the wire to round off a great season...well not quite yet, there's still the Play-offs . Here's hoping next year's as good.

Is Abramovich splashing millions on players really any worse than the Glaziers being allowed to plunge United into 750 million debt. Love the FA's fit and proper test for new owners. Letting an utterly bonkers debt plan through, a man with a horrific human rights abuse record, 2 clueless Americans, 2 Russians who both have very questionable business practices. You have to wonder who would actualy fail it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soag Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 OH YEA COME ON UNITED!!! Never been so happy after a cup fianl before, my heart was in my mouth the entire match. When it came to penalties I was crapping myself. Why everyone feeling sorry for Terry? I hate the prick no idea why but I always have, If any Chelsa player had to miss I'm glad it was him. He is a total arse. 3 Time champs of europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathjam Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I was so estatic yesterday that I hugged another man. May have been my best friend but man hugs are rare for me.
