Good morning everyone. My Dad has been on Facebook for three days and already I have had an email from him bollocking me for my language on there. If he thinks I'm bad God only knows what he thinks of his Grandchildren and their use of profanities.

Taxi from Epsom, collection from Sutton with a drop-off in Worcester Park done.

Not so many around here. There are a few Hungarians though.

Ha ha. Kebabs in Virginia. That would be a first.

Ah - sad to have missed it Wags. I really enjoyed that evening in Epsom. There needs to be a WUP outing to Virginia but we'd have to make our own kebabs...

I will concede this - to get the egos and bank accounts involved in that squad to go out onto any pitch and stick to that style of play must take something. That said, their Premiership performances have been woeful, so perhaps they were more motivated by the potential licensing deals - even then they have to listen to you and do what you say. Credit there.

SoCal, missed a marathon session yesterday at the Rising Sun. Got there 14:30 and left 23:30 fissed as a part. Bert turned up at 20:00 and a great time had by all.

but If he pulls it off ..... Cheshire I won't rewatch it , the tension I felt there I want to remember for ever . I made a cock up watching the cup final , another game I will Neve rewatch is the penalty win over Liverpool in the lge cup , anyone there at selhurst that night must rank that as one of the most amazing games they have ever seen. . how we won and ardleys penalty will always stay in my mind right it's bed time . Night all

And I know what your saying trigger , but finals are often games of chess these days , In fact football in general has turned into a chess game , mangers play to what they know they can. Bit like basset and Gould and the long ball . it's the reason I dislike TB as I feel we don't . But then again there is a very very very very small bit of me that admires him for wanted to play a system that is pretty and sticking to it . Although it Is a very small bit

CW - I must point out that it was really Vic that did all the work dubbing wdon on to the game...

I hope never . he had fuck all to do with it

Bb74 - I have watched our playoff final win from last season twice, one official, and the socal version with the wdon commentary, and I still found it a very good, absorbing game, which is what I felt this time last year

Heres a question: how long before that odious lowlife scumbag coke headed wankyfuckingcuntface ugly greasy haired moronic ficking cunt claims he groomed di ma fucking twatteo, to become a European chumpions league winning manager?

Yeah I get what you're saying. But tonight was dull and having spent the funds they've spent I don't think much credit is due given their negative approach to the final and semi final. Don't get me wrong I think Bayern and Barca are equally uncreditworthy. Not the first Champions League final to disappoint, not by a long stretch.

That club spent £7.5 million on a lump of lard as it was one massive diddle for 3 people involved...

Trigger I believe in credit where it's due . I watched the 88 cup final a few years ago for the first time since i was crushed at wembley as a boy , I believed it was the best game ever , the DVD I watched my god it was boring , and here is some advice from me to all , never rewatch that final keep your dreams , I won't watch rematches of the play off final either , tonight I congratulate Chelsea . And look ahead to our next glory night , it will come it may be shit to the football world , but you have to give Credit where it's due

Nah Bayern bottled it - far the better team but shat themselves. Barca bottled it too. Chelsea didn't play football tonight, not at all. Only Ashley Cole had a good game for them and that was all defensively (other than the pen).

I watched a club once that spent 7.5 million on one player . at the time the football world was shocked . Guess if clubs have money they spend it . Chelsea deserved this eve di Matteo played a way he knew he would have a chance with what he had . It's not cash that makes a club it's the manager using what he has wisely , I mean that club I'm talking about spent 7.5 million on a lump of lard . congrats to chelsea and di Matteo, Know your players play to your strenghth and the world is your oyster

Singapore - agree completely

Unlikely Silk. The FL were apparently offering the FTA highlights free. Reason being that it costs a fortune to film all the games etc and Sky don't have to pay anything (live games apart) even though they show the goals first. So even if they weren't free, any fee would be peanuts I would think.

So do we get any money from the BBC deal?

Chelsea are a disgrace to football - dull, dull, dull. One corner to Bayern's 24......grrr!!! Boring, negative, defensive football reigns supreme - disgusting. Hats off to Drogba as born match winner. But John Terry is an absolute disgrace to football and mankind. He should not be allowed to wear an England shirt. How disgraceful to be up there raising the cup and in full kit after playing no part in the game - what a glory seeking, sleezeball, shitball dross that scumball of a scotum is.

I put Chelsea in the same box as I put Newcastle. I went to Uni there (Newcastle) and watched as cash transformed them into a bottom-half Div One side with dwindling gates into a Premiership favourite with a 'fanatical Toon Army' - I hated them for that - but with the subsequent failure to win anything (still) and then the relegation and the re-promotion and new approach to life as a football club, I actually wish them well nowadays (though I thought they treated Hughton badly - but don't know the full details). Chelsea are just in that phase at the moment where they've left their personality behind and it's hard to like them. Same for Man City. Same was for Blackburn - remember when they were big? Who knows what will happen to these or any club, but right now I find Chelsea a little off-putting and would rather they failed than succeeded.

Bad egg, how many are you buying? Would it be less than 1?

It only took 9 years and £400,000,000,0000
