It was a classic game of 2 halves with Chelsea getting battered in the first half and the Mancs pummelled in the 2nd half.

Chelea hit more woodwork than Jewson's and really should have won it in normal time but it had the air of 99 when Bayern dominated the game only for the Mancs to snatch it at the death and didn't Clive revel in reminding us ! He went on and on and on and on about it throughout the game and it detracted from the commentry. NO mention of Liverpool FC whatsoever until Anelka stepped up to take what would prove to be the decisive (or shouid that be indecisive) penalty ! 

Mind you the Mancs winning on penalties might stop them crawing about our penalty win in 05 but somehow I doubt it. For those who are familiar with the Manc Fans chants they will have heard their famous "We won it 2 times" song belted out with much glee which just about sums up their odious fanbase  

I doubt UEFA will be in a rush to get back to Moscow with its dull and flat atmosphere. We all knew Chelsea wouldn't sell their allocation but I was surprised that the Mancs didn't either. Maybe all that success in recent years has gone to their heads after all.

Some observations from the game :

1. Evra's elbow on Cole was missed by the people that matter in these things.

2. Chelsea got very little in terms of decisions particaulrly from the assistants.

3. Giggs is playing on memory after a long and illustrious career.

4. Scholes's smack on the nose actually improved his appearance !

5. Ronaldo's high on quality but has no class whatsoever. With past players like Cantona and Beckham we gave them the bird because they were very good players but with Ronaldo it's because he's a !

6. The FA, SKY and UEFA are so far up Fergies backside they might just possibly be chewing the same gum !

Hi tithead, there are many united fans who could do with asking themselves the same question. From the sound of some of the songs sung frequently at united games I'd say you have your fair share of 1 eyed reds as well !

No one is arguing that your team have been the best in the League this season, the League table doesn't lie and to go through  CL campaign without tasting defeat is quite an achievement.
