Hmmm 1 all at Stamford Bridge, 3-0 at Old Trafford and 6 points behind in the league having played 1 game extra suggests that this isn't the case.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1! -
No shot @ goal for 92 minutes from apprently the highest scoring team in the world.....3 penalty calls n that clearly showed who deserved that...for fook sake UEFA, even a League 1 or Conference ref wud hv got it right......
As didier said , its a "f****ng disgrace"...n thats it...
People who are blaming Drogba......@least he created some chances (including best chance of 1st leg) as opposed to the likes of Messis,Xavis and Iniestas.......And in away leg, it was Gus's tactics that achieved something which no team has ever achieved this season....In both legs they had messi at their mercy in the back pocket n that tells the story.....
From a neutral perspective, jus had a chat with a die hard Celtic fan (who dont like Chelsea/England) and a Messi admirer, he himself said that he never saw barca playing that crap and Ref ruined it for Chelsea.
Lets face it, at the end of the day, Platini didnt want 2 English teams in Final again, and that costs us....
Anyways, Good Luck to Guardiola et.al for the finals, and they'll ruin that old arrogant pensioner.Comment

The sending of was a disgrace. A total dive and I am glad they got their lot after that. Drogba was throwing himself to the ground as soon as he had the ball.
A Man U Vs Barca game was what the sport wanted and I am glad it ended up that way.Comment

Sorry, but it's a case of just desserts for Chelsea. You can't put 8-9 men behind the ball with a half goal lead. And you shouldn't cheat."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

I did actually laugh out loud when they scored, 92nd minute
2 penalties not given if not more.
And the look on John Terry's face after? Priceless!
Did Drogba get arrested?
And who was that bloke on the right for Barca? He was actually worse than me, until the 1 cross that led to the goal...Bored.Comment

What goes around comes around.
Chelsea 'cheat' the ref week in week out in getting penalties and free kicks around the box from 'fouls'.
Well done Barca.Comment

apart from when things were getting a little desperate and Messi went down on the edge of the box and no one touched himOriginally posted by minestrone View PostExactly, Barca never played well but they never went out to blatently cheat.Comment

and he is the reason they didn't go through, he should have buried the chance last night - or rolled it to Essien.Originally posted by denver2k View Post

The pure anger in Ballacks face was worth it.

I'm glad they never went through and I think Drogba and Ballack will get lengthy bans.
But I don't think either will be playing for Chelsea next season.Comment

When that late goal went in I thought I heard the world's smallest violin play for Chelsea.
I could have been mistaken because I was laughing very hard!
