Does PHW look like some who'd be saying:

Never discount the old dudes. Biggest pervs around.

Just look at Coney. Old enough to be PHWs grandad and here he is perving on Pippas ass

Red blood still passes through my veins. Not necessarily everywhere, but it does flow. And to the important bits. Brain and dick. :good:

My first thoughts weren't about money yesterday. It was a flukey bunch of bus-parking ****s jamming their way to the big trophy. Reality is horrendous.

At the time of the match, my thoughts were just on making sure that my burger was grilled right at the house-warming barbie I was at. We just glanced at the telly now and again to see what the score was. This had nothing to do with hanging around outside where all the cleavage was.

Even Manu, with their record, had to buy a foreign manager and then bring in lots of foreigners. Ditto the big Liverpool period - Paisley build on what a scot had build, with a Welsh captain and welsh/scots to get his results.

Of course it's nothing new. But it a took a team of foreign internationals for us to win the league and break Man Utd's strong hold. We haven't grown from within and developed players. It's a mute point because we're still able to compete with Chelsea and Man City on the pitch. It's not as if we get thrashed each time we meet them. We just can't compete with the transfers. Under Wenger, I doubt we'd even be in contention for half of the players Chelsea and City sign. He doesn't sign players that are under the spotlight and involved in bidding wars. He can accuse clubs of inflating the market but only a fool would sell Wenger a good player for peanuts. We've bought undervalued players and sold them on for massive profits. That's no secret and clubs have taken note. He can't take advantage of the market in that way anymore so as much as he'd like to accuse clubs like City and Chelsea of inflating prices a lot of it has to do with his reputation. Now he has to rely on development and skills and coaching.

Yesterday, Chelsea, after offering next to nothing all game, equalised in the 89th minute having gone behind in the 82nd minute. Remarkable. It got me thinking, we haven't done anything of the like since Sampdoria in 1995. Going 3-1 down with barely a minute left in extra time and staring into the wilderness. Schwarz steps up and scores a free-kick and we go on to win the tie on penalties. From despair to joy within the short space of 10 minutes.

Who were we playing under on this great night of European football? Stewart Houston as caretaker boss. Has a comeback like yesterday's, or at Sampdoria in '95 ever happened under Wenger? I honestly can't remember one. Meaningless EPL games come to mind (equalising at Sunderland in injury time a few years back having gone a goal down in the 89th min)

We seem to be incapable of anything 'special' now. We have our excuses at the ready. The last 3 times an English team has won the Champions League against foreign opposition, they've either scored a late winner/equaliser (or both!) or come back from a massive deficit in 90 minutes of play. I honestly don't think we can do that....:(

What a night that was.

Look on the brightside

Spuds are out of the CL and Barca didnt win the CL. The latter happening would have been much worse for football

That is the reality
