Before I start this blog I would just like to clear something up. As a Liverpool fan, and not bitter in the slightest that we weren't in the final...honest, I didn't want either Chelsea or Manchester United to win last night. If I had my way, they would have called it quits at half time and all gone to the pub.
But as it was, I thought it was quite fitting for Manu to win in the 50th anniversary year of the Munich air disaster and the look on Bobby Charlton's face was worth the, begrudging, decision that it was best for them to win. Now I wish Alex Ferguson would retire and give someone else a chance to win the league.
But my heart definitely goes out to John Terry, he's the one player I actually like in the Chelsea team, and I'm sure there are plenty of people who share my view. To put so much hard work in through the season and the match only to miss a penalty must be gutting beyond belief.
I can only hope that it isn't what people remember him for. Instead, let's remember Ronaldo's miss - less time in front of the mirror and more penalty practice Cristiano?? - and the satisfying moment when Drogba got his comeuppance for all the season's moaning and diving and was shown the big red.
And one last tip for the Chelsea fans, perhaps you should your replace your 'scouse free zone' banner with a 'trophy free zone' one.....
