He was the ref tonight and lost a few pounds, too.

I think you're onto something. Maybe I was wrong and Avram Grant was the referee, he came back to get his revenge for Chelsea sacking him! Platini tapped him up!

[Anpanman]

Bugger, had to have an early night to get up for an early start (already been up over an hour) so missed all this, wish I'd stayed up now now.

Some of the banter over in the Chelsea thread is priceless.

Much prefer Barca in the final, if we were to lose much rather have Barca doing it over us with pure football rather than Chelsea playing the boring stuff and their players beating people up just because they didn't get a particular throw-in etc.

yeah... 4 blatent penalties, some of which stopped clear goal scoring chances. That's the same as not getting a throw in.

Every other attack Barcelona fouled or came close to fouling a chelsea player.
