It staggering how the mighty have fallen, all down to the whimsical ideas of a very rich Man.

Very rich man got us there. It really is mixed emotions chippy.

How could I ever forget that night, I went through so many extreme emotions I was left feeling physically sick,with my head banging and a great sense of joy. UP THE CHELS!

The whole team was fantastic that night especially Ramires.

I went mad after that match only thing i remember was coughing, sneezing, weeing and pooing myself at the same time. 

I honestly think rambos goal at the camp nou is the best goal ever scored in the champions leauge.

Wow time flies. Probably the closest ive come to crying in a football match, Ramires was a hero that night.

Yes you are partially right there BG...the reality was though that it was the belief of the manager and his belief in the players and the players belief in him that really got us there...not the clueless man with the money.

Then again, without the "clueless man with the money" we wouldn't have got the manager or the players.

Get in a plane cockpit, turn on the engine, fiddle about with the lever and press enough buttons, eventually it might take off.

 

Doesn't mean you know what you are doing.

 

Or that you can repeat it.

And to hold Barca in their own back yard and with ten men, must of pissed UEFA right off. Great achievement, I even cheered torres. Seems a life time away.

strange thing is that i think our starting line up this season is stronger than last season. just miss drogba

Longest 100 minutes of my life, and look how far Barca have fallen since then, looks like we've well and truly ended their "reign" of Europe.

brilliant and funny because spuds were choking!

We ended it. Bayern obliterated any hope of regaining it (knock on wood... still one leg to go).

 

Puts a smile on my face.

Amazing night, I watched the final in the local supporters club, but the nou camp game in my house with a few mates.

As soon as Terry was sent off I, like most of us thought it was curtains.

The organisation, grit, steel and determination was nothing short of incredible. The Ramires goal, the tackling, the never say die attitude.

When the ball was lofted at the end and it fell to Torres I knew he wouldn't mess this one up (his only stand out moment for me in a Chelsea shirt).

All I remember was being on the edge of my seat for the whole game, when Torres went round the keeper and tucked it away all I remember is running around the living room like a child and roaring my head off. Amazing night!

It actually makes me sad to think about it. The man who not only beat Napoli (a very strong team last season) then got past Barca and then Bayern on their home ground wasnt given a fair chance and our board gave him the boot at the first chance they got.
