LOL how sad is that just cause Brum came 3rd in '72 (and even sadder of me looking it up on wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FA_Cup_Third-fourth_place_matches)

Or The Welsh Cup - a traditional carve up by the four Welsh clubs (remember Newport County) for a place in Europe, even though it was often won by an English giant such as Shrewsbury Town or Hereford United...

Listening to Porto Chelsea on R5, it seems there is a player called "jerkoff" playing? Is this true, or just Alan Green's accent.

[Mick Mac]

Some good saves from the Besiktas keeper towards the end gives them the win at OT.

(some punters must have lost a few quid on that result I imagine....).

[Bluerevolution]

Nice one Besiktas !

Obviously disappointed to see Liverpool knocked out of CL last night especially since they were in one of the weakest groups. Having said that there has been some good football in other groups. A few teams I've enjoyed watching with their technique and movement has been the Russian sides Rubin Kazan and CSKA - quite refreshing from the usual power and pace of the Premiership challenge. I think that the Russian challenge will only get stronger in coming seasons. Now wearing my neutral hat I hope we get back to no one country dominating the latter stages - as much as we found 3 Italian teams in the Semi finals boring I am sure the rest of the World have found 3 from the PL in each of the last 3 seasons being equally dull. ITV and Sky will, of course, not be happy..

[Mick Mac]

I agree matt. The european semis need a european dimension. Nothing worse than an all english final. Nice to see one english team against the best europe has to offer.

Simod Cup anyone?

[Ted Max]

Millwall gold - start at about 40 seconds. Features an ageless George Graham and Tony.LondonSuburbs getting punched to the ground by one of his own players at 3:28.

(Warning - large quantities of Danny Baker)

 

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Ah, the old Den. Not sure what was most striking - Danny Baker with hair or the brevity of the shorts.
