david_carnell Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Cor! Cracker of a game for the neutrals amongst us. 2-2 now. That free kick would still be travelling now of the net hadn't been there.

Keef Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Shows what confidence can do really. Quite sad that their fans are still saying Liverpool have fucked it up, you'd think they'd give their team some credit.

Keef Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Well, the boys done good, and fair play to Chelsea, they sorted themselves out in the second half.Gutted to go out, but a great match!Oh, and Quids, your lot did fuck it up ;-) *runs away giggling and hides* Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/57/#findComment-191933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikecg Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 It was a great game Keef should be proud of them they played well and it could have gone either way. Chelski's defence is looking a bit naff tho' going by the number of goals and with what went on at the weekend. Barcelona is going to be a great game or could it be a 1 all pile of old snoooz, some how I doubt it.

red devil Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Great game of footy, 'pool do deserve credit Keef, no one really gave them a hope and they nearly pulled it off, certainly gave Chelski a big scare, Barca will finish them off...(tu) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/57/#findComment-191939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keef Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I said "the boys done good", I'm proud of the effort. Chech is not the player he was, and they missed Terry, but both teams were rubbish at the back. Makes for exciting stuff.

citizenED Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 After what Benitez said recently it was obviously in the game plan all along for pool to lose tonight so thatt they can pip Utd for the Premiership. Good thinking Rafa. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/57/#findComment-191969 Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew123 Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 What a game! I was lucky enough to be at the Bridge tonight, and I think everyone was a winner.Probably in the cold light of day Liverpool will regret mistakes made but that's football. Just goes to show when you cut loose amazing things can happen. Liverpool can be proud of their fightback and in case anyone was in any doubt it proved they're not a one man team.EDIT: I retract the bit about everyone was a winner, as of course Drogba was playing and he is one big bag of shit that most fans would happily have a whip round to have deported.

Tony.London Suburbs Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Fabulous Match, absolutely superb for which both teams deserve the utmost praise.Highlight of the night wasn't any of the 8 goals though.It just HAS to be Drogba rolling back onto the pitch when injured off the pitch..sheer class from the boy...(tu)(td) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/57/#findComment-191992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annasfield Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 It's "Babel" Very proud of the lads tonight and our support. Sometimes things aren't meant to be. Rafa couldn't win whatever he did he'd have been slated. Number 19 is just there - it's just within our grasp but I think just out of reach. YNWA the 96 - Justice is deserved for them and those affected. Tonight isn't important in the grand scheme of things.

Mick Mac Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Missed last nights game unfortunatley - I'm old enough to rememeber the Liverpool Everton 4-4 draw and that was great fun.Friend at work was there last night and said it was the best game he'd ever seen. I was in Tandoori Nights having a quiet curry with my uncle and have to admit was rather aghast when I found out the score. Wss expecting an early Chelsea goal to end the excitement and a drab affair - seems Liverpool get better and better. I'm now officially worried about my MU bet for the title.

matthew123 Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 It was 20 years ago today, 15th April 1989, when 96 perished at Hillsborough. I remember listening to Radio 2 awaiting another FA Cup semi final commentary when the tragic news started to be broadcast. When you read the stories and see the footage and remember back to that fateful day, well.... YNWA.
