Champions League 2008/2009

Frankly, there is more atmosphere on the moon than that lot made tonight. Goodison was rocking for the Villareal game a few seasons ago in a CL qualifier. This was a SF! Their pitiful decline started EXACTLY nineteen years ago today, Sunday April 8 1990 at Villa Park. FA Cup SF v Palace. Sadly.......er.....we still talk about it today!

X Quarter final

Do the q/final losers go into u.e.f.a. cup ?

No - they go out full stop - then they claim their not ars*d because they are concentrating on the league (see martin o'neill )

Chelsea were the better team on the night. Had plenty of chances, Drogba missed some sitters.

Torres and Kuyt had a few good chances but they did nothing in the 2nd half.

Essien kept Stevie GBH quiet all game.

That just sums up Liverpool, stop Gerrard and they are nothing. When our FA Cup semi comes up, the RS will have nothing to play for. Happy days are here again.

X Quarter final

Ta, obviously not usually paying attention to the CL. I mean, it's not like we (Palace) will ever be in it.

Bison bossing Stevie G all day long, superb game.

WHAT A GLORIOUS NIGHT, THE SKY IS FULL OF STARS TONIGHT

Bison bossing Stevie G all day long, superb game.

Essien had Gerrard in his pocket much the same way as Jags done to Torres. Stop these two and the Liverpool cogs begin to rust.

Is The Machine the best midfielder in the world?

A belated HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know these bastards are like Haloween's Mike Myers and you should never count them out but, regardless of that, that was funny as **** seeing them destroyed.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Wow from Barca. A joy to behold.

Have to say I'm looking forward to watching some semi-finals without all the 'emotion' of Manchester United and Liverpool.

Would not write Manure off just yet. If they return to their best, they COULD beat Porto. They only have to nick a 1-0 after all.
