yay! Barcelona 1 Madrid 3! And Sid Lowe reckons that Barca are washed up. Has the world been saved from death by tikitakytoki?

Obviously the grass was a bit long in that area!

I'm just boggled that someone actually sits through every match counting...

It was embarrassing!

Our manager chose the most defensive & negative line up he possibly could, ok, I can understand that, to not concede early was the aim. But to goin at HT 2-0 down having been humiliated was an opportunity to do "something", after all, we had 3 very good, fast wingers as subs, but our manager chose to replace a defender with a defender. He told us all he'd given up after 45 minutes. Of course we were going to lose, that's not the point, bloody hell, there is going out fighting whilst providing some shred of hope or entertainment for your fans, or, lying down and whimpering whilst you get flogged.

Parkinson out! Take your defend at all cost tactics, whether it's Swansea or bleedin Accrington, with you.

Glad I didn't fly in from Oz.

I agree with you i so wanted Bradford to win,it would have been a fairy tale to tell.Why oh why they did not go hammer and tongs at Swansea i will never know.once chance at glory and history,and he tried to keep the score down,he failed badly,just once play till you drop dead.No shame in going down trying but to see how they lost ,terrible.

I think you underestimate him. Now he is walking away from Chelsea even if they sack him next week. That makes him just that little bit more likely to get the Madrid job.

And, yet again, Abramovich, Buck and Gourlay look like chumps. They sack managers without having a clue about the replacement, and when they sacked Di Matteo (who, in a move reminiscent of Stalin's doctoring of pictures has now been edited out of Chelsea's photographs of the Champions League win) they really did think that Guardiola would put his name to a contract. And then, lo and behold, they discovered that their choices were down to Benitez, Benitez and, er, Avram Grant.

over in the scented chambers of P+Lite, an elderly lawyer asks why Terry would be paying for the Chelsea Women's football kit. I reckon that Terry has his eye on management, on doing a Dalglish. What say you?
