Excellent result for Chelsea and high time an English club won something against the Germans on penalties. :D

It wasn't pretty and they had to hang on in there but to beat Barcelona and then Bayern in Munich is a fantastic feat!

Well done Chelsea!!!!!!!!

Not really...that was the rules...so Tottenham knew them when they started the season..but hoped it wouldn't happen

Que sera sera

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

Tottenham can do nothing about it. They were the better team this season and they get it taken from them over something they have no control over. How is that fair?

An £50 million striker won't take a pen, what's that all about.:rolleyes:

this season has burnt the football nation as a whole

Gibbs block vs West Brom... you bloody beauty Gibbsy!!!

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

We came so so close to it being us in Spurs' shoes tonight. Thank god for Fulop.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

Because they knew what the rules were....and everyone was playing to those rules.

Whilst it is a shame tottenham...Tottenham knew that it could happen

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

Yes, they can't sue anyone. However it was always unlikely that a team that can't finish in the top four can win the Champions League. Spurs were the better team by far this season. I feel awful for them.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

i dont. i dislike the fact Chelsea are the first club from London to win the CL but Tottenham are now screwed :LOL:

McLeish is gone though :tu:

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

People were moaning in 2005 when Liverpool won the CL and failed to qualify in terms of league position. Back then, it was a grey area, and rules were amended so this wouldn't happen again. All teams entering the PL knew the rules at the start. No-one was mugged.

Having said that: Football didn't win tonight. It's sad to see anti-football win. And one has to wonder why. Chelsea looked very threatening when they went forward. It's a shame they decided to park the bus and only play a quarter of the game.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

but then you have to consider Bayerns chances, Barcas. they failed to score. thats anti football, passing the ball to death and as a Arsenal fan I know how that feels.

Chelsea got lucky but when push come to shove up the other end they scored, they responded. I feel weird sticking up for them but its fact. Bayern failed, Barca failed, Napoli failed.... Chelsea stood up tall against attack after attack and got rewarded. again its not their problem that the teams facing them failed to score many goals.

They faced us inbetween the Barca fixtures. We should have won by many goals but failed to score. it ended in a draw.

Truly sensational. Brilliant job Chelsea.

Couldn't have shouted in joy any louder than I did when Drogba scored the winning penalty.
