Congratulations Liverpool on reaching the final of the Champions League, especially as you were playing against a team who are better than you (whatever that means).

I must say I have mis-judged Roman Abramovich quite badly. I thought he had changed the face of football by a cynical attempt to buy trophies where in reality he was following some Corinthian ideal to get a bunch of good old chaps together just to jolly well do the best they could and who cares if they win anything if they can claim to be the best team on the day.

The Olympic spirit lives on.

ps I am trying very hard not to think that the news that technical solutions developed by the military which prove that the ball didn't cross the line doesn't make the result even sweeter.....

.... but I can't!
