not to sound harsh but sack up fella. It's the CL semis against barca and they live 2 doors up from you, how do they not know you enough to know how much chels means to you? My Mrs had the girls coming around last wednesday before she was informed of the match. Wasn't best pleased but these are the joys. Plus if its early morning and your off the next day then go out, get drunk, come home and enjoy. You cannot miss it.

not as flimsy as the numbering but its not embroidered on.

The one when Robbie and the boys ran to the sideline and lay on their sides and pointed up. Years ago but brilliant http://www.mkdons.com/javaImages/97/83/0,,10420~3703703,00.jpg Sorry on my phone and don't know how to upload it so just check the link.

the sizes are the same as usual. You shouldn't have to go up 3 sizes unless you've put a severe amount of timber on

I'm with you on that mate. I've said before that at this stage each game is like a cup final and the boys will want to play every minute. Can't lose to le arse again.

eh Messi! 63 goals this season and an extremely natural finisher

yeah , in fairness its a fair assumption to make that barca will score at theirs because they have been prolific there but they really don't have a good record against us. Can't wait

plus he is expected to still be injured for that game

I never said barca would definitely score! I posed the question what if they score and my post wasn't advocating the defence or offence, just stating the quandary bobby Di faces.

I'm not, my nerves will have packed in by then

its a stick or twist match really. Hard to know what to do because I think the element of surprise could work as barca will be expecting us to do the whole defensive thing again. Maybe hit them all out attack from the kick off for a while to shake them up or as you say stay with the tried and tested defensive style. But what if they score? Do we sit back and try and get extra time and pens? Bit risky

Tekkers Mata

I honestly wouldn't change much, same as I said about the FA cup. These big matches require big players and big players respond favourably to these run ins.

thought the geezer last night was pretty fair

not to worry, that happens naturally after a sustained period of success/failure.

got to admire iniesta and his team mates. So trained are they that they can hold off the likes of big gaz until their big toe is inside the box and then they fold like a house of cards

I'm not sure we would get away with the same tactics as last night again.

Imagine going to JT aka ironman to complain about a sore wrist...this guy plays with broken ribs and takes kicks to the head for fun mountain man, do one

wankers want us to win so they can have an easy final apparently. Let's see who even gets to the final first ze Germans

on paper

I wouldn't if we are to play the same way as last night, it doesn't suit his game

Big man deserves a massive amount of respect.

it certainly will but its definitely doable

and if he doesn't play we might not get to the final. One game at a time
