On another note, I was sat in 525 and I ended up sitting next to two West Indian Chelsea fans who were in their early 30's and grew up around Parsons Green. They'd been following Chelsea all their life and and qualify according to the rules to top it all off. With the match progressing the chants/shouting from 2 rows behind us get more and more unsavoury. Adebayor songs etc and plenty of other stuff, in the 30th minute the "dad" starting shouting "Drogba, you f*ing lazy bck c*nt, to which one of the 2 guys responded along the lines of "enough of the racism". The chavvy family got up and nearly attacked the poor bloke. He went to security to address and because of it he missed the rest of the game.
It's really unbelievable that this behaviour is still semi tolerated and happening. It's put me off going to a game and not sure how those two guys felt. Paying good money to see your team and putting up racist behaviour and to top it all off having to miss the majority of the match because of the paperwork that needs to be completed is a farcical. I really hope the Chelsea FC / Wembley Plc take action.
Other than that it was an excellent game by Chelsea and Spurs were absolutely rubbish, to say that Parker played a good game because he works hard is a joke as well, Bale on the other hand looked very dangerous whenever he was involved. Van der Vaart is the most tactically indisciplined player I've seen in a long time.
