Congratulations to Chelsea, first London team to win the European Champions League or the Champions Cup. It was a fine performance, and my felicitations for that.
Your team is still shit, your ground is still a kennel, and your fans belong in a zoo, now more than ever.
Couple of comments:
John Terry really is an utterly classless yob, who makes me ashamed to be a Londoner. Dressed in full playing kit? What an utter knob.
Drogba, on the other hand, showed real class, first by commiserating with the Bayern players, in particular Robben, Lahm & Schweinsteiger, and second by taking the cup over to RA, who, after all, paid for the players who won it. An ex of mine is a free-lance snapper, and did a shoot with Drogba for a french mag. She said he was absolutely lovely, had no airs, no minders, and no 'big man' attitude. I know he's not popular with fans of other clubs, and I remember how much stick he got when he first came to Chelsea, all that crap about what a waste of money he was, that he was hopeless, worse than a Sunday league player, i.e. all the sort of utter rubbish that utterly clueless armchair 'players' come out with based on a totally shallow appreciation of the game.
What a player he has shown himself to be. Only a total fool could not now accord the title of a true great of the modern game. Arsene Wenger said 'great players win games; all the rest is just talk'. That is exactly what he did last night. It hurts me to say it, but he was brilliant last night.
