The season ended in the best possible way. Woolwich won the league, but then lost the biggest game of their lives in gut wrenching fashion.

It's now tainted their season and the overriding emotion will be disappointment.

There is no other possible scenario in which Woolwich can win a league title yet feel gutted going into the summer. The only way is for them to have got into the CL final and then lost, so for that we must be thankful.
It's certainly going to piss all over their parade of losers.
 
So I was just looking at the full match stats here:

I know it won't happen, even though PSG are a class side, I hope the Goons get called out for that quite frankly pathetic performance, can you imagine if we put in stats like that for a CL Final? Oh wait, the media did rake us over the coals for a poor performance in a CL Final and have given us fuck all credit for being an unfancied team to make it in the first place.
 
Is this correct between 2006 champions league final & 2026 champions league final goons have only lost 1 game in open play 90minutes final v Barcelona……..28 games! Oh well
Well they lost twice to PSG in open play in last year's champions league semi so I'd say that stat is wrong.

And they also lost to Inter last year as well

Plus sporting Lisbon the year before

And Bayern Munich....

I can't be arsed to go further back but it's worth noting that after 2017 they failed to qualify for Champions League for six years anyway.

You had this one saved in your drafts didn't you, you fool 😆

I don't think lucidity is a failing of mine, thankfully.

Just goes to show however that words or predictions count for sh!t, even when people say I have a feeling.

We all have feelings,. Some maybe are a bit more perceptive or keyed-in than others but nobody has dominion on getting it right.

That lot went like Ted Rodgers - 4,3,2, and just about got the 1, unfortunately.

Alright Shakespeare calm down
 
Yep he’s a prick. Him and his stupid coat.
These guys have big ego's and want their replacements to fail to make themselves look good.

Fergie picks David moyes as his successor. He knew what he was doing leaving when he did with an aging squad.

I remember how pissed Wenger was when they announced he was leaving like he was personally wronged and not absolute shit that season and lucky to be even given that season and as much time as he was when he was past it. He wouldn't stop talking about how he rejected the entire world to stay at Woolwich a decade prior as if they should be grateful.
 
Supposedly 700k up to 1m of them at the parade . With that big a fan base you would think there was actually a physical place called Woolwich .
Well obviously there is a place called Woolwich , there is just not a place called Woolwich


I actually love how autocorrect makes it impossible for me to make my point
 
I will never understand why Saka wasn't penalised for handball in the box .......

He handled it twice inside of two seconds......the first one you can kind of at least make a case, but the second one, he's basically just batting the ball back into his path?????

That should have been a penalty all day and every day.
 
I was very worried before the shoot out as I felt that PSG keeper was fairly rubbish and had the look of a fellow who if he was still playing wouldn’t have saved a penalty. I was convinced Raya would save more. I was correct on that front but thankfully he didn’t have to save any.

First golden rule in a shootout. If the opposition keeper is not too hot, at least keep your penalties on target.
I hope the England coaches were watching and don’t put Eze anywhere near the top 10 pen takers!

Horrendous decision that, you have to punish clumsiness in football. There’s no one near him and the ball wasn’t blasted in close proximity, yet he's handballed it with both fucking hands. He looked like an amateur dealing with a bouncing ball in the biggest game of the year. It should be punished, ffs.

As you said the second hand actually batted the ball in his path again, if that doesn't happen a PSG player might of been able to get possession of the ball, even if that wasn't the case and it didn't put the ball in his path, he's still completely fucked up the clearance and the balls hit both of his hands, its a pen. If you're not going to give handball for that what are you going to give it for?
