I know that feeling all too well.
Don't listen. Peasy.
He's such a prick
On a side note, it really annoys me that everyone who is trying to give us credit in their articles and comments keeps bringing up Pool and their match and lumping the two events together as if they are one and the same, or that we were the fucking encore. What we did last night and over the course of this campaign is a far bigger achievement. We have a much weaker squad, we were in much worse shape and form going into the semi, and they have a lot more money and have spent a lot of that to build a cherry picked team exactly to their manager's specifications. Plus we were playing away from home in a much more competitive match against Ajax who kept attacking and posed a huge threat right to the end, unlike Barcelona who were terrible and had given up early on. We have come back from the brink so many times this season, it's been an incredible story, but the fucking media with their love for those cunts, will not acknowledge it.
Read through a load of this thread during breaks at work today, and it's fucking glorious.
I'd made my peace with the fact we were going out by half time, and was at least grateful that my nerves weren't gonna go through the mill, like they did in the last round. I'd explained that to my wife about 2 seconds before Lucas scored his first, and so I had to tell her to ignore everything I'd just said. From that moment it was edge of the seat stuff. When the second went in I turned to her and was very insistent that Moura would score hat-trick, but I think she thought I was going mad. When the winner went in I couldn't stop shaking for about an hour. I woke our 1 year old up celebrating that goal, but whatever! My missues had gone to bed about 15 mins earlier, after I told her that Spurs seemed to score in the CL after she's gone to bed, and she came running downstairs when she heard me celebrating.
Haven't been able to stop reading stuff about the game all day. So proud of the team and excited that Spurs will be doing something I never truly thought I'd ever see. Obviously I hoped I would, but always thought something would go wrong, like it normally does!
For about 5-10 minutes before we scored I kept thinking about what the feeling might be like if we did get a third, but it was so much better when it actually happened.
We could've made it easier for ourselves, but would that feeling at the final whistle have been any better if we'd done it in any other way? I doubt it

There's an English word: epicaricacy.
There's a phone-tapping gag in there somewhere, but fuck him.... Creativity far better spent elsewhere.
Genuinely didn't know that, you learn something every day.
Still doesn't quite have the ring to it that schadenfreude does.
Needs a better manager than Pep-lite or the latest pretender at Barca.
what - us playing Eintracht Frankfurt?
Internally: "Why don't players play like that for me anymore?"
Cos you're an anti-football cunt Jose....
Obviously Sandras are much loved by their other halves. Look after her x
...The Chinese one obv.
A room full of guys that on any other day hate our guts. The amount of disrespect they're going to show us once they start talking about the game vs. Liverpool will be sickening.
Fuck them all
So despite liking reggae, this lot are generally right cunty basically.

Nice sentiment, but no CL and no trophy would be far more painful for them than losing the Euro-Charity Shield.
