So then, the postmortem’s begin........
Firstly well done to this club for actually getting to a CL final, if someone had told me that 5, 10, 20, years ago I’d have burst out laughing.
However it has come and gone with little or no fuss in the end, the team that played shite got beat by the team that played even more shite, as happens in finals, and unfortunately them lot won!!
Should we have even been in the final? Souness didn’t think so and a lot would agree, hard to argue, but we were in it so fuck him and anyone who thinks other wise too, you get what you deserve as they say!!
So disappointed for many reasons, as would be expected after a any defeat, but what makes it more disappointing is the manor in which we decided to go about our business tonight, very little intensity, it’s as if we somehow thought there was a second leg, sorry lads one game, one chance......
And I hate to say it but that one chance will never ever come your way again, well at least 99% of you, one or two might sign for a serial winner at some point in the future, but as for me and most fans my age that chance has definitely gone, and I will probably never witness a CL final again
It would be so easy to start ripping into players, and even Poch, but I’m going to leave that to the clowns over at AFTV, no player tonight really deserves being called out to be fair, and Poch done what he thought was right, we would all love the gift of hindsight, right?
We go again in August, first full season at the New digs, and a manager who will obviously stay now, if I’m reading his quotes correctly.....
But investment needs to be made to the squad and weak links need replacing or it will be more highs, followed by the most horrendous lows, like tonight!!
Safe trips home one and all......COYS!!
