		<description>Well the game was ok.

The commentators said it summed up the best bits of the Premier League. Err, what? One half one team plays bad defensive football, the other half the other team does. Yeah, unbelievable.

I was watching it wishing it had been Liverpool Arsenal&#039;s Quarter Final second leg instead. Our game was infinitely better, more entertaining, with a much higher tempo, better skills, better goals, more offensive and just as much drama with the late Theo goal and Liverpool&#039;s comeback.

THAT was an advert for English football, not just a pretty standard game where both sides played nothing more than &#039;well&#039; for a half each at a slow tempo.</description>

		<description>Read in the buildup that Ashley was a doubt for the final &amp; I was desperate for it to be true, couldn&#039;t face the idea of him winning the CL. But so hapy now that he played and won nowt.</description>
