Speaking of the minute's silence, in the words of the Guardian's Football Weekly podcast's Fernando Duarte: "Shame on you! You pricks!".

He's got a way with words.

I'm not sure Barry Glendenning even likes football for all his championing of Sunderland and Roy Keane.

But I love James Richardson: "The Italian Cup final is a two-legged thing. Unlike Heather Mills". Phwoar, eh? Phwoar!

I'm personally hoping for lots of red cards and career-ending injuries.

I'm not a nice person.

It's the newer Chelski fans who jumped on board when Abramovitch did who get on my thru'penny bits. Glory hunters.

They all win by being cheap and drawing cards. No matter, though; in a few weeks' time FCB will show Chelsea how a proper football team plays the game. I don't expect the final will be a terribly close match at all.
