Oh Well, its been fun

Chelsea were knocked out of the Champions League last night by Liverpool.

I didn't see any of the game (courtesy of a rather croupy, hacky cough that kept Sam awake), and fell asleep listening to extra time on the radio, but much as I hate giving the bin dippers any more fodder for their "Kings of Europe" delusions, I'm not too upset at being knocked out.

This is largely a damage limitation exercise; I've asked myself which would be worse, being knocked out in the semis by Liverpool or being beaten in the Final by ManU, bearing in mind that this would follow losing the Premiership title to them *and* being beaten in the FA Cup final by them, all in the space of ten days.

And with that in mind, I can put last night's defeat aside and look forward to Liverpool being given a mighty whomping by either Man U or AC Milan in the Final. Well, I can hope.
