Liverpool FC V AC Milan - 3-3 (3-2 Pens)
Queens Vault Rangers V St Kellys Construction - 5-9

OH MY GOD I CANT HARDLY BELIEVE IT! The Reds on top of the European footballing elite, in my lifetime???? It was a dream which I believed would only become a reality when ear hair would be a relevant problem, or when finally I would begin to fall from riding the tide of technological advance, resorting to asking the next generation to set everyday appliances up for me. My fave Liverpool player, good old Vlad, got a cracking goal too - all the more sweet as he's off in the Summer back to Lens. The win has given me great joy but has also forced me to eat my words. Liverpool were the underdogs... FACT. I had shown endless amounts of pessimism about their European campaign.....FACT. I thought Liverpool were going out to Chelsea but in fact they did not.. FACT. Am I the worst fan in the world? Oh great and wonderful Shankly, willst thou forgive my lack of faith? I know many Scousers would surely not!

The Rangers suffered a blow against a worthy adversary this week. We looked terrible - no real shape, no real defence and the attack was not up to scratch. Overall, we could have played better but a good response of 5 goals ensured me that scoring may not be a problem in the future. We have proved we can score under pressure at least. Now we stand at 2 wins, 3 losses.

Tardis spotting is not a hobby of mine but when the Doctor comes local, you have to take an interest. The current Doctor Who series is currently being shown on BBC1 every Saturday and a few episodes have been filmed in my very own hood. Ive seen my church be attacked by Time-Vortex-Repairing-Dragon creatures, as well as witnessing my neighbouring street be a part of 1941 London during the Blitz. I started watching the show just to see Grangetown and Cardiff in general, but now I must admit Im enjoying the show much more than I first thought. I now must see each episode without fail! I never thought that Billie Piper would become part of my essential list... EVER!

Still not eating crap. I feel loads better overall. I think im starting to experience the benefits ever so slowly!!! I have pondered about morning runs, but can I really be arsed? Tell me, can I really be arsed???

Not much more I can say at the mo, so HOW for NOW. (remember that show? Truly awesome!)

Im somewhat suprised that you are aware of what a morning is. You realise thats its am time dont you? And not 1am before you go to bed. It would mean getting up before lunch time. About as likely to happen as the 'pool successfully defending the European Cup.

3 questions for you Joey...

1. Why didn't the 'Pool try and win the game in the 32 minutes of extra time?

2. How far exactly, can a goalkeeper be off his line before a spot kick is struck?

3. Was there any contact between the Milan defender and Steven Gerrard for Liverpool's third goal - 'the penalty'?

Liverpool won, of that there is no doubt - just watch the UK news!
But how they won it, now there's a debate my friend! ;-)

I love the Pool; I support them and think the world of them no matter how pessimistic I can get.

However I can accept that the Pool couldn't win during the 120 minutes as Milan were too strong. Cisse and Baros (god bless their talents) looked like lemons up front and were basically given long ball after long ball because the defence was the only way to go.

Dudek was off his line too, but Im surprised that the officals didn't pick up on that.

And for Gerrard's penalty.... IT WAS A PENALTY! It might have been the smallest of taps but in today's game a tap in the box is all you need for a penalty kick!
