I remember being in this position last season. An excel spreadsheet open on my laptop just staring at the fixtures and thinking "****... this is going to be painful". I remember this part of the season feeling like the longest stint ever, counting down the weeks. - Watching Chelsea somehow progress and progress through the CL. Getting Wummed 24/7 by my mates.
Then there was that final day madness when Fulop caused total controversy. (still convinced that in a few years we'll find out there was something dodgy behind that incident. 1 clanger, ok, fair enough, Goalkeepers make them. 3 horrific pieces of goalkeeping in 1 game? Sorry, but it doesn't wash with me).
But we still had hope. There was no chance of Chelsea winning the CL against Bayern was there? I mean, they'd been very flukey beating Barca and had an insane amount of luck on their side....
Then we waited and counted down the days to the CL final. The "FC Bayern Hotspur" thread and profile avatars to match.
Every spurs fan behind Bayern, praying that they'll do the job that Barca couldn't seem to manage..
120 mins then penalties.
Then Drogba.
The WUM texts came flooding in within seconds.
But I remained gracious in what felt like defeat, despite the fact we'd not played.
I remember replying with "congratulations on winning the CL". - that was it. It nearly killed me writing that to a WUM chav fan.
Sorry if I've made you all feel sick, but whatever happens this season in our run in, it cannot be any worse than last year. They say Karma is a bitch... so who knows eh?
