To have a Champions League final taken in injury time with a goal from their first shot of the game must have been heartbreaking for the Chelsea fans and players. Especially after John Terry's penalty miss in last years final and going on to lose the shootout.

wow blast from the past, talking about chelsea felt it deserved a thread! so what was your favourite Ken Monkou moment ?

 

He had this tendancy to hoof the ball clear, putting his foot right through it, directly into the little wheelchair area at The Dell, cracked me up.

Im 1 of the few who thought it was outrageous. We have had refs do the same to us and you understand why people lay one on them after robbing them of probably the last chance to get to the final

I dont understand why Hiddink didnt bring on more subs to kill time

My favourite Ken moment - I was sat in the Milton and Monkou made an absolute howler of a mistake, I think he basically laid on the perfect pass for the opposition striker to score. There was an old bloke sat next to me, with his flask and a blanket over his knees, quiet as a mouse for the entire game up to this point. But something in this Monkou f***-up ignited the fire within him, and he went absolutely mental, swearing, shouting, it was awesome seeing this frail old man totally going snooker loopy. Will never forget that!!!

saw Monkou play for Chelsea old boys last year, he was the best player on the park and could do a job for us now.. he is as fit as he was when he left.

(in the pre-Milliennium meaning of the word!)

 

I met him shortly after he left us for Huddersfield (about 2000 I guess) - my son was at leeds Uni and did his criciate ligament in. He had it reconstructed at a specialist clinic in Keighley - what d'ya know, Kenny was there at the same time for a different knee op. That effectively finished his career, apart from falling out with steve bruce.

 

For me he was a legend and a great guy - we could do with him right now.

.......and yet another reason for having the fourth official in front of the TV - the camera cannot lie! The game has really degenerated when the fans at home can see 6 replays of every incident on TV ..while the ref. has his own dubious eyesight to trust and frequently makes errors. Wait for it to happen again in the Final...Ferguson will throw a fit, get himself sent to the stands.. when it'll be the ref's fault anyway.

The TV watching fans will see one game, whilst the ref. will have his own Hollywood script for the game.

 

FIFA have it all wrong when they say that it reduces the responsibility of the ref. when what it does is diminish the respect that players and fans have for them. Chelsea had FIVE shouts for penalties in the match and a couple were certainly worth the effort . IMHO The red card was rather doubtful, especially as he wasn't the last man - and hardly touched the Chelsea player.

Iniesta's last minute winner. Never have i laughed so hard.

 

Whilst I dislike Chelski immensly and like you was having a chuckle at Barca scoring, I do feel sorry for them for being cheated out of the final. I'm sure that ref has been in charge of one of Saints matches, judging from his display.
