Heartbreak At Wembley

 

Alas, this year the double was not to be. In the first FA Cup final at the new Wembley, Manchester United were beaten by a Chelsea goal from Didier Drogba deep into extra time, which handed Chelsea the cup double this year.

The match was a poor affair and not fitting for the first final back at its spiritual home, which lends itself to the argument that clubs are playing too many matches every season with not enough of a break.

The one bright spark was Wayne Rooney who ran his socks of for all 120 minutes.

There’s always next year lads!

Setting Up The Cup Final

 

All signs now point to the FA cup final! Not only are Manchester United now Premiership champiosn, they still have to play Chelsea at least once before the end of the season - in the FA Cup final. Whn the two teams met on Wednesday, the result was a boring 0-0 draw. Whilst this was not fun for the fans, it reveals absolutely nothing about the way that the final will go next week. The anticipation is building… come on you reds!

We Are The Champions!!!!

 

Erm, I believe that this belongs to us! After a magnificent season, we have finally brought the Premiership trophy back home to Old Trafford! Chelsea drew 1-1 with Arsenal on Sunday and finally conceded defeat! Manchester United are the champions yet again, and I bet Fergie was biting his nails! 

It has definitely been a season to remember with many high points. I believe that it has easily been one of our best, and long may it continue… but we are not done yet! Manchester United have to play Chelsea another twice before the season draws to a close, on Wednesday and for the FA Cup final! Woo hoo!
