SUPER SPURS 2 CHELSKI 1
What a weekend i traveled over to London with Pete Brien(maggie mays) and
his hurling son Rory along with my own two boys David and Mark we had a ball
.staying in baker street in the Sherlock Holmes Plaza about two hundred
yards from Madame Tussands a very nice central hotel. John Dalton and Tommy
Walshe and Ruairi Keogh were also in London for the match, so we were well
represented!. On the saturday morning we went up the white hart lane to the
mega store there and bought anything that moved ,came back and watched the
rugby (well done Geordian Murphy all is forgiven) and went later that night
for my first and last Morocean meal .we were all tired and exited about the
next day so we went to bed early that night ,up early Sunday morning and i
went to Baker street tube to met my Dublin cousins who had travveled over
that morning only to be greeted by about three hundred Chelski fans givin it
large to anyboby in a white shirt ,was i afraid ? no i am a Martins man
(well really yes ) they were singing there hearts out ,back too the hotel
for a few scoops we were joined there by daithi o connor and his son michael,
so we all went in mass to Wembley ,it only took eleven minutes on the train.
when we arrived we were all in awe of this brilliant stadium
i am sorry Sheamus Howlin but its the best i have ever seen ,we got to our
seats about an hour before the kick off to savior the atmosphere 84,000 fans
made up mostly of Tottenham fans who outnumbered the Cheski by sixty forty .
When the teams came out the noise was deafening , Spurs started very
brightly and Robbie Keane nearly scored in the first minute .the game evened
out and after 37 minutes Chelse went ahead with a goal from a very dubious
free kick ,1-0 at half time ,The second half started with Chelski on top (oh
yea and in the first half i got a text from a Chelsea fan i wont tell you
what the doctors name is your secrtes safe with me Kiaran) but some good
work by Tom Huddlestone earned us a penalty ,i thought the linesman was
pointing for a corner as i was at the other end ,and it was put away with
ease by our number nine Dimitar Berbatov (hand off united you cant afford
him) 1-1 this boring Chelsea team arnt so unbeatable i thought to myself and
with the Spurs fans in full voice Spurs grew in confidence and should have
won in normal time when Didier Zokora blazed wide after being one on one
with Cech. Extra time ,i thought at least they hadnt beaten us in normal
time ,but after what had seemed like about five minutes of play a Jenas free
kick was headed or nosed in by Jonathan Woodgate with his first wever Spurs
goal he mightened ever score such an important goal again ,the next twenty
minutes were nail biting and after three minutes of added time in the second
period of extra time the referee finally blew the final whistle.Glory glory
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR blasted out over the tannoy happy days we stayed on for
about half an hour as the presentations were made .we had a great time sang
our hearts out what great fun . on our way back to the airport some poor guy
decided to throw himself under a tube somswhere in london which meant we
missed our flights home ,while feeling sorry for the guy ,we booked into a
hotel and celebrated in a posh hotel . a great week end well done SPURS and
ha to all you doubters
