No handshakes between QPR and Chelsea this weekend, what a surprise.

They should deduct QPR 10 points.

They should also deduct 10 from Bolton for being Bolton

Here's hoping same happens when Chelsea play them in the final. Games no way as bent now as it was then though!

Chelsea and QPR must be mad, if Terry and Ferdinand don't shake hands, it could cause a riot or something.

Just wondering, who lifted the CL for United in '99?

I was at that game, around Feb 2005? It was bloody freezing too!

It was my first game at the Camp Nou. We got tickets from a friend of mine who'd been a tour guide at the stadium.

Jogi Low to replace him? Or will they recruit from within again?

I'd be amazed if they gave it to Guardiola's assistant or the Barça Athletic manager. The two names mentioned in the pro-Barcelona paper, Sport yesterday were Bielsa and Valverde. I've no idea why they'd even bring up Valverde's name, let alone consider him. Bielsa has done a good job at Athletic, albeit on the back of the amazing work Caparros did. Money's no object for Barça so the compensation wouldn't be a problem.

I'm sure John Terry will be gracious enough to announce that, since he let his team down by being sent off, it would be inappropriate for him to lift the trophy and that honour should go to one of the players on the night.
