Taking us to the seasons final ⚽

Are you watching the women Bob?

Absolutely! Stoppage time...

I can't watch it but following via live blogs, sounds like Arsenal are playing great.

Barca dominating the ball, but Arsenal holding out...

Yes!!!!!

Well done!!!!

I like the Arsenal women team, quite a few supporters on the women football thread.

I am would never support Arsenal men’s team but more than happy to see the dominant hold of Barcelona broken and the underdog side victorious so well done Arsenal!

OMG. I can't believe it.

Well done to Arsenal Women!

And yes they better have a parade I agree with Karen Carney!

Aberdeen won the Scottish Cup

Something about hubris and nemesis...

Pleased Aberdeen won - I have an Aberdeen number one fan t shirt when tried to get DH a number one Liverpool fan shirt and they accidentally sent me an Aberdeen one but it was so soft I like wearing it and therefore have a soft spot for them

Most of the comments on HYS last week were saying how there was no way that an English team could beat Barca.

Hopefully they are all having humble pie for their tea tonight.

To quote Erling Haaland- 'stay humble'.

You wait ages for a London team to win a trophy and then seven come along almost all at once. Will be eight tomorrow and if AFC Wimbledon win on Monday, then it will be nine.

This is all tense - irritated by FPL as debated subbing Pickford on for Martinez and decided against it

That is brutal for Aston Villa I mean great for Newcastle but to have a goal disallowed
formsomehting thah didn’t happen but because the whistle was blown…

A shame, as Isak would have been more likely to be available.

Such drama at Old Trafford

I think Villa could do very well in Europa League

Gutted to have missed out on Europe but just too inconsistent throughout the season. However if you had offered me 8th at the beginning of the season with out new young unproven manager I would have been delighted.

Haha no flipflops for us, Jordan Pickford is dynamite 🎶

He’s going nowhere… 😏

If I could have written a NUFC ‘way’ to get into Champions League it would have been that. Fuck me we like to do it the hard way at times. Thankfully it’s not about one game but the 37 preceding it and Villa’s resurgence just came a whiff too late. Just shows how important goal difference is.

We build and go again. See ya next season folks!!
