Winding down before it all kicks off

The Champions league final has a lot to live up to after last years magnificent come back by Liverpool and 2 cracking cup finals on Saturday. Liverpool are getting a reputation as the comeback Kings and its all down to the main man Stevie G. Yes, Liverpool were lucky to win and yes, West Ham were the best team overall but you cannot deny Mr. Gerard and his mates their glorious victory and declare it anything other than a magnificent game. 3 dodgy goals from West Ham, 3 belters from Liverpool, a shocking 90 mins from Reina but redeems himself in the extra time and penalties, the players looking like walking wounded as they hobbled up to collect their prize. Its games like that that make me want to run outside and kick a football and its games like that that mean I'll still be enjoying myself when I'm up to my knees in mud, playing god knows where in the West of Scotland and (on current form) losing by a handful of goals. Roll on the world cup.
