[Assassin]

Finally this should shut up the Maureen and the Chav ****ers

Lubos Michel, who ruled Luis Garcia's effort had crossed the line when Liverpool knocked Chelsea out of the Champions League before winning it in 2005, will referee the game in Moscow. He has since said of the Jose Mourinho-dubbed 'ghost goal': "If my assistant referee had not signalled a goal, I would have given a penalty and sent off keeper Petr Cech."

[friedk]

exactly, he did Chelsea a huge favour by awarding that goal

[Van Halen]

I read somewhere that Gallas also admitted it was over the line.

It's not the first time the Ref has said this; pity the media in general haven't taken this on board when talking about that semi-final.

I read somewhere that Gallas also admitted it was over the line.

That wasn't just after he left to join Arsenal was it?

They couldn't beat us that day with eleven, so with ten NO CHANCE

Bitter whinging ****ers, I still want them to beat the scum though.

"If my assistant referee had not signalled a goal, I would have given a penalty and sent off keeper Petr Cech."

Well that's just wrong. He should have given the goal AND sent Cech off. Just cos we scored shouldn't have got him off the hook.

Don't matter what he says. It will always be referred to as a ghost goal and the facts ignored by the **** media

I can still see the moment. I was sat in the Lower Centenary about level with the goalline. I've got no idea if it was over the line or not, the whole thing happened so fast, but the reaction was amazing, everyone was leaping around.

Mourinho was right in one sense, the fans gave that goal. Our reaction convinced the officials it was over. We wanted it to be so it was. It doesn't matter if it wasn't.
