Europa cup final-Benfica v Chelsea.

Should be a good game, M Bolton might be jumping around tonight on his head, after his first debut as a Chelsea fan.

I hate Rafa Benitez but would be delighted for Michael if Chelsea won.

This is why I have made the switch to Chelsea, Scott. Silver ware, glory, good times. To be honest I have supported Chelsea for quite a while but I have kept it quiet.
Last season's Champions League win was one of my favourite moments as a football supporter.

Will you have your Chelsea shirt on, and if they win will you be celebrating ?

Tell us your pre match final routine ?

Great location for the final.

It's a dream of mine that Bolton play there one day.

If they do I'll probably miss it .

I was there two days ago. Smashed.

Fanny Coyle never played Rodrigo much, now he's playing in an Europa cup final, is this more proof that Coyle was clueless?

Incredible that isn't it? He looks a useful player, but couldn't get a game in a team that lost 21 of 24 league games. Crazy.

Nervous game this for me. I love Chelsea, but Benfica are my favourite foreign team. I wish neither had to lose.

If I could be any nationality, I would be Portuguese.

I know its soppy but at uni I was sort of seeing this Portuguese girl and she was the most amazing person I have ever known. I have never met anyone like her ever, she was just incredible. We stayed in touch for 10 years but we drifted apart when she met her partner She was from Lisbon and I have liked Portugal loads because of her.

Perhaps after 10 years of waiting for you to make your move she got pissed off? Can you not track her down and make contact again?

She has been with a guy for about 4 years now. She moved abroad after university so it wasn't like I could do a massive amount about it but I did make a mess of things and I regret not doing more. I still have her number and we do text each other 2 or 3 times a year but she has totally moved on with her life now.
I think a lot of people have had someone really special who was once in our life and we messed up or didn't do enough.
Can you relate to that?

I can dig it, MB.

Well taken goal by Torres!
0-1 chelsea

My new team are going to win the Europa league, woooooooooohoooooo.
Keegan, you have a similar experience?

1-1 (Cardozo penalty)

Somewhat. Not the "My new team are going to win the Europa league" bit - if I had stepped up and played my hand differently a long time ago, my life would have probably been a lot different today. Ah well...
