Congrats to Crystal Palace, and their fans, who won the First Division playoff final against West Ham. Apart from the Champions League final, this is probably the biggest game in club football, the winners receiving a windfall of around £25m and £30m. A couple of interesting facts: West Ham scored the goal against Wigan on the last day of the season that meant Crystal Palace made it to the playoffs and last December, when Iain Dowie took over Palace, they were down at the bottom of the division, 19th I think. So a pretty amazing story.
Another amazing story, Hong Kong’s Kitchee football club beat AC Milan 2-1!
Aston Villa retained their HK football sevens title, beating Manchester United 2-0.
That’ll do.
— United States (definitely maybe)
I was certainly very happy at around 11.50 on Saturday night in Delaney’s. Iain Dowie has done an amazing job.
Bizarre, that’s where I watched it.
