This has been the day I have been waiting a long time for, and its funny but it is somewhat of an anti-climax. To finish above Chelsea I saw as being just as important to finsh above Arsenal, because surely that would mean being close to the top. So for the first time since 1996 we finish the season ahead of Chelsea.
How we found ourselves in this position I don't know as we are here every week it seems coimplaining about how poor our side is and how useless our manger is. I think it is a combinaton of a decline in both Chelsea and Arsenal together with an upturn in our own side.
In the days of Juande Ramos and Martin Jol, Damien Comolli received a lot of criticism. It is worth noting though that he was instrumental in bringing the likes of Bale, Modric and Assou-Ekotto to the club. Much of the clubs success belongs to that period when so many players were brought in to limited success at the time but have later come to fruition.
I hope the boys can finsih the job next Sunday and see off Fulham, although Martin Jol I am sure will do his best to stick it up Levy. Of course Chelsea may still get the last last laugh on Spurs by winning the Champions League, but just like thirty years ago against Aston Villa, I shall be supporting Bayern Munich.
So this Sunday brings the end to a frustrating, heartbreaking, pulsating season and I just can't wait for next August!
