Inter Milan (N) | Champions League Final | Post Match Thread

I’m 65 in January; when I was 50 I hoped for a cup final. Never did I imagine what we’ve witnessed. I was in Istanbul, but I got very emotional at the fan park. You see my younger brother died in 2008 (the night we beat WHU in the FA cup 1-0j. I’ve missed him and yearned for him everyday since. The only success he ever witnessed was Gillingham and a couple of promotions. When the song ‘Stop crying your heart out’ was being played and everybody joined in, I lost my composure and had to be comforted by my niece, his daughter.

I have no great recollection of the match, just the goal and the torture of the last 15 minutes as Inter decided to play. Five mins to go, I thought of my brother and begged him to make City win, if he could! He came through, just as he did for us in 2011, 2012 and even last season v Aston Villa. At the final whistle I of course was delighted, but too emotional to savour the enormity of what our magnificent club had achieved. I cried for my brother and thanked him for looking out for us again. I know it sounds ridiculous, but that was my experience. 5 weeks,later, I now feel we have reached the pinnacle, our destiny and I feel complete now. Thanks Tony. X

There's been a lot of emotional posts on here following us winning the Champions league regarding those who are no longer with us. Yours really really did make me well up.

RIP Tony. Thanks for the treble.

Alas I suspect no,dvd or blu ray would have been nice,but all of that as a season souvenir have long gone along with a physical seasoncard , a membership to City TV and an expired seasoncard in your google pay app is the way forward apparantly.

The highpoint of the journey so far for me, but certainly not the conclusion unless I shuffle off this mortal coil before the season starts. Half price ST for FOCs make it hard to give up.

The beginning of another journey *, methinks.

*edit* while us foc's fade in the rain.
