Wow!!!!!! What a day, what a match, what a performance.
This might sound strange after the success we have had this year but forget about every game this season, forget the wins, losses and near misses that has gone before us for it is this game that should live in the memory.
There is no doubt we were the better team, we had the better players, better skills and better passing. That however was irrevelant, that merely kept us in the game. We won today on team spirit, and team spirit alone. Our commitment, our desire and our win at all costs mentality was an absolute credit to what we have built this year.
I woke up in the morning, much as I'm guessing Carly did, thinking what to say, how to get people up for the game, and how to get the best out of people. The truth is we didnt need to say anything, I have never been part of a team that wanted to win so badly and all I can say was it was a pleasure to be a part of.
Do not forget this game, it is likely you won't see a better one.
However what I want to end with saying is it is down to us to prove me wrong, and to surpass this with an even better performance next year. It will be even tougher than ever to regain the trophy but if we show the desire we did to get today, the sky is literally the limit.
