    Remember the Sky One documentary on Liverpool winning the Champions League called One Night in May?

    Well they're doing a follow up featuring Everton – Two Night's in August.

    And while we're at it.........


    The year is 2012 and 6 year old bluenose Duncan is talking to his bluenose Dad.

    SON "Dad, my mates in school told me that Liverpool won the European
    Cup for the 5th time in 2005 - are they right dad?

    DAD "Yes son, it's true, but they were dead lucky son, all the way through the tournament"

    SON "Why dad?"

    DAD "Well in the group stages ..."

    SON "What dad, did they have a team from Azerbaijan, Israel, and Malta in their group?"

    DAD "Well no, they had Monaco, Deportivo la Coruna, and Olympiakos"

    SON "Well they still sound like 3 easy teams to me dad"

    DAD "Actually Monaco reached the final the year before, Olympiakos had
    won their league 7 times out of the previous 8 seasons, and Deportivo
    finished above the galacticos of Real Madrid in their league".

    SON "Jeez dad, that sounds like quite a difficult group then".

    DAD "Yeah I suppose your right son, but they were still lucky - it took
    a mi**** shot by Gerrard against Olympiakos to get through".

    SON "Oh is that the goal were your hero Andy Gray goes berserk shouting
    "You beauty, you beauty, what a hit son, what a hit!!!!"

    DAD "Yes son it is"

    SON "oh ok. Well what happened in the last 16 dad, who did they draw?"

    DAD "Bayer Leverkusen"

    SON "Bayer who?"

    DAD "Exactly son, but they had beaten Real Madrid 3-0 at home, and won their group that included Dinamo Kiev and Roma too."

    SON "Bloody hell dad, they sound good".

    DAD "Yes, I suppose you're right son"

    SON "So did they win on away goals or something"

    DAD "Errrrr, no, they won both legs 3-1 each"

    SON "Oh - well, who next then dad"

    DAD "Juventus"

    SON "How the f#ck did they get past them Dad?"

    DAD "Well they did - they won 2-1 at home, and cruised to a 0-0 away
    draw without Juve having hardly any chances".

    SON "Were Juve sh#t at that time - had all their decent players gone or
    something?"

    DAD "Well actually they still had players like Del Piero, Nedved,
    Ibrahimovic, Thuram, and Buffon in the side. And they won Serie A few weeks later."

    SON "wow, they beat the Italian champions elect - which p*ss easy team did they get in the semi then?"

    DAD "Chelsea"

    SON "Chelsea - for f#cks sake - what a p!ss easy draw - they've won nothing, Everton have won more than them".

    DAD "Well that season they won the Premiership and League Cup but the
    Red sh*te didn't let them score in 186 minutes of football"

    SON "Jesus Christ - so Liverpool beat the English Champions elect too"

    DAD "Yes son, they bloody well did".

    SON "So after all that I suppose all the good teams had been knocked
    out"

    DAD "Not quite son, AC Milan awaited them in the final"

    SON "No way - aren't they the 2nd most successful team in the competition's history".

    DAD "Yes son they are"

    SON "So were Liverpool lucky because Milan had all their good players
    out with injuries"

    DAD "No - they had Shevchenko, Crespo, Maldini, Nesta, Cafu, Kaka, Stam, Dida, Gattuso, Pirlo, and Seedorf".

    SON "Your 'avin a laff"

    DAD "It gets worse son, Milan were cruising, 3-0 up at half-time".

    SON "What happened, did they have 3 men sent off in the second half - how did Liverpool get back into the game?"

    DAD "No, Milan had no men sent off, the Red sh*te scored 3 goals in 6
    minutes"

    SON "Against the best defence in Europe"

    DAD "Yes!!!, against the best defence in Europe"

    SON "So what happened next - extra time?"

    DAD "Yes son, and Dudek made the luckiest save ever to stop a Shevchenko shot from a yard"

    SON "Why was it lucky dad - did it hit him on the arse, nose, shoulder
    or something"

    DAD "No son, his hand"

    SON "Well aren't goalies meant to save shots with their
    hands"

    DAD "Yeah, but that's besides the point"

    SON "Then what"

    DAD "Penalties!"

    SON "English teams are crap at penalties"

    DAD "Not this f#ckin time they weren't - they only missed one. And that's how Liverpool became the luckiest team to win the European Cup".

    SON "But I bet when they brought the cup home there was hardly anyone
    to watch as all Liverpool fans live anywhere but Liverpool you say. How many was there, 5,,000 or so?"

    DAD "1 million people lined the streets".

    SON "So let's get this straight dad - Liverpool had 3 good teams in
    their group, they then knocked out a team who had beaten Real Madrid
    3-0, they then knocked out the future Serie A champions, then knocked
    out the future Premiership champions, before coming back from 3-0 down
    to beat the 2nd most successful club in Europe. And then the whole
    population of Liverpool came out to welcome them home!!!!

    DAD "That about sums it up son"

    SON "Dad?"

    DAD "Yes son"

    SON "Can I have a Liverpool shirt for my birthday next week, and can
    you stop calling me Duncan - I'm Stevie from now on"

    Every once in a while, someone on the humour board will say something along the lines of "You stole 3 minutes of my life you bastard, and I want them back" - I used to snigger at these poor fools and their misfortune.

    Now I'm one of them :(
