Great stuff.
I actually thought as long as we played decent even akin to last season the break would do us good.
What a night. The lost decade is over. A better one has begun.

I put in the Post Match that you could have had a picture of the final Scoreboard with "Enough Said" underneath it and it would have summed it. I didn't envy you having to write that but you have worked your magic.

Must admit to feeling a little emotional myself towards the end. A lot of the highs we have had over the past decade or so, have been largely been against a backdrop of uncertainty or concern. Tonight, though, felt different and feels like the start of something.

I think a really big point you've made here, which we can forget, is that this result will be headlines around the world. I'm watching American cable news and it's appeared there already, we're fucking massive.
