I would've said Arsenal beating both Utd and Chelsea. But what's the good when they lost to the likes of Stoke and Fulham.

Firstly i am as much against drugs cheats as anybody, banned for life, all of them, but
he never tested positive for drugs, despite being tested to death.
And according to the experts, the amount of drugs needed to run that fast would kill a horse.
So let's give him the benefit of the doubt.
For me its John Terry slipping in moscow . Incredible series of runs by Usain Bolt in the olympics , but i'm somewhat sceptical as to whether he is drug free . This guy ran a personal best of 10.03 100 metres in january of this yr . 8 months later and the guy has broken the world record 3 times , culminating in a 9.69 . Only time will tell i suppose when advancements in testing may detect todays drug cheats .
Rafael Nadal winning Wimbledon in a classic final.
Bohs winning the League and FAI Cup double.
The Olympic medals won by our boxers.

A toss up between Munster winning the Heineken Cup(what a great bunch of lads always give me a good reason to get tanked up with liquor)but equally the news that athlete Marion Jones had to give back 5 medals 3gold 2 bronze she won in Sydney olympics after steroid abuse after she spent 6months in prison this girl was a basketball player yet 1st time she turned to athletics swept everything before her over 100 & 200 metres- a shocking end.
as was i and also at leicester and northampton finals.
would have gone to match against all blacks but kieree threaten to rob my jeep :D:D

The final race of the F1 was the most exciting for years & I was chuffed for Lewis Hamilton to win the overall championship. I had gone to Interlagos the year before when he was robbed of it due to a technical fault.
My fav moment of 2008 was watching Man United beat Chelsea in the Champions League final in Moscow. On the way back to Moscow airport we were all singing ' there's only one John Terry' lmao
& Man U could also win the Club World Cup comp in Japan too.... you gotta love em ;-)
Just for you Leah

Jamaica does not have mandatory drug testing..Drug tests there are scheduled and separated by months..Many believe he was taking drugs in between the tests ad then flush them out of his system before the Olympics hence not proving positive.....Joe Lewis said it is very strange how a guy can go from running 10.3 one year to being the WR holder the next year..many jamaican woman sprinters tested positve after the games as well
