The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]

Obviously this doesn’t mean much to you but to people like me [and Russell, who also is a fan which shows he’s not as clever as we all thought] it’s very big news indeed.

Bottom of the league in Jan … we were tipped to go down by everyone … however after bringing Billy Davis as our manager [a move that wasn’t too popular given his previous dalliance with our nemesis, Derby County] things turned around and now we can look forward to another season of sphincter tightening medicority.

Now whilst I’d like this post to be on the irrationality of being a ‘fan’, what I want to say is that on the Evening Post website [Nottingham’s local newspaper], there’s a comment that sums up quite nicely the all encompassing power of emotions.

Well done Billy – I would sleep with you for what you’ve done. I literally love you.

I couldn’t put it better myself, however what I’m trying to say are 3 things …

1/ At the beginning of events, when all things can be classed as ‘neutral’, we have the ability to project and believe in miracles, even if all the signs say otherwise.

3/ I am a sad bastard who will [i] still be buying a season ticket for next year and [ii] heading to China where they’re doing their pre-season tour.

Hey, remember Mr Davies loves them too … 🙂
