Morning there's a bar in Olhos de Agua called Oasis. The owner is Antonio and is very welcoming! A million tellies and a massive one outside! It's only 3 miles away! Lovely little spot! Hope that's helpful!
Off to work, shirt and scarf in the car ready for tonight.
Wonder how many times I'm asked "are you ok? You're quiet today"

Off for a round of golf with a Mackem I hooked up here in South Africa.... Then fire up the BBQ later and sit down and watch the match as my Star of David twitches like a trouts mouth..... This club really puts us through it.....wouldn't have it any other way

I'm a mental health first aider for the office and we have a meeting at 9...quite fitting if I break down in the middle of it.

Working from home is great for days like this mind. Got to pick the bairns up from school at 3:20 otherwise I’d have probably cracked a can open in the garden before then! Suppose 3:30 is early enough
Is she blonde?

Not sure how true it is, and according to Talksport it is. This pic is circulating around. Apparently We've done this to prevent Coventry from taking any of their long throw ins lol.

I'm in Gouves, Crete. Found a bar called Wembley that I'll be sat in tomorrow. It's a sign I tell ya. Hopefully no Jimmy Hill FC fans in.

Well here we go. Proper nervous. Havent said much post Friday, because I honestly dont know what we will do or what I think we should do.
Coventry suggesting they wont change shape, not 100% convinced on that. Do think they will change personnel, especially in the forward areas. I think theyll be better this game and be more threatening, we have to be ready.
With us, I'd imagine we will stay the same, shape and 11. The 2nd goal allows us to play the same game again, possibly a touch further up the pitch though. Got to get the balance right.
The lads need the fans tonight. Has to be intense and massively supportive. If we go a goal up, keep supporting as if it was 0-0, same if we go a goal down, same if we go two goals down. If RLB sets us up the same, and we're defensive, then we have to keep any frustration inside and back the lads to get it done the way they think's best.
Haway the lads. Lets get to Wembley.

Of course anything can happen, Lampard could change things, they could knock a worldie in from 35 yards, etc etc etc but ...
... in all seriousness, Coventry are no better than Bristol City imo.
They lost to Plymouth and Luton in matches just as important as this and only just made the playoffs.
Not saying we'll win but refuse to say we won't.
