Its match day and in a room at Ramside Hall Mr Bent will wake looking forward to seeing old friends at the SoL, his home until last year.
My day started with my walk in the park with Osca but Osca did not come home, he will enjoy a day or pampering with her indoors, she has her own doors, and he will return tomorrow. That leaves me free to hopefully enjoy a good game, wonderful performance and winning outcome. I can call for my usual Indian takeaway on my way home then settle down to watch it all again on football first.
I know there is an alternative version buts its a version best kept quiet and one Iâm confident will not happen.
We will, hopefully, be sitting between 8th and 10th tonight and a mini run will have started and apart from a less than easy away game to come it should be a run that brightens up our season.
So, how important is today, vital. Vital to us fans who are trying hard to keep the faith but badly need some proof our faith is not misguided.
Vital to the players, they are now our starting 11 and only they can make sure they remain our starting 11.
Vital to Short, his pockets are deep and how far he digs in come January will be decided by how confidant he is, confidence and results tend to go hand in hand.
Above all vital to Bruce who can move a long way up the happy pole with 3 points today, he has the starting 11 and he has the strong bench, its how he uses them that will count.
Enjoy your day boys and girls, sorry, not you Darren, I hope every single minute of your home coming is full of pain,, failure and regret. Not that Iâm bitter mind.
