Very. The second half of the home game was the most tense I've ever felt at a game. Couldn't join in with the songs or anything as I was just too anxious. Didn't enjoy a minute of the second half...until we scored!
I’ve got an unexpected day off, so I’m going for a run then fight the temptation to go for a pint.
Although I have a sneaky feeling we are going to win 2-0 McNulty and Doyle
I'm not too bad. A loss could be potentially be disastrous but on the other hand, it's been the most enjoyable season for a long time. Tonight really is a lottery.
I woke up early this morning, and I've been busy singing sky blue songs this morning. Even dug out the CCFC tie for my half day at work. I'm quietly confident, although the tension is going to mount the further up the M1 i get! PUSB!!!
Yes! Loads! Could hardly sleep last night!
Last Saturday was the strangest feeling I've ever had driving to the Ricoh! I've had days where I've not wanted to go for shit football, been excited, been downbeat. But never experienced these feelings with a match before! And I hope next time round (be it this league or L1) we do it automatically cuz I couldn't do this every year! So much balancing on just 1 game.
I'm never normally nervous for our games (generally as there's never anything riding on them!) but I've been nervous all week, ever since Saturday's kickoff in fact. I'll be shitting a brick by 7pm.
I was OK last Saturday and said to my son that it will all be riding on the 2nd leg. Feeling like the good old days when we had to win our last game to stay in the Prem-ie nervous as hell!
No more Cov till August and league two football again or a trip to Wembley and possible promotion for the first time in an age all decided in one game happening this evening. If anybody isn’t nervous then they have nerves of steel.
When I say fine a magpie just landed in the garden so I ran out and tried to slide tackle it. Told it Tom Davies will get him and his mates if he comes back. I don't expect to see that beaky little prick again.
I am feeling it in the stomach and couldn't sleep last night, that isn't a surprise though in the past I've watched teams in the Play-Offs and felt edgy for them even though they mean nothing to me.
The first leg was horrible as i was watching it my County supporting mate so i had to pretend like everything was fine and not lose my shit when they scored. More relaxed today, will be watching it at home in comfort, kids should be in bed. If we lose, i will console myself with the thought that we would still have had to go and win at Wembley anyway. Still being the most enjoyable season for a long time whatever happens.
*** None of this will apply should we actually lose ***
Nervous, excited! We are a good side and don't deserve to lose...I want this win for MR and the boys more than anything, cos they've been very supportive of us and appreciated the support all season. And I want us to win as I think this group of lads would do well in League 1. But what does worry me is the standard of refereeing, which can make or break a game....I don't want a ref who disrupts the flow of a good game...we are about momentum. And of course the general shocking standard they serve up in this division...the main reason I can't wait to get out of it!
Feck me yes....I'm getting no work done whatsoever. I think the University can live with a day of complete non activity from me. Up at 5.30am and got Alexa to play
1. Eton boating song....grenadier guards band

4. Take me home John Denver
5. Don't worry by Bob
