The thought of Villa, Brum, Forrest and Derby has got me picking up my note book and calculator, putting on my slippers I wear to take the bins out and going to have a peer through the window of my imaginary hen house I have down the bottom of the garden.

Im really trying hard not to by reminding myself of all the previous time’s we’ve been let down.....but after Sunday the chickens are calling.....come count my lovely hatching eggs.

Yep let’s put a hold on any celebratory crap until we have it in our hands and we can’t lose it - the fb group is full of it and I can just imagine the crowing if for any reason we didn’t make it - we have 11 games to go - game by game

Atm we are in a great position but that can change in a couple of games lets put our celebrations on a back burner for the time being and enjoy our recent success however long it may take

That's going to look awfully silly when we win the Premiership.

25% of the season left. We’re one up with 20-odd minutes to go. No City fan should be thinking the game is won.

You're strange.

I have an imaginary whorehouse at the bottom of my garden.

You should never count your chickens but after 50 odd years of not realistically topping a league table and five points ahead of third with a game in hand on some i can’t blame anyone having a little count.

The prospect of some London away days would mean being able to take day trips to see us play.

Whilst I fully engaged with the "and now you're gonna believe us" vibe at rochdale & was proudly telling everyman & his mate in a liverpool boozer sunday afternoon how fucking ace we are.....
...I still get cold sweats when I recall that 2002 run-in with John Eustace & his merry band of grade-A bottlers.....1 point taken from the last 21....

....so I'm still ultra cautious on a sober tuesday.....but when saturday comes....

Yes, and as your neighbour I've complained and had you arrested every time you go down and use it. I've told you - as it's imaginary there are no walls or women. All we see is a middle aged man standing at the bottom of his garden pleasuring himself.

12 games or so ago, Ipswich were 3pts ahead of us with a game in hand.

It doesn’t take much for our fortunes to take a turn for the worse.

That said, we’re in a very strong position at the minute.

No Johnny, that's my house. And thanks to you I am now getting divorced, although admittedly, the money did come in useful at Christmas.

Always been a “don’t count your Chickens until they hatch” type of guy.
Along with “there but for the grace of God go I” are two of the staple
Phrases of wisdom handed down to me by my dear old Dad.
The “don’t count your Chickens” phrase could well have been thought
Up by a Coventry fan.......but it does feel different this time, the team
Are playing with an air of dogged confidence and appear to be able to
Win (not lose) any type of game put before them.
For MR his staff and players to have bought us this far in the time it’s
Taken ‘with all the back room noise is simply incredible.
