Yesterday I got the coach up t’north to watch Bath City play Fleetwood Town.
We left very early in the morning.
Everyone was very tired, due to the early start
We stopped on route at the motorway service station
The travelling fans made their presence known
While in the service station, I noticed Wayne Rooney’s poor baby had become locked inside a ‘claw machine’
We arrived very early, so decided to get off in Blackpool. The famous tower was not as good as I thought it would be
The amusements pier was a very dangerous place and full of con-artists trying to rip you off
The theme park looked good. Pity it was miles away.
I then spotted the 2p machines. Luckily for my wallet, I only had time to spend 40p in them
No doubt the most exciting moment of the day was when I saw Superman ontop of a building
We planned to get a tram to Fleetwood
But it never turned up. We had to make do with a bus, which was full of northern chavs
We eventually got to the ground, where the Man City/Chelsea game was being shown on the biggest TV in the world
Fleetwood’s ground is called Highbury. Their goalscorers yesterday were Vieira and Wright. It was just like watching Arsenal!
Whenever they scored, Captain Pugwash came on the TV
Although when Bath City scored from a penalty, the fat pirate did not appear
We lost the game, but played well. Ahead of us lay another four and a half hour trip home
At least now I can say that I have been to Blackpool… and I won’t be going back – it was shit.
No trackbacks yet.

- A Play Off Gamble?
While I was enjoying a weekend celebrating Leeds United's promotion, my other club, Bath City, also had a very important event on the Sunday.
Due to finishing the football season in a very respectable fourth place, City were invited to enter a play off competition alongside five other teams.
The prize for winning the play offs is... - 10 Years Ago This Weekend…
Leeds promoted on the Saturday. Bath City promoted on the Sunday.
Anyone who thinks it must have been fun, clearly isn't a football fan. One of the most stressful weekends of my life!
... - Make A Decision!
Now, children, this is what grownups call a cop-out... The National League Board met earlier today and has reviewed its prior decision to suspend the competition until at least 3rd April 2020.

About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
