Blackpool

We’re at home to Blackpool tomorrow, following a run of six games without a loss.  I had half-made a plan to go, but of my two principal matchgoing buddies one is on holiday and the other would rather go to the pub, and if the weather stays like this I may join him.  I will take a small radio with me and listen to the results from there.

Last Saturday’s last-minute equaliser against Sheffield Wednesday was cause for celebration, even though it was a match we should have won.  But a draw in which you were losing for most of the game is a good result, just as a draw in which you were winning for most of it is a bad one.  And we’re still in with a play-off chance, for now.
