Firstly my tennis match was cancelled, then due to circumstances beyond my control I left it too late to meet some overseas Bloggers and a few of the UK contingent at The Rose of Denmark and lastly the most god damn awful match I have seen at the Valley for yonks.
The Match
After a minute I could sense things were not right and it was going to be one of those days , Preston started brightly and after 30 minutes should have been 3-0 up instead of just 1-0. The first half was summed up very aptly when the tannoy announced there was to be 3 added minutes and a bloke behind me shouted "that's far too long". The second half was not an improvement and a great crowd of over 25,000 was stunned in to disbelieve at what was happening on the pitch . A lucky equaliser by McCarthy gave us some hope, but deservedly Preston got their second with the sort of goal that would grace any ground in the World.

Sorry you couldn't make it to the Bloggers meeting. Hope to meet you some other time.
Yep, hopefully next time CND, but at least we had the foresight to meet before the game.
