Oh no ! I think I'm actually optimistic about the new season again for the first time in years. As a Birmingham City fan, it's always hope that ends up being the real killer.
Special mention also to my local village club, Forest Green Rovers .... Plastered all over the world's media for the last few days as the world's leading vegan and eco-friendly football club. There's certainly never a dull moment at that club. Never mind all the odd stuff, I just think it's an extraordinary achievement for a club from little Nailsworth to get into the Football League structure. It's going to be an interesting experience for some of the visiting fans, approaching the ground via a single-track lane and arriving at a stadium next door to a field full of llamas. Bring it on!
