While the rest of the footballing world is waiting for the UEFA Champions league semi finals, I am thinking of three games with a little more relevance to my little football life.
It is, as Sir Alex Ferguson describes this part of the season, squeaky bum time. The football team is four points ahead of our nearest rivals inthe old shufflers league with three games remaining.
The third placed team played their game in hand over the weekend and won it 1-0.
We've now all played 19 games. We have 49 points and the next two have 45.
More importantly we meet the team in third in two weeks. And worst part of that importantly is that quite a few of the side's best players are going to be away.
Essentially if we draw the last three games we're up as we have a better goal difference than them in third. However the ramifications of it all are enough to give you a squeaky bum.
So it is best to go out and win the right to go up. No ifs, no squeaky buts.
