First I give you a lovely juxtapostion of shops in downtown Belper which was taken last Saturday - it reminded me of the Eddie Izzard "Guns'n'Banjos" sketch ...
Next - downtown Mossley...this building was originally a bank before it became a doctor's surgery - in fact (I kid you not) it was once "raided" by an imbecile as in "Give Us All Your Money" - "Sorry sir - this is a doctor's surgery" - "Oh - goodbye then". However due to falling letters, it may now start to attract the local "hungry people" ....
This weekend - I'll be honest (honest Carlf !) - the plan was to go down to Stafford early doors, go and see my Mum and Dad - maybe even "little sis" before going down the Marston Road to see the "Battle of the Giants" viz Stafford Rangers v Droylsden for the Conference National "Spoon of Wood" Trophy. HOWEVER - evil nasty commercial Sultana Sports have pulled off a trick oft used by their bigger brother (Sky) and changed ALL the kick-offs to 1715 - and as the (wedding anniversary) weekend goes - it causes issues. So with great regret, that plan has been knocked on the head.
Stalybridge are at home to Redditch - but, short of Harrogate winning 17-1 or something daft like that, they're in the play-offs anyway. So yes it's the "old faithful", the "old reliable" - Mossley v Wakefield - let's see if the Lilywhites can finish the season with three wins on the trot ... it'll certainly make up for the previous (fill in as applicable).
...and then - we start looking at play-offs - be they Stalybridge or Curzon Ashton or even some bugger else - Mrs Smiffy calls it "Football Season Prolonging Mode" - and don't we all try our best .... !!!
