A Terrier's Tale.....

I had a conversation with a friend of my step-son a few weeks back and basically he said would I be going to the friendly that Town were having against Stoke - I told him he must be mistaken as there wasn't one, only wish there was because there are no friendlies at all near me this pre-season. He was adamant that we were playing Stoke at some point - and it turns out he was right all along, to a degree.........

Behind Closed Doors

So, here I am, working in Stoke On Trent, found out today that last night when I was hard at work not 2 miles away, my beloved Terriers were in action - charming - there is not one friendly that is near me this pre-season - Mansfield being the nearest and that is miles and miles away - and when they are local its behind closed blooming doors!!!!!


Second rant (well, sort of) - I haven't succumbed to temptation yet and purchased a new shirt - unusual for me, I own 1/2 a wardrobe full (according to Sam anyway) of replica kits past and present. These issues with the quality of the new ones worry me though, and by the time the new batch is available in September I will probably only get 8 months wear out of it (I sometimes wear my old shirts around the house, usually wear the most up to date one if I wear one when I am out and about, apart from my 2003 / 2004 on occasion (a particular favourite)).

So now I don't know what to do - is it worth forking out £40 quid, only for us to have a special centenary one next season? Don't know. If I did get one Sam would be furious if he knew it was for this season only!!

Wonder how the lads are getting on against Emley........
