21 April 2003

It's the daddy of all foregone conclusions as Town drop to Division Two after losing 1-0 at home to Walsall (although results elsewhere render the outcome at Blundell Park irrelevant). A bright first-half performance ultimately counts for nothing as the leathery types grab a scrappy, bundled goal almost straight from the restart, the handball in the build-up being one of approximately 817 committed by the visitors in total. Despite the sterling efforts of Michael Keane, the Mariners are overrun in midfield; and a switch to 4-3-3, as always, makes matters worse. Ominously, Paul Groves discards his shirt and makes straight for the tunnel at the final whistle.

Cheer up though, everyone - Wednesday are down as well!

And, er, yeah, all right - it was Bolder who had that ace volley saved at Hillsborough the other day, not Boulding. But I have to say, I was very, very, drunk.

I don't know what else to say now, really. Not that that usually stops me, but hey. Keep the faith.
