    For a variety of reasons just got out of the habit of going. And posting much on here as a consequence. But went to the York City game, and enjoyed the Plymouth game on tv last week, and Conor's Radio Sheffield interview inspired me too.

    Have even convinced my girlfriend of 3 years to come along. It must be love. May also be single by 5pm. Will keep you posted.

    Welcome back. Hope you get the bug back and hope your girlfriend brings some luck with her!

    I know it’s only one result but it’s nice to read comments like this. Wouldn’t it be great if we put on a show in front of a decent crowd today?

    I was quite negative about the coming season but after a fantastic win on the opening day & us keeping all our best players up to now has meant that I’m excited to go today especially with it being a nice sunny day.

    This probably means Burton will nick it in injury time with a Moon header from a Lofthouse cross!

    Brilliant - hope you both enjoy it.

    Just make sure it's her round when you get to the ground :p

    And it's all your fault.

    Not a bad start that. I asked for her summary of the game:

    "Our number 6 gave me anxiety"

    "Me and you both love"

    Our, sounds like she's caught the bug. And she's a decent judge of a player.

    Did you tell her how good looking our manager is, or are we keeping that as our secret?
