    On how to get through this week without becoming a gibbering wreck?

    Its on my mind constantly and it's doing my nut in. Trouble is, I daren't stop thinking about it just in case my lack of focus has an inexplicable effect on the teams performance.

    Coming on here doesn't help either.

    There's nothing you can do except tolerate it. It's not long, only 110 hours and 20 minutes until kick off.

    I knew it would. If you need any more tips please refer to Barnsley66's suggestion.

    I'm trying in vain to put it to the back of my mind. I remember too well that day in April 2002 when we were at home to Norwich City in the last match of the season.

    We went down meekly with a 0-3 defeat, in a gutless performance, and were relegated.

    Somehow I feel there's no chance of us laying down to die this time.

    My plan is to burn off as much nervous energy as possible by cycling to as many obscure places beginning with "d" as possible. So far I've been to Darnall, and Deepcar. I need a bit more of a challenge now though.

    Denby Dale? It's on the way there and you can kill 2 Ds with one pedal.

    If the alcohol option fails then try the following-

    at work tomorrow put a pair of underpants on your head and a pencil up each nostril.If anyone asks you a question reply with the following "wibble" or "cluck cluck jibber jibber my old man's a mushroom".Guaranteed to get you sectioned,put on heavy medication and blank out at least a month out of your life.

    That's another 30 minutes gone by, wasn't that bad was it?

    In 109 hours and 50 minutes they will be doing the pre-match huddle.

    I only clicked on it and filled in a few boxes.

    I still think Barnsley66's idea is the way forward. I'm experimenting with it as I type.....

    Have you tried mental illness? I can assure you that once you've got it you'll find the result of a football match is about as distressing as a light breeze.

    Not sure how you'd go about contracting it though.

    Try Denver or Detroit....

    ... though if they are too far, you could always try Doduth!
