Myself, Crespo, Shouty and The Boy are off to watch the Mighty Bantams lock horns with the Iron of Scunthorpe on Saturday. City are desperate for points in their struggle to avoid relegation, and the lads are desperate for something to cheer about. Between England's recent lacklustre performances and the Bantams disastrous slide into the relegation zone, belief in our team is not high. But hope springs eternal, and at odds of 6-1, I am having a tenner on City. Members to fall by the wayside on this trip are Jamon, who is having to drive up to Carlisle that day, Lobon, who is suffering from back pain, Queso, who is grand fromaging around Jamaica, and last but not least Funky, who has been trapped beneath all the bills he has not paid to his Internet provider. Don't worry missing brethren, we will pick up the beer slack. This will be my last bender as well for a week or two, as the nefarious Elster has put her foot down about the resulting hangovers from my recent binges. Fear not though fellow squad members, as I am already formulating a plan for an April bender outing. The dogfight at the base of the league one table comes to a head on the 28th of April, as City and Chesterfield square off in a proverbial six pointer. The boys will need all the support that can be mustered, and once we have consigned the Spireites to League Two we can celebrate with a few sherberts on our journey home.
