Money in the Bank

Is what I need. I've just got back from Kempston Rovers vs Brackley, where my deepest flaws as an assistant were not exposed. I made a total of 4 decisions, I counted, and generally it was an awful game on an awful pitch in awful weather. If a bit of drizzle constitutes as awful. One was a throw-in. One was a corner. I gave a "debatable" goal-kick according to the Brackley striker, (a.k.a Peter Crouch) and another throw-in. For the other 89 minutes I was crabbing up and down the line, (refereeing term for "sidestepping" because referees like to be different).

Despite me working very hard for 4 decisions, (1 debatable one remember!), I am not tired. I want to be tired! I need to go to bed, I've got an interview in the morning for that BP job and then I'm not going to sleep for the weekend coming! I'm getting ruined! Another £23 in the wallet however for the trip, which is equivalent to 23 vodka red bulls on the friday night. I struggle to be excited for the trip at the moment because I am slightly nervous about this interview.. If I don't get a job a 4 year old could do, I am officially screwed and I may aswell go and sell myself to the scientists.

An advert has just come up on Spotify advertising for ugly people for their beauty contest. Officially the strangest thing I've ever heard, except for any time CW opens his mouth.

Anyway, Manchester. I'm not expecting fireworks. The first couple of times I went the expectation was huge and I'm happy to say the reality lived up to the expectation! Hopefully this weekend will go beyond my expectation because now I'm sort of used to it! I'm not saying it will be rubbish, it will probably be amazing! However, I don't think it will be as good as the last couple of times. I may do something controversial.. make it interesting if things get boring! And then get stabbed outside the Manchester BBC centre by some Asian boot-shiner with a machete. I'd regret it though coming back on the train in a canvas bodybag. Waste of a first-class ticket aswell! It cost less!

Besides, I have an interview to get through first! I have thought about the answers I'm going to say as I've had enough interviews now to know what questions they ask. I'll be happy to find out if I got the job fairly swiftly so I can enjoy my weekend in style and not worry about spending all the money!

Right. I won't be updating until ... Monday night probably to give you a step by step account of Manchester events, if I'm not in a body bag. I'll be having fun. I hope you do!
