Middlesbrough BadgeOooh…I love Jeopardy. Name six things from Wales.

Seems that Captain Jack should have been called on Sunday, as clearly aliens had possessed the Boro players and stolen their…ahem…talent. That first goal against us, handball, definitely – however, that’s still no excuse for us not scoring at all!

Alves was (again) a disappointment – proven by the fact he was substituted at half time for Mido. Mido didn’t play that well, but I think we could have done with him in the first half in preference to Alves. Mind you, we could probably have done just as well with Dong-Gook.

At least we didn’t have to have Rio Ferdinand in goal. That was funny!

So now at least we can concentrate on the league – it’s still mathematically possible for Derby County to finish in the top 10, so we should have no bother. Unless we play a team from a lower division, of course.

Complete lack of passion and vision, a deserved final score : Middlesbrough 0 – 2 Cardiff City. Thankfully, Jimmy-Floyd didn’t score. That would have been the worst…

Have you ever needed someone so bad?

And of course other Def Leppard songs. It’s been a miserable rainy Bank Holiday Monday, and I’ve had a mood to match. I just got the feeling that I was alone in the world – not just with no-one being around, but literally -alone-. I once heard a man tell a story of how he died and came back to life (born again Christian, no less!) and that during his time of ‘deadness’, he was allowed to visit Hell. Hell, he said, was full of people, but completely empty. You could hear voices around you, but could see no-one, and could not communicate with anyone else. Hell is apparently defined Biblically as ‘separation from God’, and this is the ultimate separation – from abso-blooming-lutley everything.

Now, I know I haven’t been to Hell today – the mother-in-law’s, maybe, but not Hell – but I have had a pervading sense of dread, and of having no-one to communicate with. It seems my cries of anguish fall on deaf or ignorant ears!

Know this – in all your life, do whatever you do with a passion – you may not be here tomorrow to do it again. If you love somebody, tell them – one day it will be too late. You will always regret the things you didn’t do more than those you did – trust me.

To those I know, even those who have deaf ears, I love you. Please do not feel alone as I do.
