my most frustrating day ever?

I think this is it.

Fanta Light is a massive Norwich fan. We tour with NCFC pre season, and he wants to go to every game he can which, being a first year at Uni in Leeds, becomes be a bit of a stretch.

Sheffields Utd & Wed were simple enough, and Middlesbrough not too bad, but I was impressed with his efforts getting to Birmingham & Wrexham and we would've been at Leicster had granny's funeral not been the day before in Inverness.

When we drew Leeds from the hat it was like all his dreams coming true. His club playing in his adopted city - his sister is Leeds-based too and we all planned to go to the game.

But. A long planned operation to fix a breathing problem is scheduled for Southend hospital near our family home - and he has to report there at 7:30 tomorrow morning. The one kickoff time which doesn't work is the late Sunday one - it's just too risky when he needs to get a proper sleep.

So he'll be pulling out of Leeds station as the green & yellow army arrives. I'll meet him at Stevenage and we'll listen to the second half on Radio Dubbers as we drive home round the M25.

If any of you lot off of on here are at Elland Road, please give an extra specially loud OTBC for us, and we'll see you at the quarter- final.

NMTD!
