On a day when two football (yes, football) teams you may have heard of (Chelsea and Manchester United) were dumped out of the FA Cup (a competition you may have heard about) by two smaller teams (Barnsley and Portsmouth) and England lost against Scotland in more Six Nations Rugby action it doesn’t seem like a day when I would be smiling at sports news but there is a puffing of chests and a smile from ear to freakin’ ear right now because… big breath…
Kirkham & Wesham FC - my home town football club - won - 1-0. In a real competition. The FA Vase. Meaning, they are now in the (pride pride pride) Semi-Final. SEMI-FREAKIN’-FINAL!
Now, join me in raising a glass to them.
And now I return to doing the website which is causing me a ‘more than a little’ pain in my arse.

Barnsley beating Chelsea is definitely worth a smile. Mind you, I’m sure Moobs would disagree.

yorksdevil - The Barnsley win was quite a shock… but a nice one - it was definitely a day for the underdogs!
