Saturday...Saturday...Saturday is Football Day!
At the same time, I'll have all off my eyes on Elland Road where my beloved Leeds United are hosting woeful Rotherham. I'm hoping that we fill out boots with goals against the bottom feeders. At the end of the day, Forest take on Newcastle.
Join me for a natter if you have a chance.

The team news out of what I still like to call Maine Road:
Manchester City: Ederson, Akanji, Dias, Stones, Ake, Rodri, Foden, Nunes, Alvarez, Doku, Haaland.
Subs: Walker, Grealish, De Bruyne, Ortega, Bernardo Silva, Gvardiol, Bobb, Wright, Lewis.
Everton: Pickford, Godfrey, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Young, Garner, Gueye, McNeil, Harrison, Calvert-Lewin.
Subs: Patterson, Keane, Onana, Virginia, Beto, Coleman, Chermiti, Hunt, Dobbin.
Referee: John Brooks (Leicestershire).
At the same time, Ipswich are hosting WBA and the Baggies are pipping them 0-1 right now. The Tractor Boys have really fallen off from second to fourth and in danger of allowing WBA to pip them for fourth.
Everton really under the cosh but hanging on for now.
Citeh are still at 0-0 at half-time. Very flat from them; Liverpool and Arsenal will be delighted.
I'm sure that the Gooner is for once backing Sean Dyche's shithouse tactics. Only half an hour now for Everton to hang on for a draw that would lift them out off the dropzone.
On come KDB to rescue the day for Citeh.
The Striking Viking has again broken Everton hearts with a 70th minute volley.
1-0 Citeh.
Haaland has gone on to notch a second goal - that's 16 in the league now - and Citeh has run out 2-0 winners at the Etihad.
Wahay! Leeds have jumped out to a 1-0 lead over Rotherham thanks to an early strike from Lord Bamford.
It sounds as if we're in complete control of this match.
-0 up at half-time. I'm reasonably satisfied but we could easily have been three or four-nil up if it weren't for our usual profligacy. The better news is that Huddersfield are 0-2 up at Southampton. If these scores hold, we'll be into that second automatic promotion spot. Happy days!
Oh - LB rifles one onto the bar. The rebound comes to Gnonto who lashes it wildly over.
Yes! Cry Summerville makes it 2-0 - his 14th goal of the season! We're nearly home and hosed now.
Southampton have gotten one back - it's 1-2 there.
3-0! Cry is felled in the box and then scores the pen with a cheeky Panenka. Wahay!
Huddersfield are now 2-3 up!
