International break ahead

Well if the previous week was bad, this past week has been good. Very good. Somehow the wins away from home always seem that much sweeter. And last minute winners against Southampton and Bristol City were sweeter still. This could be a good season to go to every game, home and away. Obviously we hope that we make it a perfect week with a win against Cardiff, but we've lost the last two home games, so take nothing for granted.

But this Saturday is the last game before the international break. So I'm taking an international break. We'll probably meet the Basildon boys in the Horse and Groom - it's becoming a regular haunt - before working out how many of us are going up to Preston in a couple of weeks. So we need to get tickets before the game, but afterwards I'm off home to pack for a trip to Canada. The loved one is back home studying in Canada so the international break provides just enough time to get to Toronto and back. Flights have been booked for Sunday - after Cardiff - and return on the Saturday morning of the Preston game. Sky kindly agreed to move the game back a few hours to allow me to drop my bag off at home and get up to Preston. If there are no delays it should work OK, but right now I'm not sure how I'm getting up to Preston. Something else to discuss on Saturday.

In the meantime let's just hope we can keep the run going with three points against Cardiff.

Up The Addicks!
