Here we go again, getting all anxy and nervous waiting for tomorrow's Sunderland game where, this Saturday at least, we have home advantage.
I've already set out my lucky Spurs cap that a good friend brought me over last year which I used for the first time when watching the C.C final, along with my 2006/7 season Spurs away shirt (blessed by a Maya witch doctor) trusty jeans and sandals replete with sail fish on the straps (couldn't find any with cockerels)
At 7:15 am our time (2:15 pm yours) after enjoying a hearty English breakfast of fried eggs, tomatoes, bacon and sausages, washed down with 2 large mugs of tea each item of clothing will lovingly be put on in its correct sequence before I sit down in front of Fox Sports Latin America to watch THE game.
The wife, who'll be around somewhere (hopefully not making much noise) and my youngest daughter, still in the land of slumber, have strict instructions that for the next 2 hours I will be totally dead to whatever problems that just might arise in their lives, although during the 15 minute 1/2 time break I am always open to suggestions, and one of them will be to have ready, at 10am, my victorious or consolation beer, according to the result.
Should we win then it'll be a good weekend, should we draw I'll be pissed off and should we lose, then I'll probably fire one or two of my employees.
So Mr Ramos, my good mood, my family's and even a few of my employees families all depend on how you set your stall out tomorrow and only a win is acceptable. Nothing more, nothing less.
QUE VIVA LOS SPURS
