Today

[valefan16]

The day of destiny has arrived... 15,000 Valiants head into battle behind 11 heroes. Lets do this Vale!

[Vale of course]

It is here. I am pumped. I am supremely confident.

 

Yates with a sublime cross on to popey's head in the 92nd minute.

 

WE ARE GOIN' UP!

[soothsayer]

IF you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

 

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

 

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,

if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

[Bert Llewellyn]

My significant other half has just told me to stop singing vale songs booger off. Early start then - and to think Depeche Mode USED to be one of her favourite bands!

[valetillidye]

had depeche mode blaring in car on my way to the oatcake shop

 

I'm also quite partial to a bit of this

In there on the big screen, every night I've seen

The way all things could be

For me, for me, for me, for me

The news broke after midnight,

That we pulled the temples down without a sound

But the generals they were hiding out

The ministers, Well! They'd all gone to ground

Wealth re-distribution, became the new solution

So I got a paper bag, but you got the one with all the holes

[valeparklife]

I've barely slept.

 

Bag of nerves.

[Rampant Zebra]

Levellers, Now that's what I call music. Brilliant band live!

[tonyh]

Nervous as hell.

[Woodward]

Keep Calm and win promotion.
