The Chairman's knees are knocking in excitement. Which is, it seems, what happens at this time of season every year. It's just before he starts foaming at the mouth, body-jolting to the floor and being carted away by the boys in white lab coats for a summer of incarcerated insanity.
But not before this: the last week.
It's the OFFL Cup Final and we have four teams within 16 points of each other at the top of the table. Can Livercoolio hang on just that little bit longer? Can Upmintster United complete an amazing end-of-season burst by lunging for the line in spectacular style.
Probably not but it's worth stringing this out for just one more paragraph.
In the cup we've witnessed one of the finalists make sweeping changes in a last ditch attempt to rescue their season. And while last year's champs, Radnorshire Tigers, languish somewhere in the shady shadows of the lower league by dropping two places, lifting two places is Lovedean Academicals. Indeed, manager Danny Atkins is this week's Manager of the Week by helping his Lovedean to 15 points.
