The last few weeks at work for me have been horrendous and yesterday was probably the worst day of my working life. I left work with the weight of the world on my shoulders, and I arrived at the Etihad with my partner (I have said before I follow city because of her - she and her families are huge fans), not really feeling that confident and full of stress. About an hour before kick off that started to fade and turn to anticipation and excitement and then for 90 minutes we were entertained with probably the best football match I have ever witnessed... the only one I have been at in person which comes close was Blackburn v United in 2005, when Blackburn won 4-3. Every emotion was felt last night in an absolutey amazing encounter, joy, heartache, feeling sick in the pit of the stomach, pride, and disappointment. And you know what, I had 2-3 hours where I didn’t think about work or the stress that goes with it once. That is the power of football - however bad it’s going, it gives you a release, I needed last night and I am sure a lot of people are the same, it would just have been nice if we didn’t have that final sucker punch at the end. A comfortable win whilst it would have been incredible I don’t think would have Had the same effect!! The stress is straight back again today, but for just a short period of time it wasn’t there, and it was great absolutely gutted about the result, but Thanks City
