Watching the line whizzing left and right,nailbiting stuff

I've been sat here like a lemon shouting "no!!" when the dark blue bit started shooting across to the right and then "come on City!" when the white bit whizzed across to the left.

*Note to self - get out more!

The only consolation I could give myself when I became aware of how tragic my life had become watching the line of death, was that it was a huge step forward from the afternoons I spent watching our score on teletext and willing it to either a) update, b) Not update or c) show the letters "FT" after the score.

It went around the pages before updating, too, remember the tension?

Haha this is brilliant! I remember those days! I used to do everything I could to make City get an equaliser, a goal of some sort, fingers crossed, praying whilst waiting for the page to come back around. And then the loss confirmed in the dreaded FT bold.

GEORGE Evans says he would love to continue his football education at Crewe beyond his current loan deal.

The highly-rated midfielder, aged 18, is at Gresty Road from Manchester City until February, but is already eyeing up a longer stay under Steve Davis.

He has scored once in seven appearances so far and he is enjoying the steep learning curve in what is his first taste of senior football.

"It's a fantastic club and I've really enjoyed my time here," he said.

"I'd definitely like to stay longer. All the lads have been class with me.

"I've got to keep seeing how it goes. Hopefully I can keep playing and keep playing well. I just want to do well for the team.

"It's been massively beneficial. I've been here for six weeks and I think I've definitely improved as a player and I'm really grateful for the opportunity.

"It's been a great experience and I want to keep it going."

Manager Davis has been as impressed with Evans' attitude as he has with his ability since bringing him to the club in October.

He said: "George has done fine. He's still learning the game of course. He's still only 18, a young boy really, but he's a very mature lad and he's great to work with. He wants to do well, he's very determined and he doesn't like missing training or football. He's got a great attitude and all the credentials.

"There are a few things he needs to work at, but I think he's progressing. He's improving each game.

"He scored a fantastic goal against Vale. He needs to build on that and get more goals, but his general play is good. He's becoming more competitive and we're enjoying having him here."
