On The Pull

On Saturday I managed to unpull my hamstring after I had pulled it during training on Thursday. I don't like pulling my hamstring because it means that it hurts you.

Because I had managed to unpull my hamstring, gaffer said that I was fit to start on the bench, which means substitute again. It is frustrating being a substitute because you don't get to play a full game. I just spent the time on the bench trying to get comfy and keep warm. I managed to keep warm by putting on a hat to cover my head, by wearing an all-in-one tracksuit (a onesy) and by putting gloves on. It also helped to keep me warm by being sunny and 28 degrees.

My onesy is boss because it zips right up the middle and down your legs so that you don't have to put two items of clothing on, which means I have more time to warm the bench. I like to do training and a warm ups when I'm a substitute. I do star jumps, squats, lunges and running very fast on the spot. I try and spot Roxy in the stand or some of my mates from back home. Sometimes Roxy doesn't come to the games because she's got a lot on, or we're playing in the north somewhere that doesn't have any boutiques and that.

We're doing good in the league and we're on spot for a place in Europe for next season. We've also got a Carling cup game against a small team from somewhere in the middle of the country. Gaffer says that all smaller teams are full of cloggers who are only out to ruin top flight players who play football in the top flight. He says that I'm starting from the beginning on Wednesday against the small team from somewhere in the middle of the country.
