The eagerly anticipated FA cup third round draw in footballing fraternity had arrived on the TV in earnest. As a seasoned veteran to the game I prayed to the footballing gods for a David and Goliath draw with one of the top teams. Nestled into the sofa with something cold and fizzy, I was oblivious to my partner fussing over the ironing in the corner. "Tom I need to tell you something." Ball number 56 was the ball and after what felt like an eternity it was deftly plucked out of the hat. "Lincoln City will play..." "Tom, I'm Pregnant!" "OK dear; fair enough... You what?!" I did a double take. The over exaggerated ones that you see on sit coms. Those 3 words were about to shape our destiny on an emotional scale never before experienced over the next 40 weeks.
