Lovely. There's nothing quite like non-league football is there? I'm off to my third Lancaster game of the season tomorrow, and even though we have no chance of replicating Barnet by geting promotion, the game against gainsborough still promises to be a cracker.

Was it a good atmosphere down at Underhill?

Brilliant - a really emotional day. That club's been through a lot of smiley - bleep in the last four years, and you could tell it meant a lot to a lot of people for them to have got back in the league again. I just felt really lucky to have been part of the story and to have reported on it.

Paul Fairclough's a great manager and a really nice bloke, and the Chairman Tony Kleanthous has worked miracles.

My son was reffing a match a bit further down the hill and said that he could hear the celebrations throughout his match!

He also wants to know what the song about "going up to the football league song is" please.

I think it just goes "We're on our way, we're on our wway, to the Football League, we're on our way"?

Hope that helps smiley - ok

For me the best Barnet chants are when they sing 'Twist and Shout' or the Wheels Cha Cha Cha...

During the Ipswich match today they were singing the same song and it sounded as if there was more to it than that?

After the bit you put up there is another section, something like

something, something, "we don't know" something something, .......
"All I know is Barnet/Ipswich?Sunderland's on the way"
