I am on the way to Jamie Carragher's retirement do up in Liverpool as I write this column but the Champions League final is in the forefront of my mind.
It has to be Yeovil. I thought they would be in the lower reaches of League One this term but unbelievably they secured a spot in the Championship on Sunday by beating Brentford at Wembley.
They say never go back but Gary Johnson (pictured) has proved that to be wrong. He got the Glovers promoted from the Conference and from League Two and has now lifted them into the second tier upon his return.
It is a wonderful achievement for town of just 40,000 people and a club whose average home gate is a tad over 4,000 and whose most expensive player - Irish striker Paddy Madden - cost only £15,000.
Gary, his coaching staff and his players deserve all the plaudits.
