NEXT HOME GAME: Play-off semi-final in May
NEXT AWAY GAME: Wycombe Wanderers – Saturday 3 May, 3pm
Dear County fans, Stopfordians, Lincoln supporters, and anyone else from The Football Family joining us today, a very warm welcome to your Sunday edition of The Scarf My Father Wore.
Well, it wasn’t to be. County beat Lincoln 3-2 yesterday after a sensational comeback at Edgeley Park, but our automatic promotion hopes came to an end a couple of hours later as Wrexham beat Charlton to clinch second place. Congratulations to the North Wales lot on completing their back-to-back-to-back. Our own back-to-back is still on the table, but we’ll have to do that through the play-offs next month.
Today’s edition is sponsored by Lynx Taxis. A big thank you to Ehsan.
Finally, I’m currently walking every street in Stockport to raise money for mental health charity Mentell. If you’d like to make a donation to help me reach my target, please click here.

Had this one sent to me yesterday. Not got any names, but a group of County fans from across the North West were at the Lincoln game celebrating a 60th birthday. Many happy returns, whoever you are!
