And now, the end is near...

Well, that's almost it then. Just two games left with English interest before the end of the domestic season.

And what a season it has been. Thrills, spills, joy and heartache... And some great moments along the way as well.

Who will forget plucky Hull winning at Arsenal and mixing it with the big boys before their freefall down the table? What about Newcastle's turmoil?

Further down the leagues, there are great tales as well - Burnley getting into the Premier League by winning their 61st game of the season, Peterborough going straight through League One, Leeds blowing it again, and then Luton's season of turmoil seeing them win the Johnstone's Paint Trophy before dropping out of the league.

But that's it now... After the Champions League final and the FA Cup final - as well as a couple of England games that really ought to be a stroll - that's it until August.

These summers without an international tournament don't half drag, but I suppose you can at least look ahead to the fixtures in the middle of June, as well as the transfer merry-go-round, which promises to be particularly intriguing this year...

Oh sod it, who am I kidding... BRING ON AUGUST!!!
