The optimistic pessimist
Despite all the tribal footballing rivalries and vitriol that often goes with it, the spirit of the footballing community never seizes to amaze.
Tomorrow night a football match will take place on the south coast.
The game itself probably won't be remembered beyond a week or two, but for a number of people the memories will last much longer.
Tom Lockyer returns to the scene of his cardiac arrest when Luton play their rearranged game against Bournemouth.
Lockyer will get to meet and thank the heroes that saved his life, which I am sure will be an emotional moment for all involved.
The thing though that really caught my attention was that the Bournemouth fans raised £2000 in order to put on 4 coaches to allow Luton fans to make the 240 mile round trip to the game.
It might not be a fortune but I think that's a brilliant gesture by the Bournemouth fans.
Every so often something happens where all the usual bitterness is pushed to one side and the heartwarming spirit of the true fans shine out.
