There I was this morning sat in front of a mind-numbing screen at work, contemplating the latest news on the injury front from Craven Cottage and working on the match preview.
Little did I know that from the moment I drew my own conclusions the reality would be so different.
There I was contemplating life without Danny Murphy, Bobby Zamora and Andrew Johnson when lo and behold I get home to find that Roy Hodgson has declared all three to be fit.
Also, it looks as if the squad will also be boosted by the return of Simon Davies after the Welshman proved his fitness in the hastily arranged reserve match I spoke about in my now out of date team news section of the preview.
I suppose I should have guessed it would be one of those days when I spotted a lone magpie sat on the front lawn as I set off for work this morning!
