No trains?
Dear Mr McGlynn,
I'd like to offer you my sincere apologies for my absence at the recent fixture with Queens Park. As you may, or may not be aware, I have recently had to deal with a particularly challenging, yet boring piece of coursework for uni. As a result, me and my friends arranged a night out, where I made the disgusting error of forgetting to check the fixture list before confirming my attendance. As a result of not wanting to let the team (no pun intended) down, I have no choice but to go and get utterly pished.
Apologies, and I hope to drink to a Raith victory when my brother texts me the score.
Yours apologetically,
Michael W
P.S If Raith lose and I'm found KO'd in a gutter, I'm holding you and Raith Rovers FC personally responsible.
