twelve games. twleve games was all Sam Draisey had to turn his newly adopted club away from relegation. With little money, and no intereted players, Draisey had to make do with what he had got, and what he had got was a side doomed for relegation.

The twelve games soon evaporated into history as it came down to the final day, with Draisey's side having to win away from home against the side placed above them in order to stay afloat. lose or draw, and all predictions would be realised. And yet, through all of this, Draisey was quietly confident. he had close to a full strength side, and the mood in the dressing room was good.

But it was not to be. Sam's side went 1-0 down very quickly, and after resorting to a brave 4-2-4 tactic, they conceded again on the break. Draisey's side were denied a penalty shout. it tirned out to be the correct decision, but maybe had it have been his day, it may have swung the other way.

in the 92nd minute, Draisey's side scored a consolation, and even manged to draw level with the last kick of the game. 2-2 a fine battling result to bow out to, but it was a bow out no the less.

He began to scout the European market for a new job, which resulted in a falling out with his current employers. After a swift resignation, our hero packed his bags and made for home. maybe the coffee shop would still have him.

it was in fact the first tie Sam had been home in nearly four years. As he touched down in Birmingham he smelled the sickly sweet air of the place and sighed. he remembered in an instant the reason that he had left.

through all his trials and tribulations, the football season was still going in the rest of europe. he went to a few games of his beloved Villa, and sat by the phone. then, three weeks later, the call came.

Prefabricate '05 modelu is a relegation candidate out of Romania, and they wanted him. He scouted the website before jetting out to sign the forms. Sam Draisey was back in management. With no money at all to spend and the club massively in debt, Draisey would have to use all of his skill and knowledge to save this club from relegation. But a silver lining came in the crop of youngsters at the club ready to break through and prove themselves to their new manager. Talented and naive, Draisey hoped that he could use their ability to his advantage and steer his new club to success.

A New Hope.
