Default Up Through the Ranks

Legendary manager James McMahon started his managing career only a year ago with lower league team Eastbourne Boro. After 231 days as manager at Priory Lane, he resigned after a fall-out with the chairman. James requested a new contract but was repeatedly denied after getting Eastbourne Boro to the play-offs. When they finally offer him a new deal, he wanted a full-time contract but the chairman once again said no and offered him a part-time contract. James said,
"Well, I decided I was too good for Eastbourne and I started taking my interest elsewhere. I have declared my interest in a few jobs which could be available sooner rather than later! I am also not saying that I haven't applied for a job."

Shortly after he resigned from Eastbourne, Scottish manager James McMahon was appointed as Serbia manager. He sai,
"I am delighted to be here and I fell I can take Serbia to bigger and better things."
All Serbian football supporters were ecstatic with the appointment of one of the best managers in the world.

Then.. One week later, James was also appointed as Charlton Athletic manager. No-one knew exactly what was happening apart from the Serbian FA, Charlton Athletic F.C and James himself. Soon after, Charlton chairman Richard Murray, a Serbian FA representative and James McMahon appeared at a press conference to explain what was happening. James was to be manager of both Serbia and Charlton.

Soon after this, Charlton received a MASSIVE TAKE-OVER, but James kept his job. The new chairman came to a press conference explaining that Charlton Athletic now had £80 million transfer funds and a £6 million wage budget. Charlton Fans and Staff were delighted!

James McMahon sat off by rebuilding the whole squad, as he got an extra £80 million for the up and coming season. He signed a whole load of youngster including; Shaun Wright-Phillips, Ashley Young, Charles N'Zogbia and Leighton Baines! He has signed much more big name wonderkids!

Meanwhile, on the other side of his duty's, James has took Serbia to 2 wins and 1 draw out of 3 games and is currently 3 points behind top and 6 points ahead of 3, with a game in hand, in the European Championship Qualifying Round. He has also gave Serbians one of there greatest achievements, he has took them from 40th to 16th in the World Rankings, the highest they have ever been. He has also called up a few players that Serbian fans haven't seen in a while such as; Dejan Stankovic and Milan Stepanov. James has obviously been impressed by these two players because; He has released a comment to the media saying he is extremely delighted with their form and waisted no time on bringing Milan Stepanov to The Valley. Some reports say that Dejan Stankovic will be moving the Charlton on a bosman at the end of his contract with Inter. Dejan said,
"I would love to go to Charlton and work with James even more, he is a great manager. Before James took over Charlton, I had always thought of them as being relegation battlers, well, they probably were, but not anymore because they have they best manager they could ask for. I would love to go to Charlton when my contract with Inter is up, but I don't fell I could leave Internazional after a great few seasons with them. You never know, you could be seeing me in a Charlton top in 2010 when my contract is out, or I could sign within the next new weeks, no body knows!" James added,
"Well lets hope it is in the next couple of weeks then eh! I will respect whatever decision he makes."

No, I didn't cheat, the take-over actually happened. My save game couldn't load, so I am now working on getting Rangers relegated.

That was one big takeover if it reallydid happen m8. I can beleive the £80M to spend but I think editor may have been used for the wages.

Anyways KUTGW
