CURRENT SQUAD

CURRENT STARS


Bobby Mann





Bobby Mann is the most experienced member of the Peterhead side and is also the captain. Just a few years ago he was playing in the SPL with Dundee and he is vital to The Blue Toon if they are to get somewhere this season.


Jamie Buchan





This 30 year old defender has also played in the SPL, with Dundee Utd and Aberdeen, he has much more experience in that division than Bobby Mann. He is a solid centre back but can play in the centre of midfield if needs be.


Donnie Munro





Donnie Munro is a fairly experienced midfielder who has quickly established himself in the first team since his arrival from Buckie Thistle.


Marino Keith





Marino Keith is a very well known player having been a regular for teams like Plymouth Argyle and Falkirk. The 32 year old is known for scoring goals no matter where he is but there is a sense of the fans not accepting him as he started his career at fierce rivals Fraserburgh.

Default The Phone Call...



I sat down in my living room, having just been sacked by Chester City. I was trying to decide how i would break the news to my wife, when the phone rang. I disgruntedly stood up and sloped in the direction of the noise.

"Hello, is this Daniel Worrall?" said a deep voiced Scottish man on the other end of the phone.
"Yep, or at least it is until my wife gets home." I replied

"Ermm.. Ok. It's Peterhead Football Club, we would like you to come up to Peterhead so we can discuss the possibility of you becoming our new manager."
I didn't reply.

"Mr.Worrall, are you still there?"

"So you want me, the man who just got Chester City relegated to manage your club?"

"Yep, we've sent someone to pick you up. He should be there in half an hour, be ready."

Before i had the opportunity to say anything, the man had hung up.


My wife, Becky, wandered in just as i stepped away from the phone.

"Daniel, i've heard the news. What are we gonna do?" she said.

"I've just spoken to someone from Peterhead, they're sending someone down here to pick us up."

"Why do they want you? You did crap at Chester, Peterhead arn't a bad side."

"Thanks for the vote of confidence."

This is really well laid out. I wish I knew how to centre the names and then pictures underneath. I also liked the flags in front of the players names on the squad list. Which was nice!!

Great start Wozza.

Let's hope this is going to be as good as the last Peterhead story I read.

Can't remember who wrote it though...
