Yes, Especially to manage my first Competitive Team. Yeovil are a Good Side, Do you reckon you could get them Promoted just like Gary Johnson did? I Think i am full of Quality, But the Pressure will be at me. There's been a fair few Rumour's about you trying to bring in Johhny Leoni to the Squad? Leoni is one of the player's i am looking at. Could you tell me if there has been any Enquiries or Offer for Leoni? I don't want to talk about that. Ok, Will you loan some player's from club's up the top of the Premiership? I will answer this one, Yes! What is you're target for this Season? To get in the Top Half of the league, Or maybe for Play-Off's. Well you're first Friendly is in 7 Days will there be any new addition's before than? Well i will certainly bring a few faces in, but i can't bet on it! Thank's for you're time chris, Good Luck with Yeovil and will speak to you soon? You to Mike! As i turn off the T.V i hear this slam of the Post coming through the Letter-Box, I quickly Skip through the Post until I see One from my Mum & Dad, It was a Congratulation's Card, It said as Follows: Dear Son Chris, We are both Happy to hear about you're new job, And we hope that it brings Great Success with it, Good luck with Yeovil son! Love Mum & Dad xx As i finish reading it, I notice a tear drop falling onto it.

Why not try Nemeth And Aridane!" He ask's "Sure Boss, will talk to Rafael as soon as possible" I reply "Well remember to not go over our wage budget" He Say's "I wont" As john pick's the paper's up he ask's "Now maybe you could get some player's to sign some new contract's" "I was thinking about this the other day, and i thought that maybe renewing them may make them more hyped for the new season" I reply "Sure do what you like!" John reply's "Thanks" As i leave the cáfe, The Hype rushes into me.

I like the story so far, and yes I was interested in the tear and then the grin, then The Hype. The Hype was U2's name initially, sorry unless you're a fan, but it amused me when you said The Hype rushes into me. A couple of gripes, and I'm really sorry to add this and please don't think I'm trying to sound clever cos there are plenty of chaps cleverer than me on here, but....I find conversation easier to read if you use different colours for the text or maybe italics. Another minor point, perhaps you need to look at your use of '. There are 's all in places they don't need to be, but these really are minor gripes, and I can't wait for the continuation.... | | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to thedeeb For This Useful Post: | | 18-08-08, 08:16 AM | #17 (permalink) | | Official FMF Writer Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Adliswil, Switzerland Posts: 2,188 Thanks: 290 Thanked 425 Times in 409 Posts Nominated 3 Times in 2 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Day 2-9:28am The dog's bark and that give's me the clue, The flap open's and closes... As i pick up the mail i hope that Liverpool have responded, I flick through the post as i see post from Liverpool, Auxerre and a free agent, I look at the Liverpool one first and it say's as follows Dear Mr Ashmore, Liverpool have accepted the loan offer Aridane, and will get back to you shortly to confirm this deal. Liverpool have rejected the loan offer for Nemeth, Liverpool feel the wage contribution offered was below an acceptable ammount. Thanks, Liverpool Football Club After that message i start to feel mixed feeling's as i realise that i still need a striker that would bag goal's for me, so i take a look at the message from Auxerre Dear Chris, I have accepted a new contract offer from Auxerre, I just feel at home here, but maybe one time Chris, i have signed a 2 Year Contract, so maybe in 2 year's you can approach me. From Alexandre Marie As the disappointment gets worst i read the last one to maybe make me happy To Chris Humberto has rejected the offer from Yeovil, He feels the basic wage offered is unacceptable, He feels that an Argument is probable, And would like to proceed with further negotiation's. Humberto's Agent I reach out for a piece of paper, And start a new message... Dear Humberto's Agent, Here is my new contract offer, You will be a key player, £2,000 per week, A 2 year contract, Appearance fee of £200, Goal bonus of £50, 25% promotion wage rise and 25% relegation wage drop. I hope i will be seeing you in Training next week. From Chris The pressure rises as i know i need to sign to win.
