Pt.1

It was the year 1998. Playing for my local Junior club as an Under 18 player.
We were on good form. Although I wasn't a fist team regular, I liked to help out the manager with his tactics, and benifit from the position I played. My owb tactic, was play as a high defender. So I will have more creative freedom, occasionally going on runs to the oppersitions half.
It worked, but no one took a notice of how perfect it actually worked.

When the club had already won the top divisison, they had a competition in store, who ever wins the league gets tickets to the World Cup in France.

We had to win, but unfortunatley, our striker broke his foot, and we had some under 17's on the bench, so they told me to play up front. We had 5 mins of the game left. The score, 1-1, it would have to go to penalties. The goalie did a really long kick out and the defender missjudged the header, it lobed him, and I ran round the defender.
Nobody was there, just me and the Keeper. I was very nervous and just shot. As I did this I slipped and fell as I kicked the ball. This put spin on it and fooled the keeper. The ball went in and I had won us the cup, and our squad tickets to the World Cup.


Pt. 2


Unfortunally the plane had a crash, and 15 out of 20 people working and playing for our team died. All the players died except me. I went to the world cup anyway but gave the tickets away.

Ever since then I have lived in France.

France was Okay, but I couldn't speak the language, and was having a tough time.

I moved on to Romainia, my ex-girlfriend used to live there, so she helped me learn the language, I am confident, but sometimes am unsure of what i'm saying.

Pt.5

I'm awake. What where am I? A hospital? 'Excuse me.' I say as I tug at a doctors shirt. 'What day is it'? 'It's the third of March.' Oh, how can it be true it was just December 12th. What year is it?'
'2009.' OMG I think to myself, what has happened, if I haven't been in a coma, I must be in the future. Yes, it's my destiny, no one knows me and i'm in England, A fresh start. What to do with my life? I know i'll get into football!

Pt.6

I have looked on the F.A. website for coaching jobs, and Applied for the Assistant manager of Nuneaton Griff. They said they would love to hire me but I must first pass a coaching coarse.

Two weeks later I returned, in much fitter shape and with a wide range of football knowlage.
I helped the team to coming 12, after previously being 17th.

The manager took all the Credit and moved on to manage AFC Liverpool.

But the chairman was happy with how I helped the club and he appointed me as manager!

Now my personal aim, is defeating the Pirates, and getting our team promoted!
