I sat on the sofa in my two bedroom house flicking through the channels on my Sky + TV box trying to find something half interesting to watch. Its crazy how you can have so many channels and find nothing to watch at half six in the evening, I decided to leave it on BBC1 as South Today was on.
John Maggs Sacked!!
John Maggs Sacked!!
So John Maggs was sacked after 11 years in charge of my hometown club. He'd managed to get us into the second round of the FA Cup 07/08 season and got a replay against Swansea which we ended up losing 6-2 after going 2-1 up!! I remember getting the coach up there and watching, for just a minute I thought we might just get to the third round! But last season was massively disappointing finishing just 6 points above the drop zone in the Isthmian Premier League and he paid the harsh price in my opinion.
I sat there wondering who might take charge, South Today had already moved on to something to do with the Sussex Cricket side. Probably the Worthing manager or someone else nobody had heard of. I checked the time and realised I had just half an hour to get to training for my own football team, Horsham Crusaders. We play Saturday days against other tiny Sussex League teams. I was never that great at playing, not a bad target man up front. I was slowly playing less though, I'm not old by any means its just we had some good younger players coming through and I'd taken on a bit more of a coaching role at the club.
I ran upstairs to grab my shorts, shin pads and Chelsea T -Shirt with Torres on the back (I got it when he first signed for the club, kinda regreted it now). I kissed my girlfriend and said goodbye grabbing my boots on the way out and jumped into my Seat Ibiza and headed to training, the thoughts of the Horsham Managers position had already left my head as I sang along to Ed Sheeran - Give Me Love driving to training....
