Chapter 1
It was a normal sunny day in Plymouth birds out, kids getting ready for school unfortunatly I had to get my work clothes on, I've always hated going to work especially getting up, I work as a carpetner it's a dull job but at end of the day it's a job.
A massive part in my life is football, doubt I'd live without it although my team may not be good I'll stay loyal no matter what anyway off to work I go

WOW! what a tiring day wonder if there is any transfer news going on as I get onto the forum messageboard I look at the amount of members are online 800?!! Somethings must've happend I go into the discussion board to see whats happend and to my own suprise the first thread I see is "Peter Reid walks out" WHAT??!!! this isn't good I look at some of the posts mainly it's suggesting he walked because of the transfer budget but surely he would've been aware of that before he came here! I go to bed thinking who will replace Reid, I've always wanted to manage my beloved club all my life will I get the job if I applied? Naaa don't be silly the board will never consider me in a million years but I hate my job I have at the moment is it worth it? My head tells me I shouldn't do it but my heart says I should I've only managed a under 12 team before which was S**t but managing Argyle would mean everything I've decided Im gonna apply for the managerial post!
(this is my first story so please go gentle if it's not very good)

Chapter 2
I walk into the entrance at Plymouth Argyle my nerves were getting to me a little but I thought to myself "I can do this." If I didn't achieve this then it's back to carpetentry and that would be awful anyway, I walked upto the desk and said to the women "My names Stephen Clough and I'm here to apply for the managerial post" she led me to my seat as I waited to get called in by the chairman Sir Roy Gardner.....10 miunets has passed still no announcement but to my own suprise I saw a familiar old face walking out the chairmans office I thought to myself can it be? It was Ian Holloway how the **** can he get the job?! After what he did and the fact he's now in the premier league with Blackpool well I'll have to see eventually I get called into the office I took a seat opposite Roy Gardner I told him my past and my job and what I want to achieve for this club he looked quite pleased with what I had been telling him.He told me to wait outside.
As I got back out the office I took a seat after 20 miunets I got called back in my nerves were really getting to me now I've never felt so anxious in my life as there was a moment of silence but then Roy Gardner said these words "Congratulations you are the new manager of Plymouth Argyle FC" I couldn't beleive it I was so happy I've finally got the chance to do what I've always wanted be the manager of my beloved club!
