Great work Neil, just got to read the entire Thread now and it is well written and gives a good outlook on the real life on a manager.
May use some of your ideas for my own story(first one since fm10). Also glad to see you didnt sell Luuk, he will be a top player.
Keep up the good work mate

Your results are looking amazing with Ajax so far, any possibility I can download your ability to make tactics into my brain? I'm hopeless

Since our last game against De Treffers (which funnily enough directly translates into The Songs using Afrikaans) we have a substantial break until our next competitive match away at Excelsior on the 21/01/2012. The town looks incredible, all the lights and decorations are in full flight, it radiates an aura of happiness and goodwill which is even that much sweeter from our good start to the season...
During this time of year no matter where I am or who I am with I feel sad, the feeling only amplifies itself at the moment, a glass of scotch or five should help... Sitting in my apartment, listening to the christmas carrols floating in on waves of happiness, I hear a sharp knock on my front door...
I put down my glass and make my way to the door, wondering to myself who this could possibly be.. I open the door and standing in front of me is Candyce with a bottle of our favourite wine, Glen Carlou: Tortoise Hill Red..
I could not believe it, I was lost for words, what a lovely present for christmas, I had honestly thought I was going to be spending it alone...
Later on it turns out that Steven had gotten in touch with her and decided to fly her up for a few days as a surprise, she has known about it for weeks...
All I could think about was my conversation with Ralph a few weeks ago, I had not actually bought a ring or even sourced it yet, she had no idea either..
I had given everyone just over a week off to spend with their friends and families but told them not to eat or drink too much otherwise they were in for it when they returned to training...

I arrive at the arena early in the morning, a little hungover after my last night with Candyce as she was on her way back to South Africa already, to welcome Nikao to the club as he flew in from Brazil. The stadium was as quite as a library in a convent, dead quite, lifeless...
I pop into Stevens office to see if he is there to thank him for my present, he was not in, I had remembered him saying something about going to Australia for Christmas a couple of months ago, he must have grand children down under...

As I walk out the front door of the apartment block, a gust of ice cold wind engulfs me, biting at the tip of my ears, its been snowing all night... This is going to be interesting...
