Yorkshire's Finest - York City
I drove through the gates. It was Gate D. The one I had been told to come down. I carried on down the narrow lane. Then, I stopped. A sudden chill of wind rushed down the back of my bright white shirt. I sighed, closed my eyes and thought to myself for a while. Thinking of every decision I would have to make, every move I would have to make, every word I would have to say... It was only until the car behind me beeped his horn that I carried on driving down the lane. I carried on further down, looking for a place to park my car. To my surprise, I saw an empty space, but no normal empty space, no, not at all, It appeared to have my name on a plaque just above it. Next to it was the same plaque, but with the name, Paul Ince upon it, then another followed, with Avram Grant on it. Then I remembered, they were the other two potential managers for the Job. I was nervous, I doubted I would ever get the job, Avram had managed the likes of Chelsea, West Ham, and Portsmouth, and Ince, he had experience with Notts County, Swindon, and Blackburn. They were both at least 20 years above my age, that's 20 more years experience for them, whilst I've only managed a local team back down in Thirsk. Things weren't looking up for me at all. No way. By this time I had already left the car, and entered the Stadium. I had a blurred image or where I was going, but either way I'd find it.

I found it. The Chairman's office.

Knock before entering
Is what the the door read. So, obviously, I knocked. I heard a "Come In" from the other side of the door. I entered. There stood the 4 figures of, Jason McGill, Avram Grant, Paul Ince, and current Assistant Manager, Darron Gee. McGill introduced me to the other three gentlemen, then to himself. Then we all went to sit down, and discuss what needed to be discussed. McGill and Gee sat on one side, facing the three of us; Avram, Paul, and myself. The meeting went on for about another three hours...
3 Hours Later...

I got it! I got the City job, I couldn't believe it. I suppose I deserve it after I was the only one willing to accept £575 p/w on a one year deal. Greedy shits. Personally I think managing York City is a reward in itself. But that's juts me. So, I left Bootham to return home, I had a lot, to do...
