As I sat in a dingy hallway... optimistic about my chances of a first job in professional football. I was sat next to Teddy Sheringham who had also applied for the job. (TEDDY) " hey, good luck on applying son and maybe the best man win eh?"
"Berry, your next" said Jeremy Peace the chairman.
"Why should we pick you to take west bromich that extra mile?"
"well sir, i believe being an outsider to the game i can offer a fresh input to the game and give the squad that extra push..." As the meeting went on I slowly got into the swing of things and slowly put a smile on the chairman's face to which he proclaimed "YOU, YOU'RE HIRED!!" I didn't know what to do so I kept calm, shook his hand and left with a smug look on my face as i passed and winked at Teddy Sheringham.
First Day; (to squad) "right you may not know me but this is how its going to work! you listen i coach we both win! Sound good?"
(JONAS OLSSON) "that sounds good boss! direct... like it!"
Meeting with the board; (board members)okay Matt, so we want you to keep us up this season and we will see where to go from there. How does that sound?
ME: "well to be honest i see us doing better than that therefore i will attempt to surpass your expectations but at this time will work towards that target.
BOARD: "that sounds good to me, okay so you will have £6 million to spend and £30k on wages..."
Squad report to follow...
