PRE SEASON

Liam Brocklesby claims that these fixtures, all would have been won by a considerable amount of goals, if his team was at what he would say finished...until the January transfer window.

FINAL SCORE: Southampton 2 : 1 WestBrom.

NEXT GAME

Arsenal kick off the game and leave the pitch at half time with a thunderous 3 goal lead. However, the Saints get a bollocking off of Brocklesby in the changing room. They come out for the second half fired up and ready to go. The advanced striker Ricky Lambert pulls one back for the saints in the 77th minute, and midfielder Steven Davies strikes a lucky second goal for the away team.

Meeting with Nicola Cortese.



Brocklesby : Hello, Nicola. How are you?

Cortese : Ciao Liam

Brocklesby : I was wondering if you could pump a few million pounds into the budget.

Cortese : Why Liam, you dont need any money. The squad is fine as it is.

Brocklesby : No, I want to assure you of a top half finish this year, and we are lacking ability in goal, we need a substitute goalkeeper.

Cortese : You can ask as much as you like Liam, this is not going to happen, now you have put me in a bad mood, i would like you to leave my office please.

Brocklesby : Are you really going to be this guy?! Ughh, ill just have to scrounge a keeper from the youth team, i guess that will do.

Cortese : Yes it will have to do! Because you arent having any money until i see the squad performing well, consistently, every game. Ask me again before the January transfer window and i will be very angry.

Brocklesby : Ok then, sorry boss.

Cortese : Go then get out! Uscire dalla mia vista. Vaffanculo!!

(Brocklesby leaves the office)
(then re-enters)

Brocklesby : Boss, are you ok? Boss, are you crying? Oh lord, Ill see you tomorrow boss.

Due to recent month long injury of Luke shaw, Liam Brocklesby decided with the 200k left in the bank that he was going to buy maybe a first choice left back who also plays left midfield beside Luke Shaw.

Welcome : Maksim Bardachow.



(PRESS CONFERENCE)

Brocklesby: I only had 200k in the bank left, however, Nicola Cortese arranged a meeting, the day he found out Luke Shaw was injured and offered me a sum of money in return for a favour. The favour I did for him for the club is confidential but I can at least say the stadium will be upgraded majorly in the next 2 years.

NEXT 4 GAMES.

GETTIN MY SON!



PRESS CONFERENCE.

Brocklesby: I am very, very pleased with Wellington, he has shown and proven to me that he deserves to be first choice every game! I can surely see him being the next Kaka or even bigger, Watch out Southapmton, Barcalona will be after him soon:L.
