After being made redundant by McDonald's, Ralph Johnson has decided to hang up his spatula's and venture into management employment

Good luck

Do I get fries with this story? Good luck

Ralph Johnson finds a letter in his postbox "Probably the rent man" he said to himself. He opened it. It read

Luverdense

Dear Mr. Johnson,

I have offered you a 1 year contract on £825 per week to take the vacant manger role at Luverdense

All the best of luck

Helmute Augusto Lawisch.

"YES!" He shouted. He quickly searched the internet to find out where this Luverdense place was. Brasil. Reality struck him, where was he going to get the money for a flight to Brasil?
He rang his mum and dad "Mum! I've got a manager's job at Luverdense in Brasil!"
"That's great!" she replied
"Can I borrow some money for the flight?"
"Errr"
"Mum I'm on £825 a week, I'm sure I'll be able to pay you back..."
"Oh go on then! Good luck!"
"Thanks mum!"

"Mister Johnson, wait outside my office in ten minutes" said the chairman

10 minutes later...

"Mister Johnson, please, come in"
"Yes sir?"
"You have only had one game to play with your own signings and your contract runs out in 3 months and I'm willing to give you a chance to have a whole season with your own signings which is why I have given you 1 year and £100 more on your salary, are you willing to sign Mister Johnson"
"Absolutely!" Ralph shouted
"Just sign here then sir"
"My pleasure"
"I'll tell the squad now"
Ralph screamed a silent 'YES!' when he went out of the room

Luverdense under Ralph Johnson:

Aguia de Maraba 1-1 Luverdense (League)
Luverdense 3-1 Nova Ubirata (Friendly)

It will be interesting to see if you stick at this. It could be a great journey and even better because nobody has done this challenge for a long time. Good luck.

Mato Grosso State overview

Quite a poor showing in this season's Mato Grosso State competition but it didn't mean much to us, of course it would of been nice to of won something in it but hopefully we can get promoted up to the Second division this season

First ten games in the Third Division

And also the board are very confident in Ralph and his reputation has gone up to National.



Luverdense have two massive matches in the Brazilian Cup against Sao Paulo as they continue their Bradford City style cup run

"Mr. Johnson, Come in please" said Helmute Augusto Lawisch
Ralph entered the chairman's office.
"The performances in the league and cup have been absolutely exceptional, which is why I want you here for another year if we do keep you I can see Luverdense going all the way to the top. I mean beating Sao Paulo over two legs and winning the Brazilian Cup shows Brazil, if not the world Luverdense mean business. Now I am speaking for the fans and myself here, if you sign another year at Luverdense everyone will be delighted and it would cause a threat to other clubs knowing that you are still here and I'm sure other clubs will be looking at you and thinking "He's a good manager" and will make offers for you, obviously if another club comes in with an offer to good to turn down, take it by all means. But I want you here for many more seasons, do you?"
"Show me the paper and I'll sign" laughed Ralph
"Excellent!"
When Ralph came to the club in September 2012, Luverdense were riddled with debt, now, with the Cup run income totalling to £1,362,810 and the Copa Libertadores to look forward to, the future of Luverdense is bright.

Individual month updates could be good, with info on each game, rather than just updates every few months or so.

The idea is totally down to you, but making more regular updates would be sure to bring in more views and comments, as alot more people want to get more involved in the story - I know I do.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll try and do it a monthly thing

"The State Championship has been a walk in the park in the first 6 games" Johnson admitted to the media
"Are you worried your squad might suffer from overconfidence Mr Johnson?" asked the journalist
"Of course its a worry for most teams but I think the lads are very professional at Luverdense" answered Ralph
