[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Really nice interview Treva , you will be famous now soon , i am getting addicted day by day to this story

 

[MWaugh]

haha MWaugh I knew you would come up with that stat!

If you have noticed I have tried to lay off the stories lately and so most of them was when I was new to PC. The problem is I get bored sooo easily, but this one does interest me as I am trying to improve my writing skills also.

P.S Nice to see you back MWaugh

I popped into Greggs for my lunch. Decided to have a Cornish Pasty and a nice Ring Doughnut. After I had eaten my lunch in the Audi I then decided I would drive down to the office. To be honest Worksop Town didn't seem like much of a place, but with myself not having to live here it wouldn't really be much of a problem. I stepped into the office and went to meet the chairman. We sat down and we had a chat about things. He talked to me about what players I was thinking of buying and selling and where the training facilities and everything was situated. I told him about the dealings I had already sorted out and he said fine, but in future try and contact him first. He then said that I should go meet the rest of the staff. First I was to see the managing director, Peter Robson. He told me that if I ever needed to chat with him about the club or something that I wanted doing, then to go to him. Next I went to see my assistant, who would be a very important person with him being at the club a while and could help me with players and so on. Peter Price was his name and we sat down and had a long chat about training days and which players are best at which position and so on. He also mentioned a few key positions we lacked in. The main of it he said was letting in goals, which was fantastic news to myself as I had already tried to bag a few defensive players off the market and was interested in a very young keeper. We discussed training plans and after a few hours we came up with this:

With most of the players on part time contracts (21 out of 25), we couldn't really get a decent schedule in. But we thought that with us being only a minute club on the scale of English football, it would make no difference. We then discussed pre-season friendlies and we finalised 3 matches:

19th July, Babbage Way - vs Watford
30th July, Babbage Way - vs Thurrock
8th August, Babbage Way - vs Blackburn Reserves

The first game is going to be an absolute killer for a first match in charge. But they offered us and we decided to accept due to possible funds coming in through gate reciepts. Next we are to play Thurrock which will be a tight game, with them a side in the Conference South and at about the same level. Finally we shall play Blackburn Reserves, at home again. It should be a good game and maybe a great chance to spot some good players we could snatch up...

 

[pinchinator]

yeah you take over this club Trev keep it up i guess

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Treva , you need some good players , to have a success in this league all the best for ur upcoming matches , nice story and presentation bro

 

[rabeta]

Yea, I would comment on your lunch but we don't have a Greggs in Jersey lol. If I was the chairman I would kick you out for doing dealings behind his back lol. Yep, I like the schedule so you gotta make sure the players turn up otherwise you fine them lol. Looking forward to the pre-season friendlies, hope they are good games but of course Worksop will win

 

[treva]

I decided to go home early after speaking to the staff. I got some fish and chips on the way back for me dinner. Haddock not cod, Haddock much nicer. Cracked out the vinegar and salt and then sat down in front of the telly and started to watch Sir Alan Sugar rollock some wannabe "Sir Alan Sugar's" on the Apprentice. Decided to get an early night ready for a big day for buisness tommorrow.

Next Day
I woke up to the sound of my telephone ringing. I thought, who could that be? Parents? Sisters? I picked up the phone and groggily said hello. It was Nick Clark's agent who I approached a few days back about signing. He told me that Nick would love to sign for Worskop Town FC and would be on his way to us in a few days. This was great news, he would be here in time for the Watford game so he can show us how good he is then. Now to make some breakfast on that good news. A full English! Bacon, Baked Beans, Sausage and Hash Browns. No mushrooms for me, just don't like em. Never have never will, they just dont have no taste. Anyways, after my lovely morning breakfast it was back to the desk for me. After some looking at my squad and thinking about who will play where, I get another call, this time from Ben Thornley's agent. Bang, another player signed! Things looking good as the pre-season friendlies draw nearer....

Ben Thornley, ex-Man U player, what a signing!​

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Trev, you always mention about your foods ...... lol , those two signups were great,you are moving in a good direction , i love this story ,cant wait for the next updates

 

[rabeta]

Yea two good signings there. Ben Thornely will add very good experience to you team. Keep the story up Trev, it's going very well...

 

[treva]

Lunch time comes and goes as I gulp down a few bread rolls and a chocolate muffin. I go onto the "Worksop Today" newspaper website to see if they had an article on their about my interview. There was, and a very interesting one to. Suprisingly they had not edited anything I had said, which I expected, and I felt satisfied that I had been officially announced on the tinternet. Now to more important matters! I rang up the chairman asking about the situation with Sam Collier, the 16 year old keeper from Wimbledon. Howard told me that the deal had fallen through after Sam Collier had accepted the contract. It seems that if we want him we have to give Wimbledon £8,000 compesation. Which was a complete bugger and meant i would need to find another keeper to join us. So time to get searching.

I found a few candidates that would fit the bill. In the end I decided to go for the almost impossible player to persuade to come to Worksop Town FC. His name, Otto Konrad a 40 year old expert of a keeper from Salzburg. A very old player nearing the end of his career from a massive club compared to Worksop, an almost certaintity he would not come. But still I put in an offer and thought, lets wait and see what happens.

Time to turn off the pc and rest for the rest of the evening. No more dealings today!

Next Day
Not much really happened, just a few days off for me now until first day of training on the 15th (2 days away)
