One Minute Manager

Last updated : 26 November 2012 By DSG

The career expectancy of a football manager seems to be getting shorter. It won?t be long before they rival the life cycle of a May Fly (24 hours if you?re wondering). Here?s a tongue-in-cheek poem that examines what may happen if current trends are followed to their logical conclusion.


Press Conference

I am the club?s new Manager
I?m excited to be the boss
We?ll take one game at a time
And win everything, even the toss

I met the lads this morning
And they?re all over the moon
I laid down the law as I see it
And I?m sure we?ll play better soon

The training session was lively
And sometimes emotions run wild
Yes, I called him a muppet
But he acted like a spoilt child

I don?t think I?ve lost the dressing room
Players should keep off Twitter
And let their football do the talking
Not post tweets that are twisted and bitter

I wasn?t aware the Chairman said that
I?m sure that?s a misquote
He said the board were right behind me
And I?d been given a confidence vote

I?ve just been sacked as Club manager
I gave it my best shot
I?m physically and emotionally drained
I?m off for six week with the millions I?ve got
