My son (UK commercials film producer - yeah you've seen the ads on TV, like that car that skates) and I (UK national journo/author/ gob on legs broadcaster/ PHD student) , have been trying to come up with the kind of ad which would attract a manager to LCFC. We're flummoxed. And between us we have three First Class degrees,one of those an Oxford Double First, which we could plead counts for two? But we're not pushing that.
Anyway, here's the challenge that we've been unable to resolve between us.
What on earth would attract any footie manager to come here (apart from money)?
The job spec is clear - do what MM says or be sacked without notice. Allow MM full rein. Don't talk back. Have personality, but don't have gonads. Agree that MM's money talks, and you can't talk back. Come up with a masterplan to get a team that has never played together, working together, and get them into the Prem in 7 months. Find a role for the disaffected - like Matty Fryett, and the bad buys - and do we really have to name them all.......
How would you frame this ad, so that someone other than CW would take the money and DO the job?
:)
 
Spineless gimp wanted to DO a job (happy?)

I can't think of anything that would make this an attractive post for a manager. You pretty much have no creative input in terms of signings, some old fart is constantly looking over your shoulder (possibly chipping in occassionally with 'only me' and 'you don't wanna do it like that') and you MUST do as you are told.

Personally I'd rather eat my own turd than work for a person like that.
 
Tony Blair's on the look out for a job I think.

He's got personality, but he won't talk back, he's spineless and he's used to taking orders from a foreigner. Perfect!

The Transformers began with the 1970s Japanese toy line, so fair play to your son. He must be a multi millionaire (yen of course)....:icon_wink
 
And the best part is that when the signings that you did not sign play like shite YOU get the blame for it.
 
Tony looks pretty sharp though

Can he play Left Back? Player manager?
 
I may be thick as **** but i think a good add to attract many would be...........

"3 year contract. you'll have no input, but that means feck all because if you are good or shite and get sacked you'll get plenty compo"
 
Are you a positive person? Like to say, "Yes"?
Do you hold no particular opinions upon the game of football?
Then I have got the job for you.....
Apply to; Sir, Leicester City Football Club, England.
(No previous experience preffered. Full staff provided)

Excellent!
Congrats to Innocent as well for a wittily composed tongue-in-cheek thread. Like all good satire, it reveals much of the truth.
