Story of the Week [for the week 03.03 to 09.03.2008]

“Hold on, Honey. There’s a ruckus here. Hey, you two! What are you quibbling about?”

“Coach, this guy here says that its possible for a team to have two managers. One for the Barclays Premier League and the other for the UEFA Champions League. It’s what we are arguing over!”

“What’s there to argue about? I agree with that chap. In fact, if I may say so, it’s a pretty nifty idea, laddie!”

“But coach, don’t you see the problems associated with this? Why, it’s like being married to two wives. And as Matthew 6:24 says, ‘No one can serve two masters’”

“Of course you can have two wives, boy! The wifey is in England and the other bitch is on the continent. It’s as simple as getting used to sleeping on different beds! You follow one strategy in the BPL and another in the CL. Just like you sleep on the left side of the bed in London and on the right side in Paris! Tchah! Boys these days have no imagination!”

“But, coach…”

“Enough! There is no argument. I am inclined to agree with that chap. Fine brains that lad has. Maybe we should get another coach to improve our Champions League record. Now run along, boys. Get back to your warm up… Now, Janet honey… Where was I?”

“My name is Liz. Not Janet. I will have the divorce papers ready when you reach home!”

The phone clicked off.
