Gis a job
The League Managers Association site is basically just another news site with an emphasis on managers instead of players. However, the members section - where out of work gaffers can post their CVs - looks like a bit of fun. Since we're looking for a new boss for the underachieving DangerHere Alexandra five-a-side team, we had a look at some of the candidates.

Now most of the lads CV's were joyless affairs. The likes of Roy Evans and Frank Clark simply pointed to a League Cup here and a promotion there. However, Mr. Terence Fenwick had no such recourse to achievement listing - his three-year spell at Portsmouth accruing little in the way of honours. While he was always Terry to us when he was ambling about after Maradona, the reinvented Terence feels compelled to compile a weighty Personal Statement to take the bare look off things.

Terence contends
I was able to greatly reduce the Club’s financial deficit but above all, develop youngsters of the quality of Russell Perrett, Lee Bradbury, Sammy Igoe, John Aloisi, Deon Burton and Aaron Flahaven – some of which were pluched (??) from non-league football and have become major assets to the Club.

I'm sure he'll get no argument there. Not content though, he continues.

....and for less than £1.3 million, I bought in players of the quality of David Hillier....

Even the ArmchairGooner couldn't raise a defence for this one. Though no doubt Quality Dave saved the club's travel department no end of cash by simply procuring any necessary luggage from airport carousels.

hot Mexicans
A look at Soccernet's global section brought news of a situation we usually only see at DangerHere Towers when Mack M gets tired of losing at FIFA 2000 and tries to get all his players sent off. A tense Mexican championship encounter between Pachuca and Puebla saw the home side take exception to their 4-1 drubbing, and incur the wrath of the amigo in black to the tune of four red cards. 

Another three then got the curly finger from a displeased gaffer before Raymundo Gonzalez shipped a knock and felt he couldn't possibly continue. The Pachuca lads were now down to six so the game was abandoned, much to the annoyance of the away team who sensed a handy opportunity to bolster the Goals For column.

The truncated fixture wasn't without its Irish interest too. Old World Cup foe Garcia Aspe was the beneficiary of the hosts indisipline, knocking in all four of the Puebla goals.

New two-a-side football game. Is it a joke or are they for real? Who can tell?
