Only a shortish part, but it'll do,



PART FIVE


?What the hell did you think you were doing back there?? Rasof asked his wife as he paced around the living room.


?Erm, I was just trying to have a laugh, love. We don?t have to worry about things like that anymore.?


?So, just because I?m England coach, you think you can get away with stupid, stupid things like that! The police don?t give a damn about the difference between an ?ordinary? person and someone with importance like me.?


?Fine then! I?ll go and sort it out ? gah, no sense of fun anymore.? She said as she left the house carrying the suit and her handbag.


-x-


?Hey, I?m back,? Honey shouted through the letterbox as the door was locked.


?You think I want you here after that stunt, what are you going to pull off next ? getting off with one of the players of something!?


?No! You can?t accuse me of doing something like that, I love you ? and only you. Come on, let me in, I want you. I bought some of your favourite bath smells as well.?


?Very well ? you win,? he said as he opened the door.


?Let?s go and have a bath darling.?


?Hang on! I?m just finishing off my apple pie, you know, the one you made for me yesterday!?


?Ohh, but I want to see you now ? I?ll go get ready, then you can join me yeh!?


?Okay, very well,? he said, calmly, although deep down he was still very angry about the suit incident, and was worried that she might do something else behind his back in he future. However, he put this behind him as he went upstairs to join his wife, in the soothing bath.

Part Six

PART SIX


Rasof got into his new Jaguar and drove off to the England headquarters where his first week in the new job was to culminate in the naming of the new England captain after the recent drop in form of David Jones.


When he reached the ECB, he noticed a gathering of press in a queue, he guessed it was for the Press Release of the new captain.


The thing is, he didn?t even know who he was going to pick as the new captain, he was going to have to ask advice. Who better to call upon than a now aged Geoffrey Boycott.


-x-


?So then, Ras, what did you (in his typical Yorkshire accent) want me for??


?Well Geoff, I need some help on deciding that captain, see, I need to name him today, but I?m really not sure!?


?Well, who have you got??


?James Downe and Monty Panesar.?


?Erm, well James has captained for us at Yorkshire before, so I?d go with him.?


So, as per usual, not agreeing with Boycott?s wit, Rasof decided to go for Monty Panesar.


-x-


ECB Press Room, how busy was it in there! Rasof thought to himself after leaving the room just to announce a slight delay.


?Get back in there now!? Jason whispered at Rasof, as the press became louder. Cameras flashed again as Rasof entered the room.


?Hello,? Rasof said nervously, ?I am here today to announce the new England captain after my recent appointment.?


?I have decided to appoint Monty Panesar as the new England captain. Thank you,? Rasof said as he rushed out of the press room to avoid bombardment.


?Bloody hell that press are crazy!? said Rasof as he walked to his office.


END OF EPISODE ONE


Next Time


Rasof walked down the street, as he did so, a group of thugs came up to him from behind and flattened him.


-x-


?Good afternoon all, I am here today to announce my 15 man training squad for the forthcoming ODI series against New Zealand, I?m sure you?ll all agree it is an excellent squad! So then, my first pick, and captain of the team, is Monty Panesar.?

A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF A CRICKET COACH

EPISODE TWO: SELECTION COMMITTEE

BY RHYS WILLIAMS



Part One



?Why Monty?? asked a small man from the Sun.



?Well, I felt that he had the experience and general knowledge to lead the team,? explained Rasof.



?Thanks, but, don?t you think that long-time star, Darren Brent should?ve been appointed??



?Well, obviously Darren has experience and has been a great captain from Leicestershire, but I feel that Monty has so much to offer in advice after taking his 701st test wicket.?



?OK, thank you.?



?No further questions to be asked thanks,? said the PA.



Rasof stood to leave the room. As he did so, the man from the Star glanced at him, and Rasof saw the glint of a knife out of the corner of his eye. This prompted him to quickly make his way out of the room.



?BLOODY HELL!? Rasof shouted when he reached the corridor. He knew that the small man could?ve done anything with that knife!



?Ras, what?s wrong?? asked Rasof?s PA.



?Oh, nothing, can you search the man from the Sun for me please??



?Why??



?I saw a knife in his pocket, he, he?glanced towards me!?



?Erm, OK then, but I can assure you that he won?t be a happy man.?



?Cheers.? As the PA left, Rasof went into his office and saw the man from the Sun in his office, Rasof just collapsed to the floor, and fell into a deep sleep.



Several minutes later, Rasof awoke in a scratty medical centre bed. He itched his back, and noticed the bedbugs crawling about. He made a groan, and stood up.



He approached the nurse, and looked at her. He could see a gun in her pocket ? he was so sure! So he ran, out of the medical centre, and into the safety of his office, again.



?Rasof,? said his PA, Gareth.



?Yes Ga??



?Well, you know the small man from the Sun??



?Yes, the one who tried to kill me in my own office!?



?You wha?? Anyway, we searched him about 20 minutes ago, and he had nothing on him. Are you sure you?re alright Rasof??



?Yes, yes, yes, yes. I?m fine, completely,? Rasof started to act very erratically and dangerously. He stared towards the shirt pocket of Gareth, and where there was once a pen, there was now a small knife.

Comments welcome... Part Two tomorrow...
