This is on PS2 so no in game screenies but will use as many pics as i can.
The phone starts ringing at 7 am
"Hello"
"Hi is that Mr O'Connor?"
"Yeah who is this."
"Would it be possible for you to come to Lords?"
"Yeah sure why do you want me to come?"
"You will find out in due time"
I start to get ready wondering what the hell is going on i assume to do a coaching session of some kind i had a successful career for Essex And Ireland i got a lot of stick by choosing Ireland as i could of played for England as well but i am a paddy so there was no real choice.
I go outside about to get in my Jag and there is a limo parked in front of my drive i go over to try to get the ******* to move.
"Move out the way mate i need to be somewhere."
"Mr O'connor right?"
"Yeah why?"
"Im here to take you to Lords."
Im in shock now this is getting weird.
I get asked to sit down by the receptionist
Half an hour passes and im still waiting finally i get asked to go in.
I sit down.
"Mr O'connor there has been some problems in the England camp."
I ****ing knew it all this wait for a shitty coaching job.
"Duncan Fletcher has left so we want you to be the Manager."
"Yeah sure."
"Ok now pick a team for the world cup we have to leave in 2 days."
"ok"
