| Time's up, Mr Brendans. Get out. |
And that was reason enough to get rid of him in our book. But how is the BRuss coping at the helm of Livercoolio?
Well according to close colleague and former friend Rick Beecroft [RS-TBoy],
"He thinks he’s bearing up ok… Showing no signs of weakness... in conversation but it’s a ‘press conference mask’. Given the fact he’s subbed half of his squad already… we know there are grass root problems at Livercoolio HQ. First year we've not had a tenner on it and look how it shows... Brodge had to go, Russ reckons he should have had more time – more time to what? Lose more weight?"...a stinging assessment for sure. And one that was made before it was revealed that Russell Bielby is this week's Manager of the Week.
Yes. Livercoolio scored a Russnificent 24 points. In view of the fact that Mr Bielby didn't win a single Manager of the Week certificate on his way to winning the Championship last season we can't help but think that this minor victory hasn't put the kibosh on this season's 'project' for glory.
He can't make it three seasons in a row can he?

Honourable Mr President
How can I fail to respond to your hint? Let Aguero be recruited. Not being one of those who think all ills are cured by sacking the manager [no, I don’t agree with their decision] I shall shift the team around.
So, Young Man, please be so good as to effect the following transfers. I do not wish Irishpool to linger in this lowly position any longer.
IN
492 Milner
684 Aguero
OUT
543 Oscar
738 Benteke.
And I shall expect an elevated league position in future
Thank you as always,
Bombastic from Bassett

Dear Mr Presidente
OOps!
What are the rules - may i change my mind about my proposed transfer as we haven’t reached Monday?
Hearing that Aguero has been injured, may I withdraw my change, thus:
OUT
684 Aguero
IN
624 Sanchez
Yours humbly (for once)

That's more like it. Bit of pleading goes a long way.

Subject: Transfers Please.
Dear Chairman
I have returned from my brief spell of (successfully) coaching the English rugby team out of contention for the World Cup. With those targets met, I am able to return all of my attention to Neil's Diamonds and I see that I need to make some changes:
Out:
117 F Forster
322 P Jones
483 J Shelvey
In:
114 H Lloris
331 S Dann
465 S Mane
Thanking you
Mr Diamonds
----------------------
Chairman responds:
Well, congratulations. May you repeat your losing feat for the Diamonds. Looks like you're trying very hard at least. Dann? Lloris? Madness.
