I don't know if we're keeping it open for another three hours so these results are still provisional. Although, by the looks of it, I doubt anyone higher rated than the two lads will apply. I could be wrong though! :pac:


Amazingly though, I'm only just behind the two lads, in 18th!

After spending several hours drawing up the long list of pros along with the relatively short list of cons of both applicants, the Manchester Utd Chief Executive, Ed Woodward, still couldn't decide which manager would be best suited to take the club forward. It was a this point when he decided to flip a coin in order to choose which applicant would be the successful candidate.

The coin landed on heads, which Ed had already assigned to the current Chelsea manager Ricky O'Flaherty, resulting in Ed Woodward faxing over a contract to Mr. O'Flaherty's private residence on the clubs brand new fax machine.

It is not yet know as to whether Ricky has responded as of yet.

Yeah, it hasn't updated since Ricky was appointed Utd manager, you're actually both 16th apparently.
