If theres one thing I can take from last years football manager its that I have a worrying ability to make the seemingly simple; extremley complicated, long winded and ultimatley fruitless, so with that in mind its only right that I take a serious shot at the landmark challenge of this forum...

The Pentagon.

For those that dont know, heres a brief over view of what it entails...

I will be starting unemployed with Sunday league reputation, with the eventual goal to win the European, African, Asian, CONCACAF Champions League and Copa Libertadores trophies, which I will be attempting to do from the following countries...

I might be unfashionably late to jump on the band wagon but following Laudrups epic career last year and a host of other inspiring attempts, I can't sit back and admire any longer.

With only one day off a week and a serious case of poor time management, I cant promise this will be the most updated of careers, or even the most entertaining but if you stick with me, I'll hopefully have won one trophy before you all realise how bad I am at this management lark.

So before I self pitty myself into not even loading the game, I will get this thing started....

I think you might have been the only person to read this before I changed it into a Pentagon challenge Exodus, sorry about that but yeah Derby certainly do have some awesome talents in their team, I doubt they will be here for long though!

Cheers Dan, I'm not a big fan of sequels so I figure a new challenge is needed!

Thanks BOWC, I appreciate it, sorry I never got round to finishing it.

So like any true start to a Pentagon career I applied for every job going and hoped for the best.

Within just one day of job searching my inbox was quickly filled with six potential job offers.

Not wishing to push my luck I opted to accept one of them there and then and jump head first into this challenge and of course there was only one way to efficently chose which team to manage...which one had the most kick ass name.

Welcome to Daejeon Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power...FC


If I'm honest, I have absolutley no knowledge of Southern Korean football, the names confuse the hell out of me and I already regret chosing a team based on the fact they have the word "Power" in their name but regardless of these minor issues, I think with a little bit of work and my faithful 4-1-2-1-2 formation, I will soon be out of this league on on to bigger and more sensible countries, one things for sure though I won't be doing it through some transfer market wizardry.

So theres no money but to be quite honest I'm not sure I need to change anything, as despite the fact they've not had a manager for three months, have only sixteen players and have never played in the top flight since 1945, they some how find themselves at the top end of the table and comfortably in the all important playoff spots.

Time for me to come in and put an end to that.


The club has just come out of the end of the mid season break so I have just thirteen games to make sure Daejon Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power...FC, dont slip out of the top six.

Challenge Accepted!
