Football Manager 2009.

I present you with Plymouth Argyle FC.

Plymouth Argyle: A team punching above their weight, in the Coca Cola Championship. A team who have the longest away trips and the shortest highlights on the football league show. A team that were featured by "that" Aviva advert.. It was funny the first 62 times but now its just plain boring.

Connor Clarke: A young English manager, who wanted a challenge. He came to the right place. Paul Sturrock had left Argyle in a mess. Chairman Paul Stapleton contacted the big managers but with no success. It was left down to one advert placed in the local paper, which found Connor Clarke. The interview proccess with Stapleton was hard but it would be worth it. On July 1st 2008, Plymouth Argyle announced they had brang in Clarke on a 2 year contract. The fans were not happy. But Clarke will be out their to prove himself.
