Something you sim gamers and wannabe coaches will appreciate...

Man applies for job as Manager of Middlesborough based on FM (WSM) playing experience... the reply from the club chairman is gold.

That's great. Middlesborough just became my favorite team in the Premiere League.

And on the Boro Rivals forum thread the author of the application said that he's going to apply for another managerial position in Europe and use Gibson's response as a reference. Greatness.

Absolutely fantastic stuff.

Great tongue-in-cheek 'application' and wonderfully deadpan response from the Chairman.

Top notch stuff!

That is fantastic.
