With the second half of the season beckoning will Laurent Legrande's (Tom) Slavia Kromeritz side, make their early season success count? With the semi-pro side sat first in the Czech second flight, can his rag tag band of journeymen and loanee youngsters keep up the form when it matters? Or will it all fall apart when things matter the most?

Whilst Albert Wiseman (Lewis), having successfully kept Tilykratis in the second flight, spent the summer overhauling the squad and spending the club's entire wage budget. The only small problem being that the club had 13 first team players on the books, and 6 of them were Central Midfielders. At this point he did what he knew how to do best and disappeared in scandal and ignominy.

Having reappeared again in December after slipping away for a couple of holidays, Wiseman has successfully blagged his way to being handed the AEK Athens job. With such a convincing track record, and a squad full of international regulars- how could this end anything other than badly?
