European Jailbreak: Episode 6- Settling In

Having achieved all could he could with Slavia Kromeritz, Laurent Legrande (Tom) has found himself a new home. After a successful interview, he finds himself appointed SV Waldhof manager. His new home- Germany, his new division - Bundesliga 3.

After being relegated from Bundesliga 2, the squad has been picked clean of stars. With the side's best players leaving with their relegation release clauses triggered. However, with the coffers full, Legrande has been able to sign several new young, gifted, and hard working players.

Will this ambitious manager be able to guide this side full of young hungry players straight back up? Or will the challenges of adapting to a new country and level of competition trip up the disgraced financier turned football manager?

Whilst Albert Wiseman's (Lewis), Greek odyssey is over. He leaves AEK Athens as Greek Super League title winners. However, he leaves in disgrace, as a poor performance in the cup final means crosstown rivals Olympiacos win the Greek cup. And with the Greek press revealing his true identity as a career con-man. The club asks him politely to jump before he is pushed.

The result- Wiseman dropping everything and making a dash across the border into Bulgaria. He ends up in the Bulgarian resort town of Krumovgrad- where he holidays waiting for another managerial opportunity to come along. Where by coincidence would have it Kruovgrad themselves go on a poor run, and sack their manager. Whilst not initially convinced, Wiseman's charm and charisma win the board round at interview.

Consequently, he finds himself going from managing a top European Club, to being embroiled in a relegation dog fight with Krumovgrad sat 13 out of 16 clubs. With half the season already gone- can Wiseman do enough to stop the rot? Or will his downturn in fortunes only continue to get worse?
