From when I was a young boy, to the present day, I've supported Tottenham Hotspur and have held a season ticket for the past ten years with my dad and brother. Despite not being able to witness any major success so far, winning the Worthington Cup, Carling Cup and qualifying for the Champions League to name the few I have, I've been lucky enough to see some top class players grace the pitch at White Hart Lane. Jurgen Klinsmann, Gareth Bale, Luka Modric, Dimitar Berbatov and many more have come and gone during the topsy turvy life of a Spurs fan. But one player in particular was my favourite and someone who I idolised during his time in North London. That person was Teddy Sheringham. He wasn't the quickest, but his intelligence on the pitch, an eye for a pass, the ability to score some fantastic goals and the leadership skills he showed, always got me thinking he had the attributes to be a manager.
Since retiring Teddy took up a role as attacking coach at West Ham, while gaining some of his coaching badges. Then out of the blue in July 2015, he was offered the manager's job at Stevenage. " If you had mentioned management 14 months ago, I would've said it wasn't happening. But I had the urge to get back in and felt the Stevenage job was right for me. I just love being involved in the football scene, the banter, the whole thing. " He said when interviewed about taking his first step into management.
This story will follow Teddy's managerial adventure, starting at Stevenage, to see if he can become one of the great managers. And having worked under some of the best in business, Sir Alex Ferguson, Terry Venables and Brian Clough, it should put him in good stead to have a good career in the dugout.

At Christmas I received a MacBook Pro from Santa and with my laptop being on it's last legs, I tried transferring my old save over to my new computer. Unfortunately, whatever tips I followed, I couldn't get the save to work. So I'm re-starting and will be aiming to do just as well as I was in the previous save. I hope the people that followed my last save will continue with this one, as it's a save I'm really enjoying and the comments/likes help keep the motivation going.
EDIT: A big thank you to xJamieWiliams and PaperClipFMer, who's stories helped me decided to begin my own story following the footsteps of an ex-professional footballer. Finally, another big thank you to Th3King, who very kindly designed my header.
