In a move that has shocked the world of football, former manager of hated rivals Padston Villa Paddy Mckeever has been appointed new boss of Underdogz United.
We caught up with Paddy at his unveiling at the Surprise Stadium:
"this has all come out of the blue really, after my shock sacking today at Padston I was happy to bide my time take loads of money off Flavio Badgertorie in court and then probably manage Nigeria at the world cup but then out of the blue the phone rang and it was the Underdogz new chairman Gary Coleman, he'd been watching sky sports news when the story of my sacking broke and he told me he'd always been a big fan he asked what it would take for me to come save his side from relegation, I told him that I wanted the club moved to England from Malaysia and for him to be honest with me about funds and recruitment. A few hours later the Surprise stadium had been airlifted to a field in the Midlands along with forty thousand Malaysian Underdogz fans so I couldn't turn him down then and the opportunity to manage in the top flight is one I'm looking forward to"
We asked Paddy how he thought his new players would react to his arrival given the back and forth in the press between former manager Izuka and Mckeever:
"That's all in the past, myself and Izuka had a love hate relationship, there was always some mutual respect there and Henning Bade has already come and apologised to me and told me he's looking forward to helping me try and drag the club away from the relegation spots"
Well there you have it, just when we thought we'd lost the inane ramblings of Mckeever from the RMI for good he pitches up at his biggest rivals!
Ironic? Definitely but we sensed that Mckeever is deadly serious about keeping the Underdogz in the top flight and proving himself as a manager.
