The annual Bragging Rights Dream Team Christmas dinner saw the presentation of the December Manager of the Month award as part of the after-dinner programme of entertainment. Following an energetic display by “exotic acrobat” troupe “Legs Akimbo”, joint Masters of Ceremony Cannon and Ball announced the winners in the traditional reverse order.

It was left to venue security to secure the stage while the octogenarian has-beens were ushered to a waiting fast car, as Moore-T took to the stage to claim his award from an empty podium.

”Friends ,fellow managers and losers”, he began. “It gives me no end of pleasure to be acknowledged as the foremost tactical mastermind in the world of imaginary football management. Some of my innovations have already been widely recognised and adopted by some of the top brains in the game. I have it on good authority that Jürgen Klopp has threatened his team with a barefoot run home from Sunderland, while Antonio Conte has already had 11 horses killed in preparation as ‘pillow ornaments’ after his next defeat.”

After going on for a considerable time, Moore-T finally looked up from his notes to be confronted by an empty hall, while the remaining guests escaped in a fleet of hastily arranged taxis. Unperturbed, Moore-T continued with his speech, only stopping when the cleaners arrived next morning to set up for the Banbridge Dermatologist Association “Rash of the Year” event the next day.
