Match 20: Wigan Athletic

*We join the lads preparing for their return clash with Wigan*

MON: Today lads, it's about revenge.

A.Young: What's with the outfit boss?

*MON is stripped to the waist covered in boot polish and is wearing a red tie around his head*

MON: It's to symbolise the Rocky spirit Ashley. When Rocky lost to Apollo Creed he came back better and stronger to win, that is what I expect of you lads in this match.

Sidwell: but....

MON: Pipe down Steve your views and impact on games are irrelevant, anyway as I was saying did losing stop Rocky winning? No. Did having a brain disease that would certainly kill him should he fight stop him? No. That's what I want from you lads.

Carew: You want us to get killer brain diseases?

MON: No! To fight and to win!

Dunne: Are you not Rambo dere from the filim Rambo bass?

MON: I'm Rocky from the film Rambo, you know when he did his brief stint in the army? I ordered the boxing shorts from eBay but they were too big so I had to improvise and go for his army days.

Guzan: It's John Rambo in Rambo boss.

MON: No young Bradley I think you'll find ....

*MON reads the back of the DVD on which he's modeled himself*

MON: Balls. Well then this bit of the team talk isn't going to make much sense then.

*MON presses play on a CD player, James Brown's "Living in America" blasts out. Brad Friedel bursts into the room wearing a big "Uncle Sam" hat with stars and striped shorts, boots and long sequined jacket.*

Friedel: Whoooo! Yeah! Everybody! Rocky Spirit!

*Friedel stops suddenly*

Friedel: What's going on, why are you dressed as Rambo? I thought we were doing Rocky?

MON: Yes, it appears our plan has failed. Lads I want you to instead adopt the Rambo spirit.

Guzan: You want us to what? Kill everyone?

MON: Yes, kill them all.
