Karl Robinson bought a Ferrari but didn't know how to look after it.
Liam Manning thought it too flash, problematic and probably more trouble than it was worth.
Des Buckingham restored it, polished it and primed it ready to perform.
Step forward Josh Murphy!
So how is everyone spending Wembley Eve? My early merch search was only partially successful so another hunt after running my son around. Will squeeze in a beer too.
I know! Day off today as working Sunday and achieving very little, apart from printing the tickets.
Going round the house on a merch search next as no idea where half the stuff is. I'll be the one in retro stuff - minus the scarf my nan knitted in the 60s which is too fragile for active service.
Anyone know what time and where the team coach will be leaving from today?
By chance I was with my daughter (4 years old at the time) when they left for Wembley from the Kassam in 2010. The "glory awaits you" banner was held up IIRC.
All this is a bit premature in my view.
Firstly, winning tomorrow is a very big if.
Secondly, we don't know if he will be successful with his applications for the Liverpool and Oxford City jobs (or any others that be ome available between now and August).
