It was my birthday, just turned sweet sixteen, and for a present, i got something i wasn't excepting... a card. I picked up the card and read it. It was a card from the manager of a Irish football team, offering me a trial run. Sweet!, i thought, but this meant i had to leave my family, so i did, but i promised to write to them everyday..
I arrived at the Ireland airport, and some strange people saw me, and the next minute i know, i was in a car with people i didn't know. I'm getting kidnapped in Ireland the second i enter the country. I closed my eyes, hoping i wouldn't get hurt by these people. An hour later, i poked my head out the window, and i saw we were heading near a football pitch, and i saw the sign saying "Oxford United Stars Football Team" and then, i heard the brakes stop the car.
After a few minutes, i heard laughter. The next thing i know, the football players that were practicing pulled me out the car, laughed at me, and explained what happened. Apparently, they did a prank on me, and it worked.
After everyone had a good laugh, the manager pulled me aside from the group, and gave me the trial as promised.
I did really well, and passed every test to my manager's liking.. So much that i received a 5 year contract with the team.. and i signed, and then, jumped in the air and ran around screaming for half an hour.

And oh, this isn't from the game. I'm making this up as i go along. Is that ok?
