7.11 - Going Down

11.

UK glossary. To go down. Phrasal verb

Comments

"Don't you know I'm a god? You can't pile on me." Mate, the line of this chapter and maybe the whole arc.

Holy shit, good catch! I was expecting either a fakeout, Chris Hale changing his mind last minute or the players petitioning to reinstate Max. Now your theory takes the top spot. The Grimsby arc is definitely not over btw, we still haven't resolved the mole situation.

A few chapters ago, Max told that same owner to give his coach one last chance to “win or you’re out” for the next game. I assume Wolfie is about to tell Max that same thing will be applied to him.

He gets sacked and then players revolt to get him back? I'm stressed

James Probert

This one was pretty crazy but the whole Grimsby arc was leading to it so I pretty much knew how I wanted to matches to go and they are fairly fast to write. A few of the 'theme' bits (he who teaches learns etc) came earlier than usual so I was able to do the rewrite earlier and when you get a good idea in one section sometimes it enriches the other sections and it all just sort of came off the bat pretty easy this time. Believe me, it isn't always this 'easy'!

Short for another wildly popular story on RR and Patreon. Super Supportive.

What's soup?

nero

How about for maximal chaos "we've decided to offer Best a 1M deal to manage Grimsby for 3 years"

nero

Loved this chapter

Lessons Learnt. TYFC!

Jordan Buie

That's as good as saying nothing. Stuff like that is what social media is for. And as a reader, if there's a cliff I expect it to pay off next chapter. It's an announcement about something important. Maybe they found a new manager?

Uncle Snoo

Gaaaaaaaah, I hate you so much right now! This one's up there with your very best chapters, but Jesus that cliff!

BelligerentGnu

Well I think it's probably going to be something like "Following a disappointing run of two points from a possible twelve, we understand Grimsby fans disappointment, but would like to reassure fans of our utmost faith in Max and the team."

nero

I think so too! There's only about 5 chapters left in the book. Time to go back.

Uncle Snoo

Great chapter. Only this story can get me so hyped up with every climax hitting just right

Robert Varney

What a chapter! Surely they've sacked him because what kind of unhinged human starts a "this dude is fine" statement like that lol?

nero

Dude having soup and PM in the same day is so good

andrew felber

We’re not gonna get any max post game are we? Dang. But I just read for 30 minutes, so it balances out. My heart is beating hard.

K

I need a shower after that one, Absolute banger.

Matthew The Bread Smith

How are you able to write soo much so fast? Increadible

tobias merz

Holy shit what’s ride. 10 solid minutes of applause mate!

Caerold

extra long cliff but worth it keep the jokes in the books

RiC

amazing chapter!

Enigmaniac

Just so you know, I just got off work. Soup released with this. I’m reading yours first. Two thumbs!

Caerold

THAT WAS FUCKING HYPE! AMAZING WORK AS ALWAYSS!!

Enzo

Absolute banger of a chapter

Jake Lewis

Fuck me, now that was a chapter. Basically everything I love about this series in one go - culture chat, redemption arcs, podcast transcript, matches. And then that cliffhanger with an 80% chance of no chapter on Monday. I can't even be mad, that was about 3 chapters' worth of content.
