More notes from the files of Janz:

"Your rent is past due. Pay up. And throw away your empty bottles."

"Stop calling this office. You don't work here anymore."

"Mr. Janz, it is our pleasure to inform you that we will offer you the position of manager for the footballing branch of our sport club in Novalja. While some of the reports we have received from your former employers have not been the best, we were very impressed by the phone call we received from someone at the Juventus organization. We think you are the man for the job here at Novalja.

Please ignore all previous wire reports that we had offered the managerial position to anyone else. You know how these rumor-mongers like their stories.

We can send a boat at your convenience. One of the local businessmen has a regular route delivering cargo to Italy from here. (Just don't ask too many questions, he's a really private person.)

Signed <unreadable>

P.S. Don't open any of the packages on the boat either."

"You owe me money. I expect a check in the mail by next week. I know where you live -- P H-G"

Lucky Pants bemoans the lack of decent elastic for his shorts in Luxembourg, but is pleased to note that he has been scouted by a man with equal drinking capacity to his father, the legendary Big Pants.

He is, however, concerned that Herman Toothrot may be a better winger than Lucky, and is wishing that he's bothered to include crossing the ball as one of his stats.

The following text was printed from a web bulletin board, and included in Janz' notebooks:

"
Member Name: MUFC Fan for Ever

Who is Giuseppi Rashi? We bid for him I heard

Member Name: Owen's Balls

Who cares? He's gonna suck.

Member Name: Sweet16gurl

See nekkid pics of me here: <edited>

Member Name: Arsenal Fan

He's Ferguson's love child.

Member Name: Henry for PM

LOL

Member Name: coolkid8140

Whaver dood.

Member Name: Serious Football Fan

He's supposed to be pretty good. I think he's from sdan marino.

Member Name: Soccer is for Wussies

Dan Marino kicks ***. You losers need to watch real man's football
"
...

clipped news items from unknown papers, translated where necessary:

"Dinamo have bid for youth player von Richtofen."

"Unknown player von Richtofen, from Denmark, has been also targeted by Sampdoria."

"Luxembourg player Rikjard Den rooster has agreed to terms with lower division Spanish club Jaen."

"Racing lost out on their bid for Faroe Islander Santos L. Halper to Sedan."

"Eugen Hach needs to go! It's clear that Greuther Furth needs a higher profile manager if the best he can get is a Faroe Islander, Jon Walker. With the available talent on the market, we should have no need to look like a small club scouring the bottom of the barrel...."

"Ejido have signed a striker from San Marino. Player's name has yet to be confirmed."

"Corrections: We mistakenly reported yesterday that Nimes had signed a youth goalkeeper named Madcap. The player's correct position is midfielder."

Handwritten note: Shambles has signed with Sibenik. AVOID SIBENIK!

"Interviewer: So Mr. Wassilew, any new signings we should watch for this season at Union Berlin?

G. W.: Yes. Quite a few, we've picked up a nifty winger who should be fun to watch. Toothrot is his name. and then there is also..."

"No-one seems quite sure who this Raschi player is, but Sir Alex Ferguson has brought him into the Manchester United set-up. The club outbid 8 other interested clubs of Europe, including Niort, Amiens, and AIK."

"Slaven Belupo have signed Gilles Lefty"

"Recent Signings:
Hercules - Ulrich Von, Liechtenstien international"

Minor headline in section titled "Strange News": "Jesus comes to Italy. It took long enough, but citizens of Cagliari might be let down..."

"... Brian Green has also signed here at Union Berlin. We had a lot of competition for him."

"Roma continue splurge of buying with yet another free transfer, this time one from Faroe named von Richtofen. What is going on?"

"Local police today arrested a young man for exposing himself in public in downtown Braunschweig. The young man claimed his pants had accidentally fallen down as he stepped of the bus, and that if they would just let him talk to his club, he could clear things up. Police say they are keeping the youth under observation until his identity can be verified."

Typewritten note: "He signed. Thanks. Now we're square. Don't talk to me again. Your ex-friend at Juve."

"Non-league club Lubeck have signed San Marino player Maximo Janz."

"Mannheim were luckily released from a strange transfer today as Luxembourg 'striker' Allan Juel Hansen failed a medical. The club thankfully gets to avoid another 'hot prospect' disaster."

"Coventry beat out 8 other clubs for a hot goalkeeper. Sounds good right, but the goalkeeper's name is Tanis Eltanad. We're really wondering about this one."

"Pablo Hiura-Garcia contacted the Huddersfield times today saying he was pleased to have joined an English side. Would someone who knows who Hiura-Garcia is please let us know?"

"Monaco signings - Allan Juel Hansen (details unknown)"
