Magnier and McManus meet Sir John
Coolmore Stud
Magnier and McManus are awaiting the arrival of Sir John.
JP “When is he due here then John?”
JM “Should be here any time now. Getting nervous are we?”
JP “Me. Nervous. Never.”
JM “Liar. I was watching you when Rock was on for his 7th win in a row and you were shaking.”
Someone enters the room.
JM “Sir John I take it?”
Sir John SJ “Yes. It is I. Care to enlighten me as to what you would like done? Be warned however I don't suffer fools lightly.”
JM “Well we know all about your reputation.”
JP “Yes is it true you ate a baby?”
JM “Shut up JP. Stopping making yourself in to more of a prat than usual.”
SJ “I'll neither confirm or deny the baby eating rumour as it kind of enhances my menace somewhat.”
JM “Anyway back to what you asked. We are suffering from a minor problem called Sir Alex Ferguson. Ever since we got him fired we've been receiving threats. Naturally it's normal for us to get threats but we know Sir Alex is behind some of them. He sent some one after my chief Jockey to pass a little message along.”
SJ “I see where things are at the moment and I can certainly find out who is aiding Sir Alex. I can also formulate a plan of action for you to get your revenge, so to speak. Naturally my services are not cheap but until I figure out the plan of action and find out who is Sir Alex's helper I'll only charge my standard meeting fee of £50,000.”
JM “Hand over the money JP.”
JP reaches into his pocket and pulls out a large wad of bank notes.
JP “Here you are Sir John. I only have one little request from Keiran. Can you do something about the bloke that attacked him?”
SJ “I am sure that can be worked into the plan very easily. I'll get back to you in a few weeks with my plan and fees.”
JM “Ta Sir John. See ya in a few weeks.”
