Dean Smith strode into the training ground with the confidence of a man dressed in black

leather motorcycle dungarees and a brown leather tassled fringe Hard Rock cafe bomber jacket.

"Good Morning Vietnammmmm" he bellowed at the assembled executives.

Webber stood forward to shake his hand and received a series of fluid yet complex hand gestures and formations along with a jovial "Howdy Doody partner"

"Can we get you a tea or coffee, Dean?"

"Americano, gracias. Do you do unlimited refills here? We should start doing that, love a few cups o' Joe with my pancakes and maple syrup"

As they toured the training facility, Dean finger pistolled and "peeoww"-ed everything which met with his approval, and simply said "s**tcan that Shakes" to everything which did not.

Craig Shakespear, dressed in matching leatherwear and mirrored aviators, replied "Copy that Maverick".

Webbers introduction to the facilities concluded in the players changing rooms.
"Nice, nice, you've gone minimal on the motivational stenicilling" beamed Dean. Shakes unzipped his leather bumbag.

"Grab the other end of this, Stupot" he snarled.
Webber held one end of the rubberised stencil up as Shakes used masking tape to fix it in place.

With the slogan in place across the changing room wall, Dean and Shakes eyed each other, hands slowly flexing over their thigh pockets. Suddenly they "drew", their hands a blur, the "rrrrrRRRRRRRRRR" of the zips, the "sSSSssSSSSSSSSSKKKkkkkkKKK" as they pulled the spraycans out and twirled them like Peacemakers.

Within 4 seconds it was done, a fierce black "WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS STAYS IN VEGAS" across the pristine white brickwork.

"Nice shootin' Sherriff" beamed Shakes, twirling his cans.
Dean tossed his pair of cans at Webber. "You can keep those. Souvenir." No natural sportsman, Webber fumbled the catches and the cans clattered to the floor.

"Sack the juggler!" the manager and assistant manager of Norwich City Football Club bellowed in unison.

On his way out, Webber clocked the pair of Honda Goldwings in the managers car park space, and knew for certain the Zoom interviews had been a big mistake.
