Media Reactions & Board Meeting
Final Meeting with the Squad –
A week after the final, the celebrations had finally settled. The parades, the parties, the city-wide madness—it was all done. Now, it was time to look ahead.
The players sat inside the meeting room at the training ground, some still riding the high of Wembley, others already focused on next season.
Jake stood at the front, arms crossed, scanning the room. He had built this team from nothing, but League One? That was a different beast.
He wasn't here just to survive.
He was here to dominate.
He took a deep breath, then started.
"I won't keep you long," he said. "You've all earned this break. But before you go, we need to talk about next season."
Silence.
"We're in League One now," Jake continued, "which means the competition gets tougher, the expectations get higher, and the work gets harder."
Eyes locked on him, serious now.
