The Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors

A profound take on yesterday’s news from our Russian correspondent



The Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors

And for my next trick…


I’m employed manager.
At present I’m the manager of the project starting in August and finishing in May.
My long-term contract is finishing also in May.
The project – which cost more than £200 million – must produce some results.
I’m talking about these results as "We know people want more from us and we are ready to give more, but success is to win the league."

The same last five projects were not successful under my leadership.
Meanwhile, on the eve of new one I declare that my contract will be prolonged for sure.
It is not my employer who informs the people that I’m trusted and offered new contract.
It is me who announcing that a new contract is a question of small details.
And that "I believe my commitment to the club has nothing do with the speculation of how the season would go, because that would be unfair."

The question is – where am I working?

The answer is in the title.
