| Episode 1 : football and farms | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Rupert Lowe is the tight money loving chairman of Southampton FC. Here is a typical day in his life | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Harry Redknapp walks into Lowes office. He twitches a few times and then begins to talk. Harry: "Look I took the bus here today but there aren't any around right now, can I ave a fiver to get a taxi?" Lowe: "Oh dear Harry you like everyone else seems to overestimate the amount of money this football club has. I have always run Southampton FC on a reasonable budget so we don't go bankrupt." Harry: "Come on I only need �5 to get home, I'll pay you back tommorow." Lowe: "You see running a football club is like running a farm. You put all the animals in cheap cages, sell them off and get rich. No, no that's not what I meant. But I know that the fact I'm a farmer makes me qualified to be a chairman somehow. Just look at these graphs:" |

| Harry: "I bet you would kill your Mum for a 5p coin." Lowe: "Who told you about that?" Harry Redknapp just twitches a few more times and keeps moving his head from side to side. Harry: "I guess I'll just walk." Lowe: "Of course I could give you the money if you say I'm the best chairman in the whole world and let me buy back that Delgaldo guy again. I made Gordon run round in circles and shout 'Lowe's my ho' Forgot to give him that contract though. I like Delgaldo cos he had a funny name, Delgaldo" Rupert laughs hysterically. Harry scribbles something with some crayons on a a bit of paper. Harry: "I've got you an early birthday card" he walks out. Lowe looks at the paper. |

| Lowe searches the paper. Lowe: "Damn where's my birthday money?" He opens his fan mail and smiles because he thinks everyone loves him. Unfortunately he didn't realise the fan-mail was from a pompey fan. It read: "Dear Lowe thankyou for making the Saints crap. From a sk8." Lowe is bored so he decides to phone up his PA. |

| Lowe: "Please send me up some gold bars, I want to make a castle out of them." PA: "There's a Sven-Goran Eriksson down here. He wants to talk about Crouch." Lowe: "Tell him to send the cheque for him in the post." PA: "But he doesn't want to buy.." Lowe: "Shhhh my money's talking." He holds the �5 note to his ear. |
