    Summary

    "There was a reason he always included his newspaper at the end of his name. People should be identifying Trent with the Birmingham Mail, with journalistic rigor and sarcastic questions, not with locker room smiles. Not with left wing politics. Not with affairs with football players, whose evident straightness could be explained away with a fantasy of tragic closeting.

    "But a boy could dream."

    Trent Crimm has already lived a long and checkered life as a reporter, but when he meets an inexperienced coach called Ted Lasso, he breaks every single one of his own rules.

    Summary

    The unexpected sound of a door opening behind him, though quiet, startles him out of it. He jumps, eyes flying open, and turns around to see who’s entered. It’s Ted. Of course it’s Ted. It’ll always be Ted, Trent thinks as they make eye contact.

    Ted’s got his green backpack on, holding Keeley’s pink gift bag in one hand. The sight of him like that — packed and ready to depart — makes the hollow feeling claw at Trent’s ribcage. Sharp nails and a fearsome strength. For a moment, they simply look at one another across the press room.

    “Hey, Sport,” Ted says eventually. And his tone is the softest it's been since he broke the Kansas news a week prior.

    Trent grips the side of his manuscript, tight. “Hello, Ted,” he replies.

    Summary

    Everyone who knows anything about women’s football knows Roy Kent. She’s one of those ubiquitous names in their game, among the likes of Marta, Rapinoe, Sinclair, Scott. For as long as Jamie can remember, she’s looked up to Kent. When Manchester City first offered Jamie a spot in their academy, she put all of her focus into training to play the 8. She wanted to be just like Roy Kent.

    The problem with Roy Kent that Jamie doesn't figure out until she turns twenty and goes on loan to AFC Richmond, two years after Kent made the transfer there, is that Kent is a massive fucking cunt.

    Summary

    “I gotta show you somethin’, honey. You’ve never seen my high school pictures, right?” It’s a true statement. Trent has never seen a photo of Ted from before college—he hasn’t even seen baby pictures. Ted doesn’t readily procure those photos, nor does he just show them out of the blue. It is one of the things Ted kept to himself—and Trent didn’t pry.

    In which: Ted takes Trent to a Beavers' High School volleyball game to watch Henry, and reveals some of his past along the way.
