It's July 2014 and, at St. George's Park, the futuristic new home of the England national football teams, a small group of coaches are completing their UEFA Pro Licence, the highest coaching level.
Ryan Giggs is one and another is Micky Mellon, the current Shrewsbury Town manager. The two men will be on opposite benches on Monday night at the New Meadow for an FA Cup fifth round tie between Shrewsbury Town and Manchester United.
The Premier League club have lost their last two games and, while Shrewsbury are a third-tier side, the chances of a shock are increased when so many of United's players are out injured and confidence is low.
