It's Not Cricket

Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall confirmed this morning that he didn't get up and watch the cricket semi-final this morning, as New Zealand crashed out of the World Cup. "I knew the cricket was on and had a peak at the channel for a minute or so, in which time New Zealand lost five wickets" said Hall "but otherwise I was busy watching Kaka (pictured) and Ronaldo slug it out in the Champions League". Hall said as a manager he had to keep up with as much football as he could. "If you want to be at the cutting edge of football management like myself" said Hall "you've got to watch as much football as you can on the tele". Hall said he might be able to take a few pointers from cricket. "They seem to have a better quality of sledging in cricket" said Hall "just that little bit cleverer than the sort of thing Charlie Smith used to scream out that involved various body parts".
