Roberts Injured by Centipede

Pete Roberts was injured today in an outdoor match and will be out for weeks. "Apparently Pete was doing one of his step overs and tripped over a centipede" said Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall "reports directly from his team mates said he squealed like a pig for several minutes until the referee finally noticed him and got him to go and scream back in the changing rooms". Roberts is famous for his step over, a move that has frequently even sent him the wrong way. "I thing I saw the step over work once but it was largely because the wind was blowing hard and the ball accidentally went in the direction that Pete went in" said Hall "I guess you get it right by chance every now and then". Hall said his own speciality the drag back was of limited use as an indoor goalkeeper because "no one is allowed inside my penalty area".
