Little Interest

Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall today admitted the recent retirement of Team Wellington striker Graeme Little from eleven a side football had again renewed speculation that Zephyr Rovers would be chasing his signature for the indoor game. "You know these Scotsman like to play with each other" said Hall "and I know that our Chairman knows Graeme so once a few weeks go by and he gets sick of watching TV, we think he'll see that playing indoor and scoring twenty goals a game for Rovers is an attractive proposition". Hall admitted Rovers were looking for a big name signing. "Yes we'd like to sign a big name" said Hall "at the moment we only have eight letter names so if we can't find anyone else I'm changing Matty's name to Cantwellski because everyone has to sound eastern European these days to be a big name". Hall said he'd be talking to the Chairman about using his influence to persuade Little of the wisdom of playing for Rovers. "We're prepared look at buying Bagpipes and a kilt if it will persuade him" said Hall "as long as Amazing Grace doesn't become our theme song".
