Smith Demands Bigger Say in Team

Charles “Charlie” Smith’s fame from his three hundred and fifty metre goal appears to have gone to his head as he has demanded a bigger role in team selection and tactics. Smith known for his ardent support of Pompey, has suggested that the Rovers employ the tactics that have bought Portsmouth some recent success.

“We need to play the long ball game” said Smith “and I’ve found this oval ball in the shop that is much longer than the standard ball”. Team boss Steve Hall said last night that Smith had lost his marbles after the adulation from team supporters over his nine hundred metre goal. A whip round was being organised this afternoon for a new set of marbles and Hall was adamant that one lucky toe punt didn’t make a season.

“I’ve got a lot of time for the lad” said Hall “but we’re looking to build a team here and Charlies Prima Donna act is not helping morale”. Smith was heard muttering he would do his talking on the field.
