White Magic

Ben White today single handedly rescued Land Rovers from a defeat to bottom placed Provoke Evolution. Land Rovers starting line dwindled to four players as three late withdrawals saw the team struggling for numbers. "We finally drafted in our first girl when John Cao's other half dropped by to watch the match" said Land Rovers Manager Steve Hall "but they'd already both played a game so fitness was always going to be a telling factor in this one". Rovers took a while to get the combination together and went promptly 3 - 0 down. The fight back didn't look likely until a goal just before half time gave Rovers a sniff. Early in the second half Rovers pulled one back but it looked all over when Promote Evolution scored again. "Then Ben put his foot down hard on the accelerator when everyone else was dead" said Hall "and he went forward and just took them to pieces with some great goals". One of the great escapes and should leave Rovers top of the table for another week.

Let's hope Ben doesn't provoke any evolution in his post-match celebrations.

Not with those legs I suspect - he's hardly a model of manhood like my Charlie
