Rovers Elevator Horror

The Rovers football team today were trapped in a lift for fifteen minutes on the way back from their Division 7 match against Pad Soccer.

"It was bad enough being stuck in a lift with five other sweaty footballers" confessed Hall "but there was a Middlesbrough supporter stuck in there with us which made it all the more difficult" Hall said he thought of a few conversation starters like "You're doing ok in Europe" but with Boro dropping down the premiership standings no one was quite sure what to say. "I think he was pleased to get out" mused Hall "I mean it can't be a nice feeling locked in a small space with both a Pompey and Saints supporter, they're always likely to start a ruckus in a tight spot".

Earlier Rovers had been in superb form with a stunning 13 - 1 win over Pad. "It looked like a tight one at 1 - 1 but we buckled down and did the business"assessed Hall. The Manager reported that the improved passing was a key to the better performance "Hussey and Riddle really worked hard at playing off each other today and the reward was six goals apiece". Hall was happy with Smith's defensive prowess and thought Fatu and new signing McIntosh did well at closing down Pads options.

"And what can I say about my goalkeeping" smirked the injured Hall "I led from the back".
