Hussey No Hustler

Eddie Hussie confirmed tonight that reports that he was a shady Irish Hustler were all a huge misunderstanding. Hussie confirmed he had not in fact received any offers from Hollywood to appear in a remake of the The Sting. "I like a flutter like the next man" said Hussey "but seriously this stereotype that the Irish are somehow always involved in the shady dealings is almost totally unfounded". Hussey said there was nothing wrong with a game or two of Black Jack or Poker, providing the stakes were high enough and he had a look at the cards an hour before the game.

Land Rovers Manager Steve Hall said gambling was not allowed on the team bus "We don't have a bus" said Hall "we don't even have a bike". Rovers have been cleared of any wrong-doing previously in relatiion to corruption allegations and Hall said he was disgusted that the media was trying to drag the clubs good name through the mud again. "We don't even have mud in indoor football, but frankly if we did we'd be heartily sick of being dragged through it" said Hall.
