Rossiter Rejects "Persil" Rovers Tag

Land Rovers Chairman Dean Rossiter (pictured) has this morning rejected a name change to Persil Rovers. "It all sounds to clean cut to me" said Rossiter "and we were going to find it hard to get Charlie Smith whiter than white" .

Land Rovers Manager Steve Hall said the Persil Rovers concept sucked the big one. "Steven Gerrard has apparently just become the face of Persil" said Hall "but frankly we don't seem to have that clean cut image ever since Chris Riddle made a habit of regularly being sent off". Hall said it would in any event be a difficult task to wash the current shirts until they turned white. "We'd just get them white and someone would wipe their nose on them, so we see the advantages of staying with green" said Hall
