Don't Throw In The Chair Mick

Land Rovers Manager Steve Hall said that it was good to see Team Wellington boss Mick Waite passionate about his football this afternoon at Newtown Stadium. Mick Waite hurled a chair big wrestling style onto the grass verge and the feeling was he wasn't in full agreement with several decisions by the linesmen. "I thought Mick was practising to do three rounds with the The Bushwhackers, he certainly has a physique for pro-wrestling".

Hall said Waite lost the plot when a linesmen disallowed what would have been the Team Wellington winning goal. "The linesmen seemed to be overawed that former Leeds United player Danny Hay was playing in their defence" said Hall "so whenever Danny yelled off-side he gave it even if there wasn't a Team Wellington player in the opposition half". The game finished 1 - 1 and featured a superbly taken Danny Hay own goal. "It's too early in the season for Mick to be throwing in either the chair or the towel" said Hall "we'll offer him whatever support he needs".

Hall said he was impressed again with Wellington striker Peter Halstead (pictured above). "Peter is our kind of player and I'm sure he'd rapidly adapt to the indoor game" said Hall "and the boys would have a whip round to pay his seven dollar indoor match fee". Hall said Rovers would consider buying Halstead a beer or two as an inducement".
