Rossington Make Signing Coup
30th July, 2011
After many approaches from several clubs, Rossington Main have managed to fend them all off to finally secure the re-signing of goalkeeper Lee Appleby!
In a major coup for the 'big spending' Baris NCEL Division One club, they held off the challenge of Carcroft AFC, Bentley FC and even an unusual attempt by Branton Boys Under 14s until they realised that he was 26.
Appleby said in a statement to the club's official website: "The lure of a packet of Walkers Crinkles, two Mars Bars and a bottle of Lucozade (still not fizzy) along with a plastic cup of orange at half-time and the infamous chilli and chips after the match was too much to resist."
"I am hoping to have a great season at Rosso cause they are a great bunch of lads," he continued.
