After the last two Phoenix press conferences which were pretty much
unmatched in the history of NZ football, it's about time for
another one.
So, what will be in this week's conference?
Terry Serepisos says he has had enough of Australian commentator
Robbie Slater's hatred of New Zealand. He challenges him to an arm
wrestle next time the Phoenix play away. If Slater loses, he has to
stop bagging New Zealand football.
"I reckon I'm good for it", Serepisos told the press. "I've been
practising against the boys in the team, and I can take out
everyone except Ross Aloisi. He's a hard b**tard.
Actually, I twisted Tim Brown's wrist, so it's not looking likely
that he's going to start this week either ..."
Unable to break into the starting lineup, Cleberson has started a
samba dance school in Wellington.
Tony Pignata reveals he has been hard at work making a real-life
Phoenix to be the team's mascot.
"I had to kill twelve pigeons to get to this point, but it's been
worth it". The real Phoenix used to be a kea.
However, on it's unveiling, it flies into the advertising banner,
setting it on fire. The bird panics, and flies out of the room. It
swoops over the stadium, before heading west to Australia, never to
be seen again.
The Phoenix offer a trial position to any Lions or Hurricanes
players willing to switch codes. They have 15 offers.
Jose Mourinho is revealed as guest coach of the LA Galaxy for their
Australasian tour.
'Forget the defensive stuff', he says, 'We're gonna make mincemeat
of those Kiwis'.
Daniel has decided to brush up on his diving by volunteering as a
part-time lifeguard at Freyberg Pool.
Scores of Wellington women realise, "gosh, it's been ages since
I've been swimming, I really should go again." However, on reaching
the pool, they realise that, "actually, I can't swim that well at
all, really, in fact I might be drowning, hey, could somebody help
me, how about that young man over there"
Daniel is soon overwhelmed by the demand and has to resign.
The Wellington City council reveals that all future spending must
be approved by a poll on the Yellow Fever website. Councils first
action is to triple the alcohol supply to Wellington.
It is revealed that Tim Brown has caught Yellow Fever. No, he
hasn't joined the fan club, he has caught the disease, and will
have to be isolated for the rest of the season.
Mark Paston announces a sideline business selling sheepskin seat
covers. "Just the thing for those wannabe players left out in the
cold while their teammates grab all the action".
