BURROWS TURNS DOWN MADRID

James Steven Barry Burrows has shunned the advances of Real Madrid who are after his services for next season. He announced late last night that he will be committing his long term future to Castlehurst.

The tall but agile all rounder was the subject of a 52.5 pence offer from the Spanish giants. After a long talk with his family and his super model girlfriend, he decided that his heart belongs here at Castlehurst.

Fabio Cappello was said to be devastated at the break down in negotiations. He said last night "Although we are very sad at James' decision not to move, we respect his decision. Castlehurst are a massive club and one I admire very much. I just hope that they will still accept my entry to their fantasy league where there are fantastic prizes to be won and it is only £5 per team."

It is thought that Cappello will now turn his attentions to his second choice signing, Kaka of Brazil and AC Milan.

The above story is entirely made up. Any references to Real Madrid and Fabio Cappelo are entirely fictional. By the same token any references to James burrows having a super model girlfriend are also false and of a fictional nature.
