Penn State Alum Lacock Joins Blues

West Mifflin Football Club Managing Director Bob Stinner is delighted to announce the signing of magnificent midget and Penn State University alumni Tyler Lacock on a free transfer. The Lisa Drive man will join fellow Clovercrestians Bob Stinner, Chris Reed, Chris Nickel, and Chad Dorney at Titan Stadium after inking a three-year deal this morning. A natural right winger, Lacock can play anywhere on the outside.

Lacock, 24, who played a key part in both the 2007 IBM League Championship and 2008 Neville Island Indoor League Championship, had an impressive scoring record in both leagues. So impressive, there is no actual record of it and in all honesty, I don't think too many give much of a shit. He has made numerous appearances for other teams and has been around the game for many years. He is a Manchester United fan. Which means he is a cunt.

If memory serves, Lacock, alongside Tony DiCenzo, anchored the mid-field of West Mifflin Travel Soccer Club side Dorney for a season. The two, however, were constantly at loggerheads and as the relationship deteriorated they both cunted off to either other sports or the classroom. The controversy allegedly stemmed from the fact that DiCenzo often wore a baseball cap to practices at the vaunted Borland Park. Everyone thought that the gesture was childish and irresponsible, especially Lacock who furiously demanded that the hat be removed. Tyler went on to graduate near the top of his class while DiCenzo...well...he's a great basketball mind that drives too fast through Clovercrest. He's overall a good chap though. Cheers to him.

Stinner said: "Although he is a short little cunt he will add depth to the midfield. Our primary problem last season was having enough players. He has iterated to me that he will be here for every training session and every matchday and that he won't let things like "spending time with mom" get in the way. It's good to know we have that."

Given the Blues' struggles with people showing up last season, the arrival of Lacock will surely provide a boost for the players. When asked about his thoughts on Lacock being brought in, Jared Pcholinski, in so many words, expressed his unbridled enthusiasm: "He's definitely playing? Sweet dude."

Lacock was unveiled to the media today and is shown below. At this time what number he will wear is an open matter. It really all comes down , strangely enough, to what want-away midfielder Steve Gauss decides to do.

When asked about his thoughts on joining WMFC he had this to say: "I'm really excited. I have had success elsewhere and I hope to continue that here. It's very good to be back on my hometown team. I have played for West Mifflin teams in the past but since Dorney could never beat Reed I realized that the team I was on sucked. I know this team played very well at the beginning of the season last campaign but a thinning squad kept it from competing at the end. I hope to help with that this season and hopefully we can bring in some silverware."

In additional transfer news, Matt Baguet still has not done anything to bring in any new players like he always says he will. Also, at a press conference at 2 PNC Plaza yesterday, Manager Bob Stinner let on that the club was targeting two more players to sign before the start of the season in May and let on that a deal for Tony Bonacorso may be near completion. The manager had this to say:

We are in talks with him. Specifically, Chris Reed is in talks with him. He needs to get me his information for his paperwork and of course a picture for his player card. I still need to speak to him so we will see.


In addition, Stinner mentioned he and the staff were considering extending offers to two players from Arsenal of Pitt's Indoor IM League, both midfield/strikers that would certainly do wonders for the team's scant depth.

Everyone at the official website of West Mifflin Football Club would like to welcome Mr Lacock to the club. You had better not suck.
