UF Quick Throw: Pig Aids Sweeps Blackburn

Blackburn Rovers have 5 cases of swine flu at the club. While being coy, manager Sam Allardyce confirmed that the virus was making its way around the Ewood Park club.

“We have had one more case this morning, one more player and there are a couple of staff. It’s definitely swine flu – you’ve speculated on the names and I’ll leave it at that.” – Big Sam

It’s pretty well known that two of the players concerned are David Dunn and Christopher Samba. Allardyce had previously stated that the pair ‘had a virus’. The two members of staff and the third player are still a mystery.

Blackburn reported their cases of the disease to the Premier League on Friday but the game against Chelsea still went ahead. If there is any justice in the world, the entire Chelsea team will come down with the bug, all at the same time. Blackburn will play Peterborough in the Carling Cup tomorrow night.
