TNS IN A RUSH TO SIGN UP LEGEND
By Steve Hunter
Total Network Solutions are aiming to try and pull off one of the
biggest shocks of all time when they face Liverpool in the Champions
League and to help them out they are trying to tempt an Anfield legend
to put his scoring boots on once again.
Liverpool legend Ian Rush might be at the age of 43 but as he showed in
the Tsunami charity match at Anfield last season he has lost none of his
eye for goal and looked really sharp.
TNS managing director Mike Harris is a close friend of Rush and he is
hoping to lure him out of retirement for this match.
Harris said: "Ian's a big friend of mine. He opened our 500-seater stand
four years ago and helped coach our strikers before we played Manchester
City in the UEFA Cup two years ago.
"I'm sure we'll be talking soon and when we do I'll ask him to put his
boots back on. The sight of Ian Rush on the bench against his former
club would give the side a massive lift."
Meanwhile, speaking before the invitation from Harris to put on his
boots once again, Rush welcomed the draw and said it will be a great
occasion.
Rush said: "I've helped TNS out by training their strikers and I was a
non-executive director at the club for a spell.
"It's a great draw for a club of their size and I wish them well. If
you're going to play Liverpool then this is the time to do it. But I
don't anticipate too many problems for Liverpool."
