HC Gary McNey commented..... "This is a great signing for the team, even more so after the loss of 2007 QB Jim Adams through a recurring injury. Sam on paper looks to be an excellent acquisition to our team and with guys like American WR Dave Pasnik and Scottish WR Mark Squire will along with the rest of the Trojans WR will be a headache for any defence we come up against this year." "This also means I can concentrate on calling the offence instead of being playing and doing the OC job at the same time" "Sam is up next weekend for practice and will suit up for his first game for the Trojans against the Yorkshire Rams a home on the 11th May" |

Trojans QB Sam McKee commented on signing for the Trojans..... "My HC contacted me about the Trojans advert so I contacted the Trojans HC and talked at length with their American WR Dave Pasnik at the Kirkcaldy Bulls tournament last weekend and was impressed with what he said about the team" "I have been looking around for teams to play for but have been tied up playing for Mildenhall Mayhem Flag Team, and as my wife loves Scotland so we jumped at the chance for me to play for the Trojans in Scotland and hopefully get the chance to see Scotland." |

When asked why he picked the Trojans over a team more local and not the other end of the country, Sam commented..... "Other than Richell loving Scotland I wanted to play for a stellar and well organised team, and it's awesome what the Trojans have done over the last couple of years, even more so when you consider they are a new team" "I will find out on the 4th what the Trojans are all about, I'm confident they will live up to my expectations and I only hope I can help them achieve their goal and reach another Britbowl Final" |
