Rugby Town's David Staff was not only a star performer for Valley at the weekend but the winger also appeared on Sky One's Gladiators TV show, winning through to the next round.

	Staffy's training to compete on Sky One's Gladiators TV Show certainly seems to be paying off with 2 goals in 2 since his return to Valley.

David, 29, recently rejoined Rugby after spending a small amount of time out of the game to compete on the hit TV show which is making a comeback on Sky One.

He competed in four events in the first round - Gauntlet, Powerball, Hang Tough and Suspension Bridge - where he knocked the Gladiator (8 stone heavier) off the bridge, before winning on the legendary Eliminator by a big margin.

Staffy has become something of a fans' favourite since initially joining Rugby on loan from Nuneaton in March 2007. The former Boston United & King's Lynn midfielder then made the move to Butlin Road permanent for the 07/08 season and was consistently one of Rugby's best player.

Things didn't quite go to plan under the managership of Rod Brown at Valley and David joined Brackley for the start of this season before he won through to the TV stage of Gladiators and needed to take some time out of the game.

Since returning, David has notched two goals in two games, including the winning free-kick in the 4-3 win over Hitchin.

Don't forget to catch Staffy in the next round on Sky One on Sundays from 6-7pm.
