It’s just physics mate

Oh I thought it might've been something they taught you at the Academy

Will this club change result in re-brand of Ned_Flanders
I'd love to see Ned as an uppity private school boy type putting the masses in their place.

How would one know such a thing?

Having worked in Aged Care, sometimes there is no other explanation that makes any sense.

Following on from the resounding success* of the Fighing Furies Next Generation Flogademy, I have been retained to be Head of House of the Ophidian Academy, which will be responsible for the development and reprogramming of the coming generations of Oldboys.

My contempt for rookies and use of the disciplinary techniques of the Second Reich see me uniquely placed to develop an army of qooty super-soldiers the likes of which the metropolis of Sweet has ever seen.

Yes, starting to note a change of language as well.

I reckon it will be great.

Welcome to the Ophidian Old Boys FFC as we move forward with expansion S34 and the future of Qootball. Being part of the Ophidian Old Boys is being part of something special. Ophidian Old Boy's is unlike any qooty establishment you have experienced. It is a confederation of rookie school, campus departments and qooty facilities and is the first collegiate Fantasy Football Club to have ever entered the competition.​

OPHIDIAN CAMPUS LOCATION​

Spotswood​

Spotswood is a suburb of Sweet municipality that is located in a sunken region on the far south western corner surrounded by cliffs. Spotswood nearest neighboring suburb is Waverley with the Waverley Oval ground being situated to the east of its location. The area is bordered by natural bushland on the south and west with magnificent snow plains views to the north (Mt Buller is further north). One of the unique tourist attractions for the area are large caverns dotted around where past digs have been undertaken in the search for troll fossils.​

HOME GROUND​

Spotswood Oval​

Spotswood Oval is nestled comfortable in a gorge and is a welcoming, fit for purpose qootball facility that supports the Old Boy's FFC strategic priorities of establishing themselves as an elite qootball program. Whilst our facility is an absolutely cutting edge, start of the art facility, there is an expectation of continued growth in the Ophidian Old Boys organisation. So it has been designed with two key factors in mind. The best long-term outcomes are achieved by designing facilities in ways that enable them to be flexible, adaptable and able to be re-invented to cater for changing needs. The design has accommodated the high possibility of future expansion. The facility design and layout promotes safe and optimal flexibility and functionality to accommodate concurrent use of the facility for different activities and events. This includes the design of secondary areas such as carpark, spectator viewing areas, reception/foyer areas, toilets, cafe, kitchen, operational areas and equipment/storage rooms. Nothing has been left to chance, and no expense spared. The qooty stadium has a capacity of over 2,000 people, making it the largest stadium in the Sweet FA. The field is 165 m (541 ft) long and 130 m (430 ft) wide and is a multi-purpose facility able to hold not only qooty events but ideal for hosting major cultural events such as concerts and outdoor stage productions.​

CLUB HOUSE
The Sir Aldus Haydovian Pavilion
When guests and visiting teams arrive they will be hosted in the exclusive Sir Aldus Haydovian Pavilion, a magnificent space with spectacular views of Spotswood Park. This is the place where the Sweet FA qooty elite can escape the strains of life and relax well out of sight of the unwashed riff-raff roaming the sweet streets.

ROOKIE PROGRAM​

Ophidian Old Boys FFC rookies share in each other’s joys, successes and disappointments. They are challenged to appreciate the strengths and individuality of others as they begin to establish their own personal qoals and visions for the future. Enrolment in the Ophidian Old Boys rookie program provides aspiring qooty players with an education of the highest standard in combination with accommodation in a caring, well equipped environment.​

Ophidian Old Boys FFC rookies will live on the Spotswood Suburb campus full time and will find Ophidian Old Boys is a home away from home. Rookies occupy Flanders Residence, of which Nedrick Belvedere Flanders is Head of House. Each rookie has their own space containing a bed. A rookie attends qooty training each day and on weeknights they can attend match threads, have free time or join supervised SFA group chats. On weekends rookies will enjoy an exciting variety of organised activities such as up hill rowing, Werewolf, Fencing and on Sunday's the match itself.​

Head of residence is responsible for rookies wellbeing and support, and liaise closely with qooty coaches and SFA staff. The Head of House is the first point of contact for any issues concerning Ophidian Old Boys FFC rookies.​

Old Boys reminds me of Newell’s. The “Lepers” have a great uniform, an awesome ground (the “Colossus”), and a great fan base.

0 for 235? bit harsh comparing him to an English cricket team

Not sure he is that good mate !!

 

[PMBangers]

Yeah why can't he just pre-form an opinion and clutch it tightly to his chest throughout the ages regardless any new data presented like the good book requires! You gotta BELIEVE!!!!

Mobbs you troglodyte, TDC has done exactly this with the view AGAINST expansion, he's been flip flopping on what prerequisites he wants you guys to meet

Just to paraphrase what TDC said : Shut up nobody cares what you think.

 

[Agent93]

Does anyone else find haydo's continual obsession with snakes in team branding rather odd?

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

 

[kdavva]

This is great and all, but have you considered what you’ll do the Sweet Croquet Club are using the playing fields and daddy’s too busy in the House of Lords to come kick them off?

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Does anyone else find haydo's continual obsession with snakes in team branding rather odd?

Ever since he met that snake Coach during the "I quit" drama he's never been the same.

 

[Ned_Flanders]

Does anyone else find haydo's continual obsession with snakes in team branding rather odd?

Personally I find his insistence of powerstancing to the national anthem each morning rather odd, but to each their own

He basically slips right on and off now. Actually, that gif is reminiscent.

 

[Agent93]

Don't lol at me Mobbs. It's ****ing weird man. haydo's ****ing weird. I bet he decorates his house in serpentine flair, and cuddles up to his slithery pets at night, all the while making kissy faces at them.

Ugh, gross.

 

[Mobbs]

Is that a Sirius question?

There is only one true Sirius.
