oh right, i got tagged in something here

 

[arro73]

Well I still have my training wheels on - The Wonders reputation is tough to live up to. Your rookies have it easy

Easy? I was literally expected to be the Messiah on my debut. Top that yo.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand you mustn't have lived up to the hype by the sounds of it. Cracked under the pressure?

 

[Golumless]

Ok royals flogs... i've decided to consult the helix fossil to see if you'll win this week and the results are in:

You might as well forfeit now...

On the contrary we lost the game, but because of me, the game was re-simmed and we won. Soooooooo yeah you could say I lived up to the hype.

Don't remind me, was robbed of my first 100 exie point game

Let's be honest, what sort of person would rather an Omastar over a Kabutops? I don't think we can trust it.

 

[Brown Bottle]

I won my first Werewolf today. It's a sign of things to come.

Lord Helix is the true savior of the pokemon world, i'd trust it.

 

[mike123]

The Royals are undefeated against the Wonders with Marlowe as captain.

There is a first time for everything...

 

[Marlowe]

There is a first time for everything...

So you admit it: we will play finals. Eventually...

 

[HaroLad]

I was literally expected to be the Messiah on my debut.

The Royals are in desperate need of a saviour.

 

[Golumless]

So you admit it: we will play finals. Eventually...

I guess if you sim enough seasons, the royals will eventually luck out and finally make it.

I'd like to think i'd be around for that mark, probably would be over the 1k games mark by then as well.

That's the mirror you're looking into there Codym2723.

That doesn't seem very mathematical.

 

[3KZ is Football]

The Royals are in desperate need of a saviour.

That would be me. Three games for the Royals and 3KZ is Football has turned their fortunes around. The statistics don't lie.

 

[HaroLad]

Yeah but I'll tell you who does lie.

Juggs. Didn't he say he had found his spiritual home at the Bears? What a flog.

 

[Marlowe]

Yeah but I'll tell you who does lie.

Juggs. Didn't he say he had found his spiritual home at the Bears? What a flog.

Hmm, Vegas is his still spiritual home. However, in a much more grounded sense, Gold City is his physical home.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I won my first Werewolf today. It's a sign of things to come.

If you'd like to remain accustomed to winning continue with werewolf, because if recent history in the SFA is any indication - first the bears, now the Wonders - finishing last is becoming a habit.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

I'm a gun poster, as proven by my 2nd in the rumble a couple of months back, and yet probably well outside the best 5 posters at our club. Pretty big evidence that we hugely relevant because we are a posting powerhouse.

But I'll expand on why that is a stupid comment. Firstly the Bombers changed their name because they couldn't attract posters to their club with the old one, an issue the Royals have never had. Juggalo isn't polluting the SFA at all, and if you think that I invite you to visit a Warriors match thread and re-access your opinion. Finally the Bombers are dying because Gee Dub was/is still a rubbish captain and dug a once great club into the whole it's in now. Juggalo is purely a casualty of those events.

A gun poster lol.

You're more like a peashooter.

But don't worry mate, I won't be arguing with you that you're outside 5 posters of your club.

And, I dunno. The fact that Juggalo has gone to every single club, with no success, and left them with either an on-field or off-field problem, then it's, you know, his fault.

Fool me once, well I'm a Demon. Fool me twice, the Bombers dun goofed. Fool me three times, well pantskyle will take anyone. But fool me fourth? Well, only a Royal could do that.

And if it stinks like a Juggalo and provides no success in at least 9 seasons as a Juggalo, then it's probably a Juggalo that's causing all the problems.

Woop woop!

 

[TheFreshBanana]

I'll give you two blokes a couple of facts that are sure to bring you down from your high horse.

Both of you are currently leading the Wonders through their worst period in their history, particularly yourself TheFreshBanana. Since becoming captain your club has gone from an immovable premiership force to one who is now vying for their first wooden spoon in the clubs history.

Under your leadership the Wonders have a 5-15 record which even the Royals have managed to better in their first 20 games in the competition, and also throughout any 20 game period in their short and less than impressive past history. You have claims to being the sole reason this club has begun it's downward spiral when you couple in your off-field shortcomings last season. Granted ClarkeM has done a power of work behind the scenes to give you some form of credibility for season 19, signing up some excellent recruits, but before you even begin to start criticising Juggalo Balla or anyone else for that matter, you need to take a look in your own backyard and repair any cracks before you look into that mirror perched above your cauldron, which so far you've managed to overlook, preferring to imitate the 'kettles' large mouth instead.

You're not fit to polish Juggalo Balla's bootlaces, nor anyone else in Royals colors for that matter. You've tried valiantly to be well received and well liked by spending every second of every day on this forum trying to get in the strides of others for some adulation, but the fact you're still yet to be rated highly speaks volumes of your performance.

After Sunday, your winning percentage as captain of 23% will see a major headline appear in the Royals scroll. 'The Queen conferred an honorary knighthood on TheFreshBanana as her Royals finally lose the mantra of leagues worst SFA side.'

That's true. My win rate as captain has been pretty mediocre, I can't deny that.

But, is this to say, 1 season is enough to gauge one's ability to lead his team to a premiership?

I'm not entirely convinced just yet, so I'll give it another season, and see how we go. It's early days yet.

But if it is, look at it this way.

1 season as TheFreshBanana not as captain - 1 season/1 premiership - 100% strike rate
2 seasons as TheFreshBanana not as captain - 2 seasons/1 premiership - 50% strike rate
3 seasons as TheFreshBanana not as captain - 3 seasons/2 premiership - 66.66% strike rate

5 seasons as Juggalo Balla not as captain - 5 seasons/0 premierships - 0% strike rate

I'll leave it at that. I don't know who else is worth mentioning at the Royals that isn't captain.

Also, I was semi-active last season, didn't even bother voting in your MVP trophy either because of it, and I still made it into the top 20.

Juggalo Balla you missed a spot while kissing my boots.

 

[Papa Juggs]

The Wonders win premierships /thread.

Yeah you can rest on past achievements if you like. If that's how you feel just retire. No wonder the passion is gone.

As I have told many people before you. How can we rest on our future achievements when we don't know how good we are going to be?

 

[Marlowe]

I guess if you sim enough seasons, the royals will eventually luck out and finally make it.

I'd like to think i'd be around for that mark, probably would be over the 1k games mark by then as well.

At the current rate the fixture is declining, that would make you roughly 203 years old. I guess my great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandchildren will do what I couldn't. I hope one of them is here to laugh in your face for me when we finally play a final.
