Heritage Round - Season 36

The year is 1941 2001.

Mobbenfuhrer has just finished creating a fantasy football league on an old reconditioned Tamagotchi and his site on lexicon.net was dial up interwebbing away with the promise that "It's assured, you won't be disappointed”.

36 seasons of disappointment entertainment later, and at least we can take solace in the knowledge that to quote the great man… It isn't really happening!!!!!

And so, 22 years later and 36 seasons on from that fateful disclaimer... here we are celebrating over two decades of our beloved league that has certainly left all of us equal parts elated & disappointed at some point, and yet we can rest easy in the knowledge that it isn't really happening and my tears over our premiership heartache at the Warriors are just figments of my overly fervent and feverish imagination!

Ladies and Gentlemen … Welcome to Heritage Round, as we celebrate 36 seasons of joyful misery!


Coney Island Warriors v Gold City Royals

Each club will be wearing a special commissioned Heritage Kit this weekend as we celebrate Heritage Round. Here's each club's kit for this week's match.

Hi Wazzas

Hi TheInjuryFactory you campaigner

 

[Ocha905]

Best OP ever! That whore tree guernsey looks exactly like Buscemi's type.

Also, hey there Royals. First team I'll faced twice and I couldn't be more pleased. Let's have a fun week celebrating our Sweet histories however long, short, monumental, insignificant etc.

Did you engage the soundtrack? I hope you engaged the soundtrack.

It would be a perfect fit in my favourite fictional place- the Cityside Bowls Club.

Can't give it higher praise than that!

 

[GreyCrow]

They don't make music like that anymore

Boogie woogie bugle boy from company B would be better than In The Mood

I did have to get my ears checked!

The Andrews Sisters actually recorded a version of 'In The Mood' too GreyCrow

 

[spudmaster]

Heya Royals! We meet again. Congrats on your win in nahnah s 200th on the weekend. Nice to see not all milestone matches are things of dread.

Hiya Crowey

Brilliant OP Tiffy, top shelf stuff. Hopefully the sim can put in half as much effort this week

 

[spudmaster]

The Andrews Sisters actually recorded a version of 'In The Mood' too GreyCrow

And it's on the 80's Jive Bunny album under the Swing the Mood track. Catchy tune

~2am thought: wonder if the sisters are still in the mood?

Funny you should mention that - after coughing up the first 82 (yes, that's not a typo) points on the weekend to the OOBs, The Donald has scheduled us all for emergency medicals sometime this week. Thankfully, being yet another home game, we can likely come to some kind of arrangement with the local doc when if the results are substandard.

What. I’ve got to assume the position again for medicals? A man could get used to this level of intrusion.

 

[Dinsdale]

Good morning. Great start to the thread TIF, something positive and uplifting amongst the pure simhousery of last round.

But you know how I love the Sim and its perfectly coded implementation of randomness, I am looking forward to a 10 goal win this week whoever we're playing

It's heritage round Royals and we get to reminisce about bygone eras with our friends at the Warriors. Perhaps we will be lucky enough to have some of our former greats grace us with their presence this week.

Hello Wazzas. I can already tell this is going to be a great week. The feeling of the thread when I walking in the door this morning had a distinctly pleasant smell.

 

[pantskyle]

Hooray the bland Royals.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Heritage, checking in.

 

[Mofra]

Just checking, which Royals have inspired this mascot/name?
Prince Andrew or Meagan Markle?

Well being an aggressive male lion it's clearly Meagan Markle.
