Official Match Thread Season 34 Round 4- Coney Island Warriors vs Gold City Royals at Van Cordlandt Park

[MWPP]

OVERVIEW
The SFA has decided to embrace expansion even further by collaborating with the Wordle community as part of the latest recruitment drive. Why? Afterall, bragging rights, "strategy", late night "training sessions" and good old luck are features that are shared with our Sim. Besides, Wordle fans are even nerdier than SFA fans and Qooty has exactly 5 letters in it.

PREVIEW
This week the last-placed Warriors are hosting the inconsistent Royals at Van Cordlandt Park. On the weekend the Warriors were within a goal of the Dragons at each of the earlier breaks and did their best to keep themselves in the game with accuracy, but still slumped to 0-3 with a disappointing 10 point loss. . On the other hand the Royals began strongly against the Furies and just outran/outclassed them in a high-scoring, 18 point win. The Warriors will be desperate to notch their first win and move from the bottom of the ladder, while the 2-1 Royals will be looking to improve their shaky % and.

LAST TIME THEY MET
On a warm day at The Golden Throne back on Round 13, the Royals stormed to a 4 goal quarter-time lead on the back of an 8 goal quarter, but then conceded 7 goals in the second as the Warriors found another gear, making it a 6 point ballgame at half time. The game remained high-scoring and close for the rest of the match, with the Warriors holding on after a late BEEG goal to finish with a crucial 4 point win.

PLAYERS TO WATCH
Last time these sides met, Royals veterans nahnah (90 DT) GreyCrow (93 DT) and Marlowe (90 DT) were brilliant early in the game whilst spookism (76 DT, 6 goals) had a day out. Ultimately BEEG (84 DT, 7 goals) was unstoppable and worked closely with skipper Tonga Bob (81 DT, 3 goals) and the talented FootyGuy13 (80 DT, 1 goal) to lead the comeback and secure the win for the Warriors.

On the weekend former skipper TheInjuryFactory (76 DT) and fellow veteran pantskyle (73 DT) did their best to keep their team in it, whilst FurTheWin (5 goals) was the only player from either team to kick more than 3 goals. At the same time, CakeEater (131 DT, 2 goals) was best on ground, combining well with brahj (125 DT) , krakouers (119 DT, 2 goals) , Ulahoopski (104 DT) and nahnah (101 DT) to secure the win for the Royals.

With every week we lose, it becomes more and more embarrassing to be the team that loses to us eventually. I'm looking forward to it being the Royals

We have form, we lost to the furies by 80 in the final round last season and I think it cost them a spoon

The only royals I'm interested in have a biscuit base, a layer of jam, a generous helping of marshmallow and all coated in chocolate.

This has probably been discussed at length, but is there a reason for the really shitty name? "Gold City Royals" must be some in-joke I'm missing

to be distinguished from the in-breeding among the Royals which no one is missing.

Have you seen the state of your clubs logo let alone the team name

Equal parts distinguished and intimidating.

Oh please, you're one republic referendum vote away from ceasing to exist!

Well may we say "God save the Queen", because nothing will save the Gold City Royals.

Why am I voting for a shitty Pop band?*

Oh and evening Warriors, how are we all this week? Everyone excited for this race to the bottom?

They'll have to change schools again if they do.

At least our Team Badge looks like our playing kit, and what a glorious jumper (and logo) it is.

It’s a reference to a movie for old people.

No, wait…

My guess for Qordle is "FluKy" as in everything about the Sim, every win against us, the chance the OP is funny, the chance it will rain simulated snow instead of blueberries.

In other news there's no way in the Simulated World we are conversing in that we lose 4 in a row, the sim just wouldn't do that.

If it does we'll probably quit and get Rid of the bye... but we won't, bring on Owen4 futhermuckers
