Official Match Thread Season 36 Round 1: Coney Island Warriors v Roys FFC @ Van Cordlandt Park

[Kennedy Parker]

Coney Island Warriors v Roys FFC
At Van Cordlandt Park

It's a new season in the Sweet Football Association with plenty of exciting stories to be told in the 36th edition of this great competition. With new personas, new rivalries, new stars to emerge.

But before we get to all the shiny new toys that can be played with. Let's take a look at the season just gone for these two teams...

S35 Recap - Coney Island Warriors

The Coney Island Warriors added league great The Filth Wizard to pair up with pantskyle and reunited the Brothers of Destruction as they looked to claim the first premiership in the club's history. They got a premiership but it was only the minor premiership, ultimately falling short in the preliminary final. They continued their dominance off the field with Tonga Bob claiming the S35 Beez Trophy and Frankston Rover made a cameo for Heritage Round.

S35 Recap - Roys FFC

The Roys FFC had an ordinary season in Season 35, falling out of finals after a trademark late season collapse. TedDougChris played a starring role in the position he plays best though and was a shining light for the Roys throughout the season.

The Off-Season - Coney Island Warriors

They welcome in rookie hotshot Ocha905 and Warriors veteran zackah.

zackah is Avon after getting out of Jail/the Roys (I mean it's the same thing really) and seeing them again at Van Cordlandt Park.

 

[pantskyle]

Yes. Then we had a good one, and now we're here.

And I am also here?

 

[spudmaster]

Yes. Then we had a good one, and now we're here.

Let's hope for something nearer last season than the one prior, at least as far and the home and away season is concerned. Eight spots, thirteen teams, we're a ~60% chance to make the finals already, before factoring the Wazza-sim-tax that is.

 

[Tonga Bob]

And I am also here?

Mate you never left.

 

[spudmaster]

And I am also here?

Mate you never left.

You were telling me he's not all there? Make up your mind!

Howdy Roys and fellow Wazzas - let's make S36 a good one.

I've been working out for months.

 

[pantskyle]

Mate you never left.

How about right?

You were telling me he's not all there? Make up your mind!

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Welcome to the Warriors Ocha905, you finally get the chance to see what this place is all about.

You too zackah.

If we recruited anybody else I apologise.

No loser talk here Spudstar. I've got gone deep into the depths of history (2010ish) to find the remarkable cheat code to life. It's known as The Secret. Visualise something hard enough and it will come true!

Eg - Here's a perfect demonstration of the Chaser's visualising a free carpark -



Works 0% of the time 100% of the time.

 

[Ocha905]

Are the Roy's imaginary too?

Such a great show! Brilliant skits, well-informed, made election years entertaining for even the most politically-indifferent viewers. A visual version of today's The Shovel. Bring it back!

 

[Reginald Perrin]

WTF? It's only Monday.

 

[Agent93]

Ugh, these guys again.

 

[Tonga Bob]

Today's specials at Tonga Bob's Taco & Tequila Bar to welcome Roy to VCP (& particularly friend Zevon):

You can imagine what they look like. I always think of TDC as a cross between Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein and Chris Farley.
