Official Match Thread Season 24, Round 3 - Gumbies FFC vs Las Vegas Bears at The House of Gumby

[spookism]

Ugh.
Definitely not match of the round.
Two games in, and both these team sit outside of the eight after filing to pick up any points. Both teams will be hoping not to s**t the bed and get a win to keep their finals chances alive.

Things to Watch

The Gumbies have gone through their third rebuild in as many seasons. Have Noobz0r and Golumless brought enough cultural change to fix up the mess that Quivorir and Willo_ left behind?

Will SM sulk about something in this thread? The signs do point towards yes.

The Matera92 led Bears have been lacking off the field, but if they can match the amount of heart shown to make a game of it last week after trailing by 7 goals, then they will be okay.

Tip

Declare any previous misdemeanors to your current boss and also the Gumbies by a goal

 

[SM]

Oh god, the Bears.. Only team worse than the Wonders. Well, except maybe the Dragons..

Opposition leader setting a positive tone for the week. It should be a corker.

I think you've missed the point of this league if you're crying about me not having positive words for your shambles of a club.

 

[Quivorir]

What a s**t OP.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Finally! Home at last! Took us long enough!

I cannot wait to see what our ground looks like in preparation for the big day.

Maybe for once we're going to see some 'stop-start' qooty for once. We need more tackles!

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Oh, to continue on with the negativity, Doctor Gero can't sim the match! We have to suffer for a 8pm simming by... RU_!

Nooooooo...

Personally I'm here to have a laugh, but thanks for the heads up that the Geelong team will be following this Sad Man in a miserable "whos club is more of a shambles" pissing match.
A good thing plasticine is liquid proof. As for me, I'll put on my rain coat.

SM here is the Pokey of the Gumbies... and I'm really hoping that someone has actually seen Gumby to get any of this.

Given his nature, SMelty is definitely more like the Prickle of the Gumbies

Oho!

Do I dare ask who Goo is? And it must be asked... if you think Prickle and Goo will get up to much alone? (Lol, Soccer Board jokes.)

Players love projecting their own insecurities in their banter. Just like haydo loves his "irrevelant captain" calls, of course the first post from the Gumbies is a "shambles club" call.

Was his post wrong though?

I dunno why the * or how the * that happens. :S

 

[AngryRanga]

Not particularly, I'll take being the 6th ranked team out of 8. But I also don't really care about club status and reputation.

You cared enough to get your knickers in a knot when it was brought up though...

I was just playing amateur psychologist so I can hit my 10 post quota and leave

Wow... low standards. I thought 20 posts was the commonly accepted benchmark, but the Bears take it to a new low.

We are trailblazers, pushing the boundaries of what is acceptable in the league. Rumour has it that Ava is going to post 6000 times this week, I hope that hits your benchmark.

I was going to call bull on that, but then I remember who is likely to post up the sim, key word being 'post'... so, carry on then.

Good to see you still around Broken.

I get the feeling that this is quickest to the bottom based on comments already made?

I'd like to get a win and get off the bottom if you don't mind.

I'd like to win a flag and ride off into the sunset.

But then I might get groundhog day and have to relive S23 & 4.

I'd like that too, but for someone like me, I need to start small. Get a win, string some together, and then onto finals.
