New hope ???New UK team...

[Lovetone]

sounds like a good idea but doest this mean its just a company backed group of players who are just lucky to have funding to get in at the higehst levels instead of starting at the bottom like other new formed teams?

your point being?
lucky to have funding?
from what ive seen of the roster the vast majority of the players worked from the ground up, so luck is nowt to do with it.

when you get to the level where you are selected for a squad united under a new banner with backing from some of the best in the business youll know you earned that privelege rather than just "lucked out".

(note - i have no affiliation with any of the team players or sponsors this is just my opnion)

more positive vibes. love it.

Lovetone, I'm not being pessimistic (Lord knows I have more than enough reason to be) but how on earth exactly are we gonna fukk up the Yanks?

Both pro leagues (NPPL and NXL) are locked and therefore the Brits have zero chance of playing them over there let alone 'fukk them up' as that guy Portox so inappropriately puts it ....
I can't believe he used those words considering the relative qualities of Yanks and Brits at the moment.
The NXL guys are soooo far in advance of us Brits it's embarrassing.
There is only one Euro team who even deserves to go on the field against them and that is Joy Division...and the distance between Joy and second best team in Europe, Ton Tons is once again, staggering.
We ain't gonna be fukkin anyone up for a long time and the reason is, we fukked up ourselves already, well and truly fukked.

Fair enough.

Still I think this new merging of forces is a positive thing and hopefully one more team (along with Shock and Nexus, and Tigers) to show the UK what can be acheived, even if its "only" winning a millenium or two.

best of luck to them I say, for better or worse.

how?

why?

all i hear nowaday's is how we have ruined the UK and European scene, and in all honesty i don't have a clue why? I see these threads pop up almost by the day about how we should pour money into a sole paintball committee, have one single league instead of 3/4 spread across the UK.

is it because people are only wanting money back in their pockets instead of out?


can someone briefly explain why we have "fukked" the UK and European scene, disabling us to advance to a level that we can compare with the US standard of ball?...please.

Excuse me while I try to shoehorn my spleen back inside my ribcage.......

Well, if as you say, these threads pop up almost every day, then try reading some of them and work out the answers to your questions...

the Kids in USA just want to murder people on field

Yeah but most of them want to do it when there off the field as well... say while your shopping/drinking/driving/sleeping
