'You just don't get it do you PM? I have an FMS LEGEND!'

'Flippers, mate, your becoming delirious. I think we better move on to the midfield before you blow a gasket'

'I just don't think you're giving my guys enough credit PM, just because they don't fit into your snobbery and elitism.'

'Oh for heavens sake Flip, you're sounding like Charnley.'

Flip looked confused. 'Who?'

'Never mind, just some looney. Anyway, lets move on. Midfield! Ok on the right of the midfield trio, Wimb the Barman & benny. Ok so Wimb is basically a Llama as fare as we know, but I'm ok with that, he won't mess around and shirk the tackle and thats important. benny is an FMS icon, his name is synonymous with quality and he's become something of a cult. Class through and through!

Middle of the middle, Spav &[/b]SaC[/b]. Whilst Spav is Australian and seems to have a rather perverse liking for CM5 or whatever the hell its called, he doesn't pull punches, and SaC is the kind of player you want pulling the strings, quiet, unassuming but lethal!

Left side, Chesterfan2 & Harlequin. Latest newcomer of the year, highly talent and our Danish Warlord. Just face it Flippers, you're fecked and I haven't even begun to unleash my forward line!

'Yeah yeah PM, very impressive. But so many has beens. I mean benny, pfft, none of the new crowd even remember him. And no-one ever even knew who Harlequin was.'

'Stop procrastinating. Lets see what goods you have and then you can see if gloating is actually something you can do. I doubt it.'

'Right midfield, Caleyjag & Pickles. Caleyjag is a Mod! erm thats it.

Middle mid, Bagpuss &'

But before Flippers could continue, PM7 had once more fallen over on the floor laughing. 'This is really cracking me up Flippers, no wonder you've got no chance of catching my awards total you're messed up in the head. Whats the idea then, to have Bagpuss terrify the opposition or to make them throw up or are you hoping they'll all fall about laughing at the total lack of any footballing skills?'

'PM I didn't interupt you, so please, let me get on, everyone on the forum is reading this and you're just making yourself look silly by laughing at people. Ok so, where was I? Yes middle of the midfield, Bagpuss & Donners.

Flippers paused to see if his rival would saying anything but PM was too busy trying to stiffle the laughs, 'OK so the left of the midfield, Jim65 & Jack o'Sullivan'

Flippers ended and waited for the reponse, but none was forthcoming.

'Well?'

Still PM stood saying nothing.

'Oh come on. Is your silence admitting that my squad is so much better then yours?'

And with that PM7 walked off, tears of laughter streaming down his face. This was going to be such a bloody walkover.

'I might' Flippers began in a tentative mood for once, 'might just admit that your squad is, so far, perhaps, marginally better than mine. But before you butt in and gloat, I have to say I think the forward lines will win the day and here I have to say I think I have you. In fact, I'm so damn sure that I'm listing my players first and then I'll be the one to sit back and laugh at you!'

Peacemaker7 noncholontly said nothing and didn't even flinch when it became abundantly clear he couldn't actually spell noncholont. After all, there is no FMS award for spelling.

'Right wingers' Flippers began proudly, 'Blanklook & Jack South, left wingers Educated Hick &Abe Lenstra, and finally the strikers, Flipsix3, in otherwords the glorious ME, and as back up to the great me, Silverfox. And to complete the squad of 25 we were allowed, I've added Mavericktango, binny and finally but not least, Andrew Downing'

PM7 stood in silence, not even laughing, not even smiling.

'Oh come on PM you have to be impressed with that? Silverfox ffs he created FMS!'

'Whatever. Anyway now you've finished introducing the losing team, is it ok for me to introduce the winners? After all its my team most of the readers are going to want to know about.'

'You keep telling yourself that'

'Right wingers, WLKRAS & Ell_G, left wingers Peacemaker7 & Glamdring and the central strikers HD & Attjen. My three 'extras' are displaced_seagul, King Jeff & Dixie Flatline. Now Flippers, tell me that isn't an impressive 25 man squad?'

But for once, Flipsix3 was totally speechless.

Ok preliminaries out the way, this is essentially an FMS team story. Or rather, two FMS teams story. Or two FMS teams stories. Or two..... but fcuk that.

Running Swedish leagues only, with England, Scotland, Spain top level on View Only, for no particular reason.

I've mainly chosen FMS regulars/former greats for my own squad, not so regulars/former no so greats on Flippers with the odd exception here and there but I'll let you work it out yourself.

There is also a little extra added bonus, both sides have been assigned an 'extra' nationality with the idea being that they win the World Cup together. But you'll have to wait and see whats what with that!

I think thats all. Except, please remember to vote for this story at the next awards.

Thanks.

Interesting PM, very interesting :thup:

So i'm a 'not so regular' eh? Yeah well, fair call I suppose. I always preferred North Svealand over East Svealand anyways!

wow central striker. Obviously me and HD will destroy all comers. 20 goals a piece this first season is my bet.

It was pretty amazing. They were all seventeen again, and even Bagpuss could actually walk a little bit. But they soon realised that was a mistake when he fell over.

Bobbev was dancing around the room, still clutching his zimmer before he was finally persuaded to let it go. Unlike the pussy, Bob didn't fall over.

'I can walk! I can walk again, oh I'm so happy, thank you Jesus, its a miracle!'

Because both sides were in different sections of the Swedish 2nd Division, Flippers hit upon a great idea. 'Lets have an FMS Cup. My team v yours, home and away. Lets see what your guys are really up to.'

'Well I dunno Flippers. It's early days, the boys are still boys and the management need time to sort it out'

'Chicken?'

And so it was arranged, the FMS Cup would be battled for on an annual basis, the winners would recieve the plaudits they deserved - plus £10 to share - and the losers would be castrated. No I don't mean castrated, I mean erm, ah hell castrated will do.

Ingi Danielsson was delighted to have such a young squad to work with. He, along with his coaches, entered a dressing room full of noise and joviality as Bobbev continued prancing around. Suddenly the whole squad shut up in the presence of four of their own greats.

'Its good to see such high spirits' Ingi told his men, 'Now if we can turn that enthusiasm into football we will be doing well. Lets get down to business.'

'Wait a wee minute boss' Peacemaker7 interjected, 'I have one more thing to tell you all'

There was a pregnant pause, and then someone gave birth.

'Now as you know, I told you we would all have the opportunity to play in the World Cup together and I've even managed to get Mr Danielsson assigned as manager of our chosen nation team.'

There was a huge buzz of excitement.

'Now if someone could kill that wasp, I;ll hand out these passports. Don't lose them, you'll need them when you play for your new country.'

PM7 passed round an envelope to every player that gave them what they needed to play for their new country and as each player excitedly opened their envelope, there came over the dressing a hushed, almost unbelieving silence. And then it was HD who broke it - it would be HD of course - 'Erm this says Andorra?'

'Thats right' PM7 nodded proudly, 'We will all be lining up for Andorra, isn't that wonderful?'

Oooh I have another computer generated alter ego!

I have peeved off Peacemaker quite severely in the past, so I hate to think what sort of prima donna my character will be?

However it turns out, it'll be fun to read!
