You Can’t Win Trophies Without Ambition As mentioned before, Vdara brings a second lineup full of young players for when they’re playing against lower ranked squads, to give them experience for when the senior squad begins to dwindle due to retirements. For now, however, the senior squad would cont...
Early Days Well, here we go again. Another cycle of ups and downs is just starting, and what better way to start a World Cup Qualifiers campaign than by playing against the lowest seed in your group, eh? Now, most teams in this tournament would either swap out a few players or just leave their firs...
Here We, Here We, Here We Fucking Go! *”Hibsing It” is a reference to Hibernian Football Club, who have a reputation for throwing away games and/or being all-round disappointing. ”Hello, and welcome to Vai Sports 1’s coverage of the World Cup 87 Qualifiers draw! With the pots now empty and the grou...
Oh, Yes Sir! Who really is Markos Moustakakos? Some say he’s the greatest tactical genius known to man. Some say he’s a dumbass whose only talent is saving penalties. All we know is that he’s just masterminded the Vdaran national team to a 4-1 victory over Ethane. Needless to say, he was quite ecst...
Can’t Complain, Can We? Following a dramatic comeback victory over the Ceyne Isles, both tensions and optimism were high. While the fans were concerned about the amount of goals Vdara conceded, they were quite pleased that they had managed to take the victory nonetheless - and now they were up agai...
Early Signs of Trouble? Coast Stadium Dressing Room Just before the match, Moustakakos was pacing around the room. The players were busy getting their kits on and their shoelaces tied, whereas Moustakakos was suited and booted. Y’know, the usual managerial wear. White shirt, striped tie, suit jacke...
A Reunion VdarArena Training Centre, Chania It felt like it had been ages since the Vdaran squad had played together, but today was the day that everyone was back together again. Moustakakos had made it so that the entire squad had to turn up to the training centre before being getting the bus to C...

Guess Who’s Back... ...back again! We be back, tell your friends! Yarr, it be correct, we be returnin’ tae th’ quarter finals o’ th’ Cup o’ Harmony for th’ second Cup in a row. Do we think we be goin’ much further? Arrrr... not really. We be up against the mighty Sargossa, who be a very-highly rega...
Risin’ Like A Kraken OOC: Since Sylestone is yet to read my previous RPs (I think so, anyway), I’m going to put on record that “scallywags” means “players” and that “Cap’n Peg-Leg” is the name of the manager. He still uses the same name from the roster, but for the sake of this whole pirate thing, ...
Giving Up Cap’n Peg-Leg: ”Yarrr, I can’t be arsed with this shite anymore. Scuttle the ship, ya scallywags. This be a shit tournament for us, and we just need tae be waitin’ for th’ next World Cup. Tally Ho, Cup of Harmony!” At that point, the S.S. Doom N’ Gloom went out to sea, never to be seen ag...
Party Application Nation Name: Vdara Party Name: Party of Scotland (Pàirtidh na h-Alba) Party Description: A party campaigning for the independence of Scotland. Following a long period of being a fringe party from the 70s-00s, the Party of Scotland rose to prominence following the 2014 Inde...
Tings Be Only Gettin’ Better! After th’ 1-1 draw wi’ Riena, it be time for th’ S.S. Doom N’ Gloom tae hoist th’ anchor an’ set sail towards th’ Brannigan Stadium! Despite th’ scallywags feelin’ like they be hornswaggled out o’ a win, they still be in high spirits - especially wi’ all the’ grog in t...
A Barrage O’ Goals! Yarr, it be a fine day o’ ball-bootin’ here in Ethane. So far, th’ scallywags’ve played two games, an’ won both o’ them. Vdara be showin’ th’ other landlubbers in Group G that they be a swashbucklin’ bunch o’ ball-booters, an’ despite th’ eye patches an’ th’ occasional hook hand...
Yarrrrrrr! OOC: I feel like I might talk less pirate-y in the next RP, with only the players (scallywags) and manager (Cap’n Peg-Leg) talking in pirate speak. For now, however, enjoy! A lot be happenin’ since th’ World Cup. For one, we be in th’ Cup o’ Harmony. For two, we be pirates. Now, ye may b...
”We’re fucked, I tell you! FUCKED!” For the first time in this World Cup campaign, Vdaran manager Lükækš Væñøœrëñbérghüïś was well and truly pissed off. He’d watched his side get humbled by Vangaziland just two games ago, and back then he had told his players to get a grip and lose the complacency ...
Revenge: Achieved Earlier in the group stage, Vdara had drawn 4-4 with the team they were playing today, Drunk People at the Local Tavern. While they still managed to gain a point from this match, the fans were heavily displeased, as they expected an easy win. Despite that setback, many fans still ...
