Can we just be a Basketball team instead?

[Royal]

It's clear that the whole "football" thing isn't working out at all. So lets swerve it, the sport is fine but realistically we're all here for the club. Euroleague basketball doesn't even have a British team. We have a brand spanking new stadium being build that would dwarf their entire stupid division and we get to go and play in Europe as the default, never having to interact with a kopite or a manc again. We have a ready made massive fanbase, which is the norm in Euroleague (a lot of the teams are just footy teams, Barca, Munich, Real, all put a team out there)

Everton Tigers were a thing once, but they were stupid enough to rebrand as "Mersey Tigers" and then get kicked out of the BBL for uhhh, actually the BBL never explained why they kicked the Mersey Tigers out. But the Euroleague are considerably less tinpot than the BBL were, and basketball is probably fun idk I've like hardly watched it in my life.

Help me realise this dream. We can do it. We're well bigger than Zalgiris ffs.

bro if you're not smart enough to appreciate the intricacies of waiting 5 days to draw with a country you've never heard of, don't put it on me

As an American I look forward to the opportunity to inform the British that, being British, they have no understanding of basketball whatsoever pat pat pat.

Imagine the scenes when we go our 6th basketball game in a row without scoring.

Why not? We've certainly got a few baskets in the squad.

the extent of my basketball knowledge is that the taller your team the better, and Lebron is a stinking kopite so MJ was the GOAT

Have you not seen our recruitment? If we became a basketball team, we'd go out and sign the seven dwarves.

BASKETBALL IS SHIZZ TRUST ME. I employed a mascot to wear this suit. I had to put him in it and get him out. The worst most boring nights of my life. Money was OK for me. Not so great for the sweaty lad in this suit lol
