Paris Vs. Berlin (Destiny's Vengeance)


Credit: Bone E. Vicious
The 30th of July should be celebrated as Bad-Luck Day! Half of the Paris All-Stars showed up this morning (Friday) at the airport to fly to Berlin one day in advance. The Strike is back with a vengeance: Air France cancelled their flights… to Berlin ONLY!! “Isn’t it Ironic, don’t you think?”

Destiny is against us. Just as if it was punishing us for having dared trying to make it happen against its will no matter what. We had even found an alternate solution for bench managing… Now, the game is cancelled for good, as too many girls cannot get a replacement flight on time.

Paris Vs. Berlin (Part.2)

Guess what?!
 
The most head-banging situation...
This is all just a (very) bad joke: Air France is finally *not* striking this weekend!!
After a quick consultation, we came to a final decision given that:
  1. The venue is still available
  2. The girls still have their plane tickets
"Let's go and see!"

Only Fifi Lafoe was far-sighted enough to take the ticket-insurance and she got refunded. She's the only one who won't be coming... which I think is quite sad because she's leaving in September and it was going to be our last bout with her :(

12 girls should make it to Berlin, which is the minimum number for an official WFTDA game.

We still have to solve the problem of the missing bench coach -- Yep: Brute et Peste should have been the one in charge but she got stolen her wallet with her one and only ID paper in it 10 days ago... Too short to get a new one in time to take the plane!

Man, this is Rock'n Roll...!

Paris Vs. Berlin *ABORTED*

Although we were impatiently waiting to play against the Berlin BombShells, we have just cancelled our last game of the season...

Honestly: What were the chances to be a massive strike on the same day?!

Yesterday, the news announced that there was going to be a concerted strike, confirmed and signed by the Air France unions, for July 29, 30 and 31 (the game being on Saturday 30.)
The information was confirmed by our undercover agents, Absolut Vermine and Meryl_Strip-Her.
 
We came to the conclusion that it was safer and wiser to cancel and postpone the game to another date around September-October... *sad*
