|align="center" | Always at the top, but for no good reason. Impatient and obviously new to the team, but occasionally has something to contribute, even if known for storming off to the lockers if he doesn't get his way, right away. | |align="center" | Always at the top, but for no good reason.

Revision as of 00:03, 12 June 2017
Sub | Starter | Silver | Gold | Captain |
Vice-Captain |
Goalkeepers | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
1 | Darién Gap | The legend from Panama, an impassable expanse despite efforts to penetrate him since 1971. "The Gap's closed!" | ||||||||
12 | Noobius Expedia | Rarely used, except by idiots. His wicked, if unintended, Free Kick against /sci/ earned Noobius a place in the 2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup All-Stars squad, and a stint as Player of the Week. | ||||||||
23 | Light Packer | He may only have brought two shirts and one pair of socks to last him the entire tournament, but at least he didn't have to pay for extra baggage. |
Left Backs | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
2 | Boris Transsiberyan | From Moscow to Vladivostok, Ulaanbaatar to Pyongyang, Boris has the tenacity and drive to score from a long distance, if he's not too drunk from all the vodka he freely shares. Also local chair of the players' union. | ||||||||
15 | Dougie Canuckflag | Born in a small hamlet on the border with Saskatchewan and North Dakota, Dougie is rumoured to nonetheless be American by passport, but is seldom seen without a Canadian flag patched on his luggage and frequent declarations of how much he loves the Queen, maple syrup and ice hockey. Just in case. However, there is no mystery to the quiet ferocity with which he plays. |
Right Backs | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
8 | VICEguy | A "journalist" in his day-job, Shane Smith has seen it all: from the sex dens and dictatorships of the Far East to the bloody civil wars of post-colonial Africa. Expect to be similarly mesmerised by his skills on the football pitch. | ||||||||
16 | Sickof Murrica | From the plains of Nebraska, Murrica is a down-home corn-fed country boy. And he can be found anywhere that is not the damnable USA. When not contemplating the merits of Tibetan Buddhism, Scandinavian social welfare or New Zealand immigration details, he can be found at the nearest Starbucks or McDonalds, planning his next great move in the World's sport that none of his stupid countrymen understand. |
Defensive Midfielders | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
42 | Amsterdam Stonerbro | Loves to frequent "coffeeshops" when not hashing his opponents. He will constantly ask you which is the best to visit, as if he had forgotten he just asked the day before. Don't let the glazed expression and shaggy hair fool you, he is one of the Dutch fields finest buds, with eyes only for the green! | ||||||||
17 | Neckbeard Teefle | Teefle has spent years in the Asian leagues, teaching young Koreans, Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese how to pass a ball and chant the most offensive football songs in English. While his teaching credentials may be questionable, his skills on the field are no joke. Teefle is notable for advocating chastity, though he insists he could have any woman he wants, as "lusty thoughts detract from thrusty shots". | ||||||||
18 | Squat Toilet | The bane of many-a-visitor to parts of the world with a non-Western bathroom culture, opponents of Squat Toilet will no doubt find him difficult to avoid, confusing and even terrifying. |
Central Midfielders | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
6 | Karl Pilkington | One of Britain's finest talents, and one of the team's most loved and bemused members. Known to shake opponents out of their comfort zone, and get abroad of even the trickiest challenges. Many have taken him for a simple fool, but Karl always gets the last laugh on the football pitch. | ||||||||
9 | Luke Skyscanner | All in the blink of an eye, Skyscanner never makes a move without first scrutinizing all possible ways to get to the goal in the most effective quickest manner, even if it means foregoing a direct shot by himself, as he is always keen to assist his fellow travellers. | ||||||||
19 | Sven Scandiboo | "Did you guys know Norway is one of the most developed, least religious nations on earth? Isn't that awesome?" The only thing Sven cherishes more than fermented fish and his absence of any social skills or warmth, is his equitable sharing of the ball and sense of justice and fair play. | ||||||||
20 | Desperate Weeaboo | Only has $600 to his name and five days free in April, but goddamn he will dream of his true homeland and ignore anyone who questions his rationale.
Known as Grorious "Nip" Nippon until a mix-up with the /int/ player of the same name lead to events only described by the team's coaching staff as "regrettable" and "diplomatically testing". |
Attacking Midfielders | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
7 | Superpornowat Farangbang | Flexible in all meanings of the word, whether vaulting over stiff opposition or penetrating through tight holes. Some rumours say this Thai hero might be a woman, and is actually a foreigner. But with the face of an angel, and composition rigid as an iron rod, balls rarely pass Farangbang without a sweaty story to tell. A frequent companion to /trv/ star player Sex Tourist both on and off the pitch. | ||||||||
11 | Real Traveller | Always keen to clarify he is "a traveller, not a tourist", Real Traveller sees himself above plebeian package holidays or cruises. His disdain for commercial tourism stretches so far he even made his own way to the 2014 4chan Winter Cup, rather than using the more mainstream team bus. | ||||||||
21 | Gapyah Backpacker | One of the younger members of the team, fresh from his trip to Burma where he stayed at an intensive 12-week jungle training camp, funded by his parents and the Myanamar correctional services. He is untested for tournaments, but his father is a corporate team sponsor. Gapyah plans to become a barrister or a Tory politician once he completes his studies at Oxford. Known for his subtle yet biting remarks on the field to opponents of middle-class origins, naturally he ignores working-class peasants. |
Centre Forwards | ||||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||||
69 | Sex Tourist | /trv/'s star man and top scorer returns to his homeland after several seasons in the Thai leagues. A shifty player, one of /trv/'s most requested for interviews, good around the box and at poking it into tight spaces. | ||||||||
10 | Couchsurfer Rapist | Brought into the team for the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup, after impressing with his thrust and determination. Team practice has shown he will pounce at the tiniest glimmer of vulnerability, and leave any opposing defence spread wide open and feeling particularly violated. |
Former Players | ||||||||
N° | Name | Picture | Description | |||||
16 | Fückse Ibiza | One of the Bundesliga's most prominent members, coaxed out of his love of being surrounded only by his own countrymen no matter where he goes -- which is always to Spanish islands. Notoriously cranky around those verdammt Inselaffen. He will reserve a spot for the ball in the opponents net promptly at 7:30 in the morning and will not relent until it is there. Was found lying unconcious in a pool of vomit outside Pacha shortly after the 2013 4chan Summer Cup and quietly dropped from the squad. | ||||||
17 | Chris McCandless | An icon of /trv/. A loner, and considered too self-righteous by his team-mates, "Supertramp" was nevertheless quick, fearless and has endless stamina, even if sometimes to his detriment. Hated berries and being told what to do. McCandless went his own way, as usual, after the 2013 4chan Summer Cup Friendlies, joining new team /out/, before fittingly disappearing altogether from the Cup. | ||||||
23 | >Bumping on /trv/ | File:BumpingTRV.jpg | Always at the top, but for no good reason. Impatient and obviously new to the team, but occasionally has something to contribute, even if known for storming off to the lockers if he doesn't get his way, right away. | |||||
41 | Wiki Dreamin' | Not much can be said of Wiki Dreamin', 3rd choice goalkeeper until he was dropped following the 2013 4chan Winter Cup having not played a single game in goal for the team, only coming on as a centre forward against /sci/ in Autumn 2012 so others would not be fatigued. Spent far too long dreaming of epic journeys to foreign fields on Wikitravel and not enough time training. |
