29.5.97. Filtered to Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs.
THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO WAS WON ON THE PLAYING-FIELDS OF ETON.


WE MAY NOT BE ETON NOR EVEN HARROW. WE MAY NOT EVEN BE IN LORD'S. OUR DUKE OF WELLINGTON MAY BE ORANGE. AT LEAST WE WILL NOT HAVE TO STEP OFF BRITISH SOIL.



TO THE GRYFFINDORS:

WE ARE GRYFFINDORS. WE DO NOT NEED PETTY CHEATS AND FUTILE SCHEMES TO WIN. WE DO NOT NEED TO WAIT FOR THEIR BACKS TO BE TURNED OR FOR THEM TO BE HELPING A FALLEN FRIEND. WE WILL PRACTICE AND OUR AIM WILL BE DEADLY. WE WILL CRUSH THEM. WE WILL BE SUCH AN INTIMIDATING AND DEADLY FORCE THAT RAVENCLAW AND SLYTHERIN WILL SIMPLY PREFER TO WET THEMSELVES AND FALL IN A FAINT THAN TO BE HIT WITH BALLS. WE ARE DOWN THREE STUDENTS BUT THAT IS HARDLY A PROBLEM.

WHY? YOU MAY BE ASKING YOUR COMPUTER SCREENS.

BECAUSE ALL OF US WILL PARTICIPATE AND ALL OF US WILL WIN.



TO THE HUFFLEPUFFS:

TOO LONG HAVE YOU MERELY HAD TO SAY THAT YOU DID YOUR BEST TO WIN A HOUSE CUP. TOO LONG HAVE YOU NOT FELT ANY SENSE OF VICTORY OTHER THAN THROUGH SCHOOL TEAM SPORTS. TOO LONG HAVE YOU BEEN MOCKED AND MADE AN EXAMPLE OF.

YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO CHANGE HISTORY. HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS! ON 8 JUNE, HELP US WRITE HISTORY.

Yes I am. I have never been the captain of anything sports related before. It is a shame that this sport has roots in America.

I think 'orange' doesn't doesn't describe him half as well as vivid does...but the rest is pretty spot on.

I considered team shirts but red and yellow make orange.

I don't really think that Hufflepuffs have been mocked and made an example of, have we?
