Bardera Benched for Good?

Word out of the United camp this week is certainly causing some shock within the Quidditch world! Rumor has it that starting Chaser Nicole Bardera has been put on an indefinite suspension due to issues involving breach of contract. The player, recently engaged to former teammate Martin Boot, announced that she was pregnant this past May, effectively putting her out of action for at least the first few months of the new season.

What could this sudden suspension mean? The Tattler's sources speculate that her breach of contract may have to do her new bundle of joy, but with so many recent Quidditch moms out there, could the United management really be so behind the times?

And what's more, we hear that Bardera isn't taking this news sitting down. Our photographers spotted her recently speaking with management of several teams, including her old friends with the Harpies. One has to but wonder just how her United teammates feel about this!

....turn to page 43 for all the details!

Well I'd at least like to hear it. This is bullshit.

First match, we get on the pitch and get in position, and then do nothing, because that's exactly what the management's doing for Nick.

Well, they can't terminate all of us -- can they?

They could probably find something. But we're not called the United because we let one of our teammates get fucked over like this. I don't think any of us have actually had a planned pregnancy, it's not fair that since we're not the ones having to carry around the kid that we get away with it.

I don't care. Let's do it. What are they going to do? Fire us all and let a bunch of rookies play the whole season, lose any chance of the cup from the get-go?

At this rate, it sounds like they'd be willing. I'm thinking the worst they could do was suspend us a game---but would they really be willing to put us two matches behind?

That's at least four hundred point, there's no way.

Well if they're already willing to lose the cup, there's no use in playing anyway, so you know. Fuck that. I'm all for it.

I want some nice shots of you lounging in the hoops, all right? Maybe I'll take a nap. Hmm.

Hell yeah, just leave it to me. Maybe I'll make paper footballs and stash them in my robes and start a game through the right hoop. The rest of you are free to join in.

All right, all right. Your tiny footballs have convinced me, Ian.

You up for betting galleons? I'm a very skilled paper football player, Brand.

How much money are you willing to lose, Bell?

If I can't play the bloody game, I might as well win at something.

Good man. We keep this between us, no telling Nick so they can't think she was involved.

So basically you're suggesting a sit-in? Or whatever the fuck one would call it when you're hovering however many feet off the ground.

A hovering sit-in, I suppose. Imagine the photos they'd get of Bell taking a nap in one of the hoops. Priceless.

Huh.

You know I'd never throw a game, since I don't have it in me...but if you think it's going to get a message to the fucks in management, than I'm in.

Nick is practically family. I'm not going to let those sons of bitches suspend her for this, of all things.

And you all know it's killing me to suggest this, and I only would if I thought this was the only way to get our point across. God I hate being a Gryffindor sometimes--

We're going to have to tear apart every team for the rest of the season.

Of course. Looking forward to it.
