La Republica propaganda

I thought I would give us a good old-fashioned Motivational Poster.

Ah! Good old Vladimir Ilyich! The way forward is to the left, apparently.

In fact, you've reminded me of something, what with old Vlad and me being Internationalists!

La Republica is currently flying the British flag, the Jack, but of course we are a multi-national organisation, so which nationality's flag should we show? I don't mind changing it once in a while to celebrate the spirit of international unity and cross-cultural accord that La Republica del FISO epitomises.

I know we have members from Singapore, Australia, the US of A and Ireland - any others? Post your country of origin below and I'll celebrate our diversity as the season progresses.

Are you sure you're not telling a wee porky, there, ams? That's a very Scottish name you have for an East Timorian. Cool if you are, like, but I goota ask. :)

Yikes, Thomas, that's an awfully targetish looking graphic of Raleigh. I reckon we should clear out before whoever-it-is pulls the trigger...

thought i'd google 'la republica' for a laugh and found that we're not alone :shock: ;
http://www.larepublica.com/ and
http://www.larepublica.net/

and then if you 'google image' us you can get;
http://planicie-heroica.weblog.com.pt/a ... ublica.jpg
(maybe not at work or the public library)
which is fairly accurate i thought ... a bunch of chaps milling around for the nearly unobtainable justice of it all.

Pats on the back all around the Boardroom today as La Pub celebrates its best gameweek ever!
Totaling 82 points for the week, we were 7,522nd for the week and shot up over 49,000 places to 71,571st overall - our highest placing since GW 17.
Let's hope this signals an upturn in our fortunes and a strong finish to the season!

Viva La Republica!

Well, it's been success after success for the lads for week after week now! :D

This GW sees us at 23,539, a mere 29 positions below our Gameweek 3 status - and gawd knows how many managers have joined since then!
So, in effect, we are in our second highest ever ranking with just two gameweeks to go.
Well done all. Let's finish on a higher note still! We could still make the top 10,000!

Viva! Viva! Viva!
