Generation IV

Generation IV is the current generation of PEMUL regulated football. It has produced more players, teams, competitions and matches than all of three other generations combined and is regarded by critics as being the most succesful and entertaining.

History

PEMUL rules football had been experiencing a golden age during Generation II with wildly popular teams and players regularly playing out entertaining fixtures. However, a disastrous cataclysm had destroyed the entire generation, leaving nothing more than a handful of players wandering around some smoking ruins.

Authorities quickly scrambled to establish a new generation, but in their haste the end result was regarded to be a catastrophic failure.

Following a short break in play, Generation IV was established and several prominent players and administators vowed to introduce new and exciting developments. Several teams were quickly assembled and favourites from former generations such as King Fog and Da Goals announced they would be playing in upcoming competitions.

Da Goals gave an interview to the assembled press, stating: "Yeah, I used the time codes to give the apocalypse the slip...I'm back baby and I'll be scoring loads of goooaaaaals!"

Several new creations such as Generic Sh*tter and Wallace Coathanger proved to be great hits with the fans and levels of entusiasm were quickly rising

Dawn of Competitive Play

Some showcase friendlies were organised followed by a new edition of the Open Cup. Some of the newly established teams such as Athletico Rejectico and Dynamo Average Joe proved to be very popular amongst players and fans. With teams being established at a quicker rate than had been expected, the decision was made to form a league to provide teams with regular competitive play. Ten teams joined the PEMUL as founders and the league has run ever since.
