===Overview===

----
+
Quite simply, if you asked 100 NS nations to name a Starblaydi, those that could would be more than likely to name '''Simeone Di Bradini'''. Not only a personal avatar for the user behind [[User:Starblaydia|Starblaydia]], 'SDB' is quite simply the greatest Starblaydi sportsman of all time.

== Career at Club Level ==
 +
=== [[Iskara Daii]] ===
 +
Simeone Di Bradini started his football career at [[Iskara Daii]], his home-town side. Initally 'the Daii' were a semi-professional team playing in a small suburb of the Starblaydi captial city, [[Jhanna]], in residing [[Starblaydi Football League]]. As part of an excellent team, a 17 year-old Simeone led the team from the front to being one of the top-twelve in Starblaydia, part of the [[Starblaydi_Alpha_Division_Season_1|Alpha Division]]. This rise came just in time as the league was quickly restructured, breaking the 12-team league into three Divisions of six teams each.
  
===Playing Career===
+
This change did nothing to slow down the Daii, who revelled in their ability to play and beat the other five 'top' teams in Starblaydia. They [http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=6918286&postcount=512 topped the new Alpha Division] multiple times, with Simeone top-scoring for the club in every season, usually earning himself the top-scorer's position in the entire league. While at the Daii, club-mates included his brother, [[Roberto Di Bradini]] as well as other famous Starblaydi footballers [[Rodriguez Da Silva]], [[Ki-Jana Carter]], [[Rastian Salaam]], [[Jean-Pierre Durand]] and [[Darius Belizaire]].
----
+
==== Starblaydia ====
+
Having scored Starblaydia's first ever goal - in a Four-Two defeat to Europa Brittania in the 3rd [[Under-21 World Cup]], SDB never looked back, eventually scoring his Forty-Seventh and last Goal for Starblaydia in [[World Cup 20]] in a Five-One victory over [[The Belmore Family]] in his home nation of Starblaydia. He notched up 44 International Goals in 84 Appearances for the Senior side, and 3 Goals in 4 Appearances for the [[Starblaydia Under-21s|Under-21 Side]].
+
  
==== Iskara Daii====
+
Soon, however, Starblaydia's top young marksman was [http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=6924671&postcount=515 courted] by some of the top clubs in the world. Eventually it was the giants of [[The Belmore Family]]: their most-famous club, [[Alan City]], offered a jaw-dropping [[Starblaydi Credit|SC]]40,000,000 for him, something that no club could refuse. The Daii also received a striker in return, paying SC14M for Belmoron striker Alan Winters.
At the Daii he won every award going. Golden Boots, Young Player, Player and Striker of the Year by the bucketload. never mind all the Championships and Tiberius Cups. Together with his younger brother, [[Roberto Di Bradini]], he helped take Iskara Daii from amateur side to the best team in Starblaydia, before the brothers Di Bradini netted the club 60 Million credits in transfer fees to [[The Belmore Family|Belmoron]] and [[Dance 2 Revolution|Dance 2 Revolutionary]] clubs.
+
  
==== Alan City ====
+
A Source at the club said: ''"This is the highest price we could have ever dreamed of getting for Simeone. 'SDB' is at the peak of his powers, and getting a young Belmore Striker as part of the deal was another bonus. I think we've bought a player who, at twenty-two, may be better than SDB was at that age."''
After winning more League, Cup, Player-of-the-Year and Golden Boot Awards at the Starblaydi team [[Iskara Daii]], SDB switched to home of the godmods, [[Alan City]] of The Belmore Family for £40,000,000. There he won all sorts of things, all while being given the honour of wearing the #9 shirt of the legendary [[Alan Belmore]]. In his first season he was Belmoron Premier League Top Scorer, as part of a side that included [[Rikki Stone]]. But, then again, the club was bankrolled by [[Alan Belmore]] (the old President one) himself, so it was only right that they paid out taxpayers funds to purchase the most expensive players from around the globe.
+
  
 +
Simeone said: ''"I'm elated to be given the Number Nine, worn by the one and only [[Alan Belmore]], that's a true honour. Would you turn down Distefano's Number Eleven? Or the Ten worn by Maradonna or Pele? How about Thierrt Henry's Fourteen? I'm furthuring my career and giving the Daii, who invested so much into me, Forty Million Credits. Thats a helluvan honour to be priced that high."''
  
===Managerial Career===

=== [[Alan City]] ===
----
+
Though he was out of sight of the average Starblaydi, word filtered through about how well Simeone was doing. He played in a team that could well have been the greatest ever, with the best players of the time from all over the world such as [[Nick Yu]], [[Thorgeirr Axewielder]], [[Doug Freech]], [[Naoki Maeda]], [[Sasijilvenku "Sasi" Dikelesinivetisaru|Sasijilvenku Dikelesinivetisaru]] and [[Rikki Stone]].
====Kiiarana====
+
When his Contract at Alan City expired after [[World Cup 19]], SDB moved to become Player-Coach at Kiiarana City of [[Vilita]], leading them to the Stellar Division. After his swansong in World Cup 20, where he also presented the World Cup Trophy to Vilitan Captain [[Santo Kecker]], SDB took a back seat at Kiiarana to concentrate on his managerial career, while still strapping on the boots, even at 40, so show the Declasse Division how it was done. This decision paid off when his team were promoted to the [[Stellar Division]] in Seasons 15 and 17. He was even Kiiarana's top scorer with 9 goals in Season 17, as well as bagging 9 in Season 19 where he was the VLeague's top foreign Striker at the age of 42.

====Starblaydia Under-21s====
+
The club was bankrolled by President [[Alan Belmore]] himself, so it was no large suprise in that they paid out taxpayers' funds to purchase the most expensive players from around the globe. In their first season the side named 'team of the [[Godmod#Godmode_in_sports_roleplaying|godmods]]' [http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7025359&postcount=558 won the league], with Simeone out-scoring the rest of the league in the [http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7083087&postcount=564 second season] as Alan City won the Belmoron Premier League title yet again.
 +
 
 +
After seasons and seasons of winning the Belmoron Premier League, the Godmod side slowly broke up, with the world never to see one of it's like again. Simeone left The Belmore Family as a very-rich veteran footballer, looking for a place to ply his trade and finish his playing career. He found it in [[Vilita]].
 +
 
 +
=== [[Kiiarana City]] ===
 +
When his Contract at Alan City expired after [[World Cup 19]], Simeone moved back to the [[Atlantian Oceania]] region, just a geographical stone's-throw away from his home nation, and moved to [[Kiiarana City]] in [[Vilita]]. He became Player-Coach at [[Kiiarana]] City of [[Vilita]], , replacing [[Alexander Östling]], leading them to the [[Stellar Division]].

He was even Kiiarana's top scorer with 9 goals in Season 17, as well as bagging 9 in Season 19 where he was the VLeague's top foreign Striker at the grand old age of 42.

Simeone Di Bradini (also known as "SDB") is known as the most famous Starblaydi sportsman of all time. Renowned in his playing days as one of the best footballers in the world, Simeone's other qualities were recognised by the World Cup Committee as they voted him in as their President.

Career at Club Level

Iskara Daii

Simeone Di Bradini started his football career at Iskara Daii, his home-town side. Initally 'the Daii' were a semi-professional team playing in a small suburb of the Starblaydi captial city, Jhanna, in residing Starblaydi Football League. As part of an excellent team, a 17 year-old Simeone led the team from the front to being one of the top-twelve in Starblaydia, part of the Alpha Division. This rise came just in time as the league was quickly restructured, breaking the 12-team league into three Divisions of six teams each.

This change did nothing to slow down the Daii, who revelled in their ability to play and beat the other five 'top' teams in Starblaydia. They topped the new Alpha Division multiple times, with Simeone top-scoring for the club in every season, usually earning himself the top-scorer's position in the entire league. While at the Daii, club-mates included his brother, Roberto Di Bradini as well as other famous Starblaydi footballers Rodriguez Da Silva, Ki-Jana Carter, Rastian Salaam, Jean-Pierre Durand and Darius Belizaire.

Soon, however, Starblaydia's top young marksman was courted by some of the top clubs in the world. Eventually it was the giants of The Belmore Family: their most-famous club, Alan City, offered a jaw-dropping SC40,000,000 for him, something that no club could refuse. The Daii also received a striker in return, paying SC14M for Belmoron striker Alan Winters.

A Source at the club said: "This is the highest price we could have ever dreamed of getting for Simeone. 'SDB' is at the peak of his powers, and getting a young Belmore Striker as part of the deal was another bonus. I think we've bought a player who, at twenty-two, may be better than SDB was at that age."

Simeone said: "I'm elated to be given the Number Nine, worn by the one and only Alan Belmore, that's a true honour. Would you turn down Distefano's Number Eleven? Or the Ten worn by Maradonna or Pele? How about Thierrt Henry's Fourteen? I'm furthuring my career and giving the Daii, who invested so much into me, Forty Million Credits. Thats a helluvan honour to be priced that high."

Alan City

Though he was out of sight of the average Starblaydi, word filtered through about how well Simeone was doing. He played in a team that could well have been the greatest ever, with the best players of the time from all over the world such as Nick Yu, Thorgeirr Axewielder, Doug Freech, Naoki Maeda, Sasijilvenku Dikelesinivetisaru and Rikki Stone.

The club was bankrolled by President Alan Belmore himself, so it was no large suprise in that they paid out taxpayers' funds to purchase the most expensive players from around the globe. In their first season the side named 'team of the godmods' won the league, with Simeone out-scoring the rest of the league in the second season as Alan City won the Belmoron Premier League title yet again.

After seasons and seasons of winning the Belmoron Premier League, the Godmod side slowly broke up, with the world never to see one of it's like again. Simeone left The Belmore Family as a very-rich veteran footballer, looking for a place to ply his trade and finish his playing career. He found it in Vilita.

Kiiarana City

When his Contract at Alan City expired after World Cup 19, Simeone moved back to the Atlantian Oceania region, just a geographical stone's-throw away from his home nation, and moved to Kiiarana City in Vilita. He became Player-Coach at Kiiarana City of Vilita, , replacing Alexander Östling, leading them to the Stellar Division.

After his swansong in World Cup 20, where he also presented the World Cup Trophy to Vilitan Captain Santo Kecker, SDB took a back seat at Kiiarana to concentrate on his managerial career, while still strapping on the boots, even at 40, so show the Declasse Division how it was done. This decision paid off when his team were promoted to the Stellar Division in Seasons 15 and 17. He was even Kiiarana's top scorer with 9 goals in Season 17, as well as bagging 9 in Season 19 where he was the VLeague's top foreign Striker at the grand old age of 42. He also had a talent for unearthing young players, bringing Malaino Mumamba and Antonis Siazzu through the club's ranks and into the Vilitan national team.

The Legend

Having been selected for five different World Cups, Simeone Di Bradini was a fixture of World Cup Finals for twenty years, scoring five times in the world's premier Sporting Tournament. He also went to an Under-21 World Cup, two Cups of Harmony and five other Tournaments, including a Nine-Goal haul in AOCAF5, where Starblaydia were the defending Champions. His club career is almost unparalleled too, in both Player and Coach in Vilita and Starblaydia, arguably the two greatest leagues in the world. Subsequently became a World Cup Hall of Famer before being elected as the President of the World Cup Committee.

Not a bad little career for a kid from Iskara.
