Pink Nightmare

History
The Pink Nightmare were founded in 2010 by the then Thunderbirds manager Millard Fosstentraitor to provide some competition for his team. The team brought in young, upstart manager Yuri Zarus, who has been with the club ever since. After struggling mightily in their debut season, Zarus filed an appeal to the NSL Board of Directors, citing a large gap in capital between the Pink Nightmare and the other teams in the NSL. The NSL Board agreed to give the Pink Nightmare a grant of $20 million, to help kickstart the club. The Pink Nightmare invested this wisely, prioritizing stadium, staff, and player upgrades.

Colours and badge
The Pink Nightmare have always worn pink as their home jersey color and black as their away jersey color. Prior to the inception of the NSL League in 2013, the team wore white for their third jersey colors, before changing to a teal color in the summer of 2013.

The Pink Nightmare crest consists of a soccer ball surrounded by pink wings, with the words "Pink Nightmare" inscribed beneath it.

Stadium
Cline Avenue is the joint seventh oldest, as well as the the third largest, stadium in the NSL, boasting a seating capacity of 81,000.

Rivalries
The Pink Nightmare have developed a rivalry with the Manticores, after defeating the latter in a tense 2-1 win in the NSL Cup Final. The Pink Nightmare are also rivals with both ASC East division members, the Wyvern Riders and the Pit Fiends.
