Australian team brings Robbie Fowler back to Singapore!
New A-League Franchise North Queensland Fury to play Singapore at Jalan Besar Stadium on 31 May 2009

Robbie Fowler was part of the Liverpool team that last visited Singapore in 2001. He is also the only overseas Marquee player in the Australian A-League for the upcoming season, which has seen the likes of Romario, Dwight Yorke and Juninho show their skills in previous years.

It would be a definite treat for Singaporean Liverpool Fans and Football fans in general to see the North Queensland Fury in action in their first ever overseas tour to South East Asia.
Coach Ian Ferguson added, “The upcoming game against the Rovers will definitely warm the boys up for our 09-10 league back home. The boys are ready and we are looking forward to an exciting match against Singapore. Fans will surely not be disappointed.”
The North Queensland Fury will be conducting a clinic for school children (poster above) upon their arrival in Singapore. Conducted by the coaching staff and the players, it will commence on 30th May and held at the Hougang Stadium. A special appearance would be made by legendary ex-Singapore international Fandi Ahmad at the clinic.
In addition, a gala dinner will be hosted on the same night for members of the Australian and British expatriate community together with local businesses. Limited spaces are still available to the public wishing to be part of this exclusive event.
Another key highlight is a charity curtain raiser that will be played before the main event which will see the legendary Singapore ‘Dream Team’ of the 90s make a return on the pitch after 14 years. The team will also feature prolific goal scorer Abbas Saad who will make his appearance after a decade away from the football scene, who will once again team up with former captain Fandi Ahmad and midfield dynamo Malek Awab. They will go up against a local Celebrity team including singer-rapper Sheikh Haikel and radio Deejays Glenn Ong and Rod Monterio. The adopted charity for the “Dream Team” is the CARE United program which is S-League’s unique charity and community programme, designed to enrich the lives of the less fortunate through football. The programme is seeks to benefit three key areas, namely less fortunate children with a love for football, the elderly who are active at heart and the Development of Women’s Football in Singapore.

In order to attract fans,it is vital to spread the news.
ReplyDeleteYeah hope the attendance for this game will be good even though the ticket price is a bit unrealistic!
Hi "Donar"...
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that to bring in the fans it's important spread the word around.
Unfortunately, just a feeling that I seems to have feeling that this friendly is hardly mentioned in "mainstream" media.
I hope the the pricing of the admission charges would not deter fans to turn out and hope the "Fowler", "Dream Team Trio" will be pivotal in doing the trick
