UP CLOSE and PERSONAL TOUCH

Sometimes, I wondering if those so-called EPL clubs "fans" ever thought of dreaming able to get UP CLOSE with the likes Owen, Henry and etc. I'm sure they do, unfortunately how?? Simple isn't, just book a flight to Britain and hang out at the training grounds, chances of getting a picture taken with these millionaires and autographs might be possible. But, think back these millionaires would once a while pay a visit and play some what they called " holiday football" Still remembered the eccentric Fabian Barthez, then the Man Utd 'keeper, came on as an outfield player during their tour game here in 2001? While, some may took that as a fun gesture but large number of fans felt offended as they, having paid those astronomical admission charges to see the Red Devils played a half-hearted game. Inevitably, these "holiday" fixtures months ago drew sharp criticism from the AFC. I having those mentioned thoughts after came back from Toa P

Return of the FALL GUY

The news about the returning of the former national coach Vincent Subramaniam to S-League had been circulated around the football circle.lately. Looks like, he is heading back to SAFFC the coming season, since the incumbent Dane coach Kim Poulsen is heading back to his native land.after the season ends. Heralded as a "hero welcome back" home seems to overshadow.the unforgettable fact about his dismal record as the national team coach. Just wondering who could forget his refusal to include the "Dazzler" V Sundramoorthy (pictured below on the left)in one of the high-profile game, thus sealed the end of Sundram's international career. A picture took with the "Dazzler", himself (who coulld ever forget that "bicycle" kick he struck against the Brunians in 1993)

Hang On...

It seems that not many teams, especially the title contenders, not keen with the idea of playing Albirex Niigata, at this stage of the season. Afterall, it's the fasting month of the Muslim and given the fact that most of the football players are Muslim, thus it will take some times before the players get used to the condition. Second placed SA FFC paid a visit to Jurong East stadium to pit agsinst the pacey Albirex. It looked as if, the White Swans were going to torn the Warriors apart with their pacey game. Anyway, SAFFC managed to come from behind to level the game and th erefore hang on to the title race. Of course, a game with such an intensity is definitely not without its share of boiling points. The atmosphere was fantanstic, thanks to drumming (to certain extend) and the tireless cheering from both sets of fans

CALL FOR MASS MEDIA INVOLVEMENT

For those who visited my website before, all should know that from time to time, I would definitely poke fun at the some members of the local mainstream media, particularly on their coverage on local football. Here we are several thousand miles away from the British Isle, yet our mainstream papers look as they are "part of the British media", shelling out comments, reviews and previews so long the likes of England,Chelski, Liverpools and Man Us are being featured. While at our own backyard here, the current reigning Tiger Cup champions Singapore national team are upgainst the Cambodia national team in Phnom Penh on the 11th Oct. Yet, being called itself the so-called "football paper" (if l'm not wrong), the main aftertnoon daily seems to be more concerned about the performance of the "Three Lions" rather than our very OWN Lions. Extensive coverage and comments on the English chalked up much of the back pages with almost 0% on the local game . While the
