Got this SMS update just and the writings are clearly on the wall (or screen rather) that Balestier caused an upset by shared the spoils with one of those " early pace-setters " I mentioned, Tampines Rovers. Seems like same ol' story for the Stags, which saw they took the lead through ex-Kashima Antlers player Seiji Kaneko in the 54th minute before the hosts levelled one-all by one of their imports, Ithamar Rangel. No further comment on the play as I wasn't at the match, so no point for me to say anything more. Although, I would like add that it's rather disappointing for contenders like Tampines and Geylang to start their campaign on a low gear. Here we are having these two eastern giants who stated clear they want to achieve something this year and what better time than NOW could not have they do something about it! Like I mentioned earlier, don't leave everything till the last minute and if you can't pick up those points you felt you entitled to, then

Lining up before the start... Just back from the Choa Chu Kang Stadium after witnessed the 2-0 victory by the defending champions SAFFC over Geylang United. Now, straight to the point. In their pre-season seminar, Patrick Ang, the Geylang chairman proclaimed it's "time to get back to the elite group". As usual, before the start of every game. Having seen their performance against the supposedly-fatigued Warriors, who been playing a game every three days since the start of the season, I can't help but wonder if Geylang are moving into the groove in bid to achieve their target? The lack of creativity in their attacking plays and the unforgiven errors by the defence in conceded the two goals are telling signs that they can't afford to repeat those mentioned blunders again, if they want to return to the "elite". Conceded two goals in a space of two minutes . Yes, it may be only two game-old into the new season, however the Eagles should well aware that the

SAFFC's players and officials "get-together" before the start There was some light drizzling at the Jalan Besar Stadium before the start of this crucial fixture that would see SAFFC becoming the first team from Singapore to join the elites in the financial lucrative ACL proper. Like what PSMS Medan's skipper Elie Aiboy lamented during the pre-match media conference on having to play on the new surface of the stadium, the Sumatrans started the game slowly in trying to adapt themselves on this alien pitch. Thus, this had allowed the Warriors, who were also playing for first time on the new surface, to lay a siege in the visitors' half. Therdsak Chaiman's low piledriver in the 36th minute proved to be the ice-breaker of the match, when he nicely-latched onto an Ahmad Latiff's pass to give the Warriors the lead in an otherwise dull and uninspiring start to the game. Defensive lapse in 51st minute allowed Elie Aiboy to slip through a splitting pass that saw Cos

Just got two emails from Nigeria. The one below is from a football agent, as what he claimed, said that he has a group of players ready to ply their trade here. And following that, a player also wrote in and said he's played in number of tournaments in Nigerian and aboard. So any clubs or whosoever are keen (or ready to take them in), please let me know and I will forward the emails to you guys..

After much deliberation, I finally decided to put "BOCAP" (pronounced as "BOH-CHUP") for sale (it was meant to be that way but the only question was selling at what price?). Since having this micro-fibre cap, I been wearing it as a sort of "walking advertisement" (like what AirAsia boss Tony Fernandez always do) at work and at matches in attempt to create some awareness for this blog. The main idea behind "BOCAP", as mentioned before, is to market this blog and generate some funds for the maintaining of it to ensure its long-term sustainability. However, the fund was limited when I decided to push ahead for this project (having to dip into my savings for it) that frankly I will not earn much for this venture, as it'll be just enough to cover the cost of production since only 50 caps will be available for sale . Having said all these... HERE's the PRICE OF EACH "BOCAP" -  S$12  ($11+$1-being "handling charge"
