"For the love of football and Myanmar"

"Although Okkthar United and Yangon United are just some of those many clubs in Myanmar, we consider them representing our country whenever they come to play in Singapore." Yangon Utd's fans out in full force to electrify Bishan "And we felt that it is our duty, as a Myanmarese, to support them when they are here." said Mr Tun Tun Min in an email interview ahead of Myanmarese side Yangon United's AFC Cup Group G clash against Home United this evening at the Bishan Stadium. Like many of his fellow countrymen who made their boisterous presence felt in last year's Okkthar United's RHB Singapore Cup run, Tun and few thousands of his compatriots were at the usually mundane Bishan setting when the two sides squared again after a goalless draw last week in Yangon, capital of Myanmar.

(This entry is formulated based on the transcript of the media information issued by the Football Association of Singapore ) Zulkiffli Hassim (in red) will be suspended for five matches SINGAPORE, 10 APRIL 2012 – Balestier Khalsa FC striker Zulkiffli Hassim has been slapped with a five-match ban in the S.League and a suspended fine of S$1,000, after the player pleaded guilty to the charges laid out against him during a disciplinary hearing held at the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) headquarters at Jalan Besar Stadium this evening. On 18th March 2012 during a Great Eastern-YEO’S S.League match at the Toa Payoh Stadium between Balestier Khalsa FC and Woodlands Wellington, Zulkiffli Hassim was sent off by referee K Kalimuthu for making remarks of an offensive and racist nature to Woodlands defender Fabien Lewis.

Stags' in danger of continental elimination

Tampines Rovers' continental campaign is in danger of not having themselves crossing the AFC Cup group stages for the first time since their participation with 1-0 defeat to Malaysian club side Terengganu FA at JBS. A horrific start to the game when Tampines's' custodian Sasa Dreven and defender Benoit Croissant gifted Terengganu FA's Joseph Kalang Tie a perfect gift when the duo's miscommunication resulted an one-nil lead in less than five from the kick-off. Latiff (in leap position) saw his effort twice denied in seconds To be fair to the Stags, they were dominating much of the possession by pressing on after the early setback with ace winger Ahmad Latiff came close twice when his double header in front of goal were denied by the heroics of the Turtles' 'keeper Sharbinee Allawee Ramli in 7th minute coupled with a plenty of misfiring efforts from his team-mates. Nothing much from the much touted Turtle's striker Francis Forkey Doe who was

(P.S: That's precisely why "Instant Reaction" is an essential tag in this blog for cases as such) The latest roll-out this morning by the league authority informed that fans who purchase two adult tickets at selected S.League matches with entitled a complimentary King George’s Stand ticket for the Malaysian Super League (MSL) match between LIONSXII and Perak, 10th April 2012. I am not very sure how well does it say for the whole situation, even though, the league authority in their statement stated "Fans of the S.League will now have a chance to combine their love for local football when they buy S.League match tickets." Although, I am not kind of opine in the same perspective when the S.League itself it trying get its house in order, and initiative as such would make one wonder if the earlier projection of that of the "spill-over" had failed to revive the scene? Rather than hoping the projected "spill-over" effect they longed for
