Singapore Boleh!

OK, a super outdated post, but anyway here goes!

March 26 - Singapore VS Lebanon.
World Cup 2010 Qualifiers!

(God knows where Lebanon is)

Being the very enthusiastic Kallang supporters, Jx, Busy Roys (who brought his friends along) and I, plus Ivan and ShihLing all marched towards the Old Maiden Kallang Stadium in the evening to grab tickets!

Wha lao... got student tickets at $3 one leh. but only applicable to secondary school and ITE students. WTH?!? Why?? My Matric Card says I am a student ok?! Why so bias?! So other than sec sch and ITE students, the rest are very rich issit?! Though I live in a bungalow and have a couple of property in Malaysia under my name, nvm la, I in a good mood, so don't want to ka jiao them lor. So we all purchased adult gallery tickets at $10.


Since we reached much earlier than the kick off timing at 7.30pm (to stick our butts to the seats with a good view of the field), the stadium was still rather empty and the spectators were slowly streaming in.


The Lebanon players warming up.


And the LIONS!!!!!


The sky was clearing for the big match. It was drizzling before that. And by the way, Hang Ten doesn't rent umbrellas any more! T_T




Enthusiastic supporters group 1.


More Enthusiastic supporters group 2!



And so, they kick off!!!

Courtesy of No. 9 Duric's (36 years old) and No. 8 Winger's goals, Singapore won comfortably 2-0 on home soil. We could have scored more if not for very lousy finishing in front of goal.

Anyways only the section of the spectators in front were die hard fans, cheering and singing. But the section which we were seated in were quiet and emotionless. So sian lor. Only know how to clap only. Zzz!

And so... we all parted the Kallang Stadium, knowing this had been the last competitive soccer match to be held here, before it gives way to the new Sports Hub.

Random notes from Ye

On 2 separate occasions, I was working at my home desk when Ye sat beside, doodled on a post-it and passed it to me:
