Are We Good Enough?


So it all comes down to this: the next 5 days. After months of hardwork, sweat, determination, and sacrifice... are we good enough? Can we summon up the strength to come out on top?

"So we've got a big shot stopper (Alex), a good reader of the game in Adrian, attacking full backs in Keon and Arson, Jason who is an experienced covering midfielder, Keon who has pace on the right, Benny/Ming who are unpredictable on the left, Derek & Poay who are intelligent forward supporting midfielders, goal machine Heng and Wes Brown who is Didier Drogba. I think it's a good, solid team with many options." - Derek


Football is a funny game. Some people see it as an opportunity to express themselves. Others see it as being about life and death. I see it as a game of inches. An inch too far, and your keeper misses his save. An inch too wide, and your shot rebounds off the cross-bar. An inch too near, and you've fouled the player and given away a penalty. But it's also these matters of inches that determines whether you win or lose a game. Every inch counts! 'Coz at the end of the day, when the dust has settled, and the game is over, when all the inches have been added up, it might just be the difference between staring at victory or defeat. So, this Thursday, we've got to knuckle down, grit our teeth and fight for every inch up to the last minute... together. Because that's the beauty of football... the 6 inches in front of your face! Question is, how far are you willing to go for those inches?

Ramblers! Ramblers! Ramblers!

I don't know about the 6 inches in front of your face but getting whacked 6 inches above your vital man organs is pretty painful.
