Don't let misguided passion for the old days blind us to the reality. There is a lot of work that needs to be done today, but we've moved a fair bit since the 70s and 80s.
As I recall, both Japan and China recalled ALL their European based players to play us, as opposed to other opponents. What does that say? "

Ya lor, our Sleague teams can beat Albirex and Sinchi. Another important fact from our claimed worldwide million viewers Sleague.Originally posted by LazerLordz:That's taking that assumption too far.

Now that's just a plain lie.Originally posted by rojak12:Ya lor, our Sleague teams can beat Albirex and Sinchi. Another important fact from our claimed worldwide million viewers Sleague.
C'mon, Sinchi closed down.
The National Team may be alright, but the S-League is a mess.

No lah, Sleague is so much better than Malaysia Cup! Because of Sleague, we won 2 Asian Fed Cups. Only Sleague can produce results!Originally posted by LazerLordz:Now that's just a plain lie.

Cheers to Sleague!
Correct? -
I'm amazed by the way you draw your conclusions. Utterly creative.Originally posted by rojak12:No lah, Sleague is so much better than Malaysia Cup! Because of Sleague, we won 2 Asian Fed Cups. Only Sleague can produce results!

Correct?
The strength of a national team is not exactly correlated to the strength of the national league. France is a good example. -
I learn from the best. I really like your postulation. FAS needs people like you to convince the nation.Originally posted by LazerLordz:I'm amazed by the way you draw your conclusions. Utterly creative.

French team has players doing their trade in the world best league.
Our players do their trade in the Sleague.
Therefore, Sleague must be good! Only Sleague is the way to produce results!
Correct??? Whahaha...bring it on! -

My original post in Speaker Corner, all I am saying is to bring back the Malaysia Cup. This is the only league format that I think can generate huge interest.Originally posted by LazerLordz:....
There is no way in the current Sleague format can have attendance of 50K.
SAF vs Home vs Tampines etc...no way. Even 50 years down the road no way.
Then you implied that if we stayed in Malaysia Cup, our national team will be weaker, meaning, Sleague is better.
Our COE, youth team etc, I am not against it.
I am against the format of Sleague and FAS administration. That's all. -
I get your point, but what other alternative can you think of? Malaysia Cup is a step backwards, because fan support does not mean your coaching standards is good too.Originally posted by rojak12:My original post in Speaker Corner, all I am saying is to bring back the Malaysia Cup.

The S-League has to stay, but it must be privatised and reshaped. Keep the government's hands away, except for investment. -

S league is quite messy. The lack of interest here is because of european football on tv. This is not only happening in SG but other asian countries also... Tts y S league got a huge mountain to climb to generate interest and income from gates receipt. With interest then comes more money from TV live matches and better sponsorships. Its vicious cycle.. -
Well but the North Asia counterparts are able to produce players capable of competing in Europe..with the latest China's Dong who might be recalled back from loan in the next season with Man United.Originally posted by Xtrider:think too much la...they wan to maintain gd bilateral ties so dun wan to malu us ma....

Like i said earlier on, abolish the S-league, send the boys to the China League for a start, pay money to participate and gain more exposure so that they improve to compete in the international stage.
