Did I accidentally leave anyone out?

I am devastated. After 30 minutes, where the match was deadlocked at 0-0, my team lost 5-0. I did a few spectacular saves but it all came to nothing. My team got sick of defending and everyone pushed forward.

For Team B, Tang Yao with vital saves. Cher Siang, though he wants me dead for unknown reasons, stayed behind to defend. My team got no defender! The trio of David, Nicholas and Uncle Justin did the most damage in the middle. How Meng's Friend on the wings had a very good game. Jeff full of running on the right-wing.

After 3-0 down, I switched with How Meng. He is not pleased with that and let in 2 goals in quick succession. It was supposed to be Kang Xiang and Ah San maintaining at the back. With Wee Zheng protecting them. Once In A While Guy and How Meng on the wings. Shyong Ming supporting Ah San in front.

Glen came in the 2nd match where the team I'm in won 3-0.

MAN OF THE MATCH: UNCLE JUSTIN

H8FC Training 20 October 2012

Another happy Saturday. These are the people who played...

Syahrein - My Frank Lampard long-range passes failed on this day. I think it's the ground.

Uncle Justin - Came back after spending time with his wife.

David - The best thing about him is he knows where to position himself when not with the ball.

Kang Xiang - Gung-ho style of football. Takes on defenders.

Tang Yao - Always boasting he's Bowen 2nd choice. I'd like to see him in between standard goalposts. That won't be long when all of us are working.

Cher Siang - Been scoring goals even as defender these days.

How Meng - Did one of the trainers at Home United demoralize him? He seems to be distracted while playing.

How Meng's friend - I accidentally kicked him on the leg. Well, his legs move from side to side. I was aiming for the ball, he moved his leg and I accidentally did it.

Ah San - Our CEO is not sharp as he used to.

Wee Zheng - He is the average Joe who uses his intelligence to attract the girls. 75% of his girl friends are using him to dig up information about Q-S.

Nicholas - Refuses to defend. I am not into players who dribble, doesn't want to pass to teammates with better position and got caught in possession.

MAN OF THE MATCH: DAVID TEO

H8FC Training 13 October 2012

Yesterday was fun-filled. Many regulars didn't come so we played with small kids. These kids are quite talented. When H8FC becomes official, I won't be surprised if I'm 50 years old managing these kids when they grow up.

We played a few matches. First match mixture of us and the kids. I scored a hat-trick in an 8-2 victory. Because we are playing with kids. You won't see me dribble down the left flank as regularly as 15 years ago.

Second match was a 5-2 victory. I scored a simple goal with my sidefoot. I got tired in the middle and had to play goalkeeper.

Third match was a wretched 5-1 loss. I played keeper throughout and though I saved, the balls still go in.

The main event...

Team A 10 Team B 7

Team A

GK - Tang Yao
CD - Syahrein
LM - Nicholas
CM - Alex
RM - David

Team B

GK - They rotate keeper
CD - Cher Siang
CM - Wee Zheng
CM - Kang Xiang
CM - Ah San
ST - Daniel

I'm glad Tang Yao wasn't yelling and complaining. Because Team A led from start to finish. I think I did well as a defender. If not for medicine killing my stamina, I would run on the left-flank more. Nicholas had some misplaced passes. Alex and David who are brothers combined well. They should show no mercy, keep their game to basics, no fancy-fancy and clinically finish with goals when shots are clear on sight.

Cher Siang should continue with his brute force. Not just people he despise but everyone who plays for the opposing team. Wee Zheng thanks for the doughnut. It's a wise move for you not to let your girlfriend sees Q-S in the flesh. Kang Xiang again was running everywhere. Very fit. Our CEO Ah San is not as sharp as he used to. He seems to be troubled in his mind. Daniel had another horrific injury. 2 young boys replaced him.

MAN OF THE MATCH: KANG XIANG

H8FC Training 6 October 2012

Team A 10 Team B 7

Team A

GK - Syahrein
LB - Wei Yao's little brother
DM - Wee Zheng
RM - Jeff
LM - Nicholas
AM - Shyong Ming
ST - Daniel

Team B

GK - They rotate keeper
CD - Ah San
LM - Kelvin
CM - Alex
CM - Javier
RM - David
RW - Glen
ST - Indian Beckham Boy

On paper, it seems Team B will walkover Team A. They have Ah San, Alex, Javier and Glen. All Team A players step up to the plate. Especially Daniel who scored a lot. Team A were up 5-2 during half-time.

Wei Yao's little brother and Kelvin returned after a-year-long hiatus. They show no rustiness at all. Wee Zheng surprisingly had a good game. Jeff full of vigour at the right of midfield. He injured Ah San's hand but I didn't saw that. Nicholas really did well as a midfielder. Shyong Ming was good too.

Ah San not as sharp as he used to. I wish I could tell his daughter don't work in IMH. Doctors, student nurses and therapists some of them go crazy and end up as patients. Alex text me with this,'i didn't play well. a little rusty'. David, though had an off-day text me,'Scored a well taken solo goal' Even Glen not fairing too well even though he too scored. Indian Beckham Boy is in offside position.

MAN OF THE MATCH: NICHOLAS

H8FC Training 29 September 2012

It was a joyful day. Little children playing with us led by Ah San's son. There was this 9 year old pretty fat girl who amuse me. Poor Ah San's son was teased by me as I joked about his pretty sister.

I think these are the people who played...

Syahrein
Ah San
David
Wee Zheng
Jia Qi
New Spectacled Guy
Tian Ting
En Rong
Jeff
Daniel
Once In A While Guy
Tang Yao

Did I accidentally leave anyone out?

I did well as defender and keeper. I was making crude jokes about Ah San's daughter and didn't realize Ah San was behind me! David again likes to position himself on the right. Wee Zheng and his iPhone. Does his female friends know Q-S? Poor Jia Qi tried to score and I accidentally elbowed him in the gut. New Spectacled Guy may be those guys who came and never return. Tian Ting and En Rong played well. I would like to have them in our squad when we enter a private league.

Jeff with all his moves. Daniel trying to score. Once In A While Guy playing like a Korean. Tang Yao is in a good mood playing in a team that won 4-1. Who's the sole defender? Me.

Overall, it was an enjoyable and fun-filled day. :)
