AVOID LAPSE OF CONCENTRATION AT ALL COSTS!

Shared my thoughts on the upcoming AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup semi-final (1st Leg) match with CNA.

"In the second half against Thailand, the lapses in concentration caused us to concede a few goals,"

"The lapses of concentration in critical moments is something that the Lions have to avoid at all costs."

"​​A FLASH IN THE PAN - KGS"

At one point in time, a temporary stand of 1,500, popularly known as King George's Stand or KGS, was erected to increase the capacity of JBS (Jalan Besar Stadium) to 8,000 back in 2012 just before the commencement of the Lions XII's maiden Malaysian Super League campaign.

The installation of KGS was part of the sponsorship agreement between FAS and Kingsmen who bore the cost of more than $250,000 to build before the dismantling of the structure upon the expiration of the relevant permit in November 2015, according to a TNP report dated 25th September 2015, which ended the page with the following text:"𝘞𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘢 𝘚𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘚𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘳 𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘵 𝘑𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘯 𝘉𝘦𝘴𝘢𝘳 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘶𝘮."

Even if there is an idea to expand the JBS in the future, the surroundings of the stadium have made it look impossible. There are a number of commercial and residential properties that clearly present challenges to such an expansion.

​​𝐈𝐅 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐘...

If it were that easy to have one football-dedicated stadium in Singapore bigger than the Jalan Besar Stadium (JBS), we would have gotten one already a long time ago.

Based on what I gathered, there were, at least, three attempts to have one such arena for that sole purpose in the last 30-odd years.

The first plan I came across was mooted by Tampines Rovers Sports Club (not to be confused with the Singapore Premier League club of the same name) in a TNP (The New Paper) article back in January 1992.

Another plan to have "one medium-sized football-specific stadium" lesser known" was listed under "5. Football Facilities" in the lesser-known "Strategic Plan" unveiled by the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) in April 2010.

The most recent intention to have one for their own was by the privately-owned Lion City Sailors, whose ambition was reported by The Straits Times back in November 2021.

PERRY'S NOT LIKE BUTCHER

I realised how inadequate my knowledge about the local citizenship laws is when there were a few names besides Perry Ng were suggested in various debates on the possibility of becoming a Lion.

If it is the way like some thought, former defender Terry Butcher should have played for us instead of England, right?

At the meantime, let's hope for the good news by keeping our fingers crossed.
