Summary

It was a return to one of our home grounds. Songbo were looking to used the familiarity of the grounds to gain some advantage. However, our opponents today were always going to be a tough match. They were a full-Indian team that we had lost to before. Upon sighting them, SB's mental strength were put to the test - even before the match has started!! The team started warming up while awaiting the arrival of their star player - PapaSoh.

He finally arrived admist much fanfare as both SB members and the opponents look at him in awe as he strolled into the compound at around 920am. However, he was quite disturbed that some Indian WAGs took a tad too long a look at him. He quickly "siam" to the SB changing area and changed into his gear. Perhaps Capt Sparrow realised that some SB members needs a wake-up call after a string of poor or mediocre results. He decided that he had to unleash the very hungry Papasoh and let him show some of the SB members what hunger and mental strength is all about and the lost for generations and rarely seen skill -its called the You-dun-need-to-run-a-lot-to-contribute-positively-skill. Papa was going to be unleashed behind Torres today. With Torres just back recently from injury and not exactly sharp, and most SB attackers lacking sharpness and confidence, the personnel shuffle by Capt sparrow proved to be a master stroke!! - He could have won the world cup if he had a chance.....

Masterstroke aside, the most annoying thing had to happen ...again...Referee is LATE! and I mean really late! He strolled into the match compound....at the stroke of half-time!!!! Yes.... @ 940am sharp. Nowadays referee simply have no respect towards star players as can be seen that in this case he was actually 20 mins later than the star player from SB....Sigh!!!
