Damn what a good story! I play in Indonesia with Persija Jakarta (Orange team). The league is very easy but the difference in quality between the competition and the Asian Champions League is big.

Nevertheless KUTGW!

Persija

Always a real pain in the arse when it comes to playoffs

retired_pmetzger1

Is that really what you meant, or has something got lost in translation? :eek:

retired_ironmaden

Well, it was a series of winning by 3+ goal margin, running everyone into the ground, plus some highly dirty defending (a lot of strikers left on a stretcher).

Maybe there's a better word for it, probably there must be.

retired_pmetzger1

I'd probably use demolishing, personally.

KUTGW though.

Thanks.

Actually I was looking to translate a quite strong Hungarian expression

:eek: you manage to unearth a promising Bruneian striker?

How do the Singapore teams do in the Asian cups ( ) emgergo? Or how are the national teams doing?

retired_ironmaden

To my greatest astonishment, I have 4 Bruneian national team members in my squad. :eek: What's even more shocking, Brunei made the Asian Cup this year, relying heavily on DPMM players, plus my four.

My scout unearthed a talented 18-year old AML from East Timor :eek: Now, that's what I call exotic! :cool:

As for Singapore: the national teams gathered a total of 1 point during the recent Asian Cup qualifying, failing to score in the process.

Club competitions: Gombak Utd just have crashed out in the quarter-finals of the Confederations' Cup (or what...). Young Lions are about to play in the AFF Championship.

Domestic champions:

2007: Tampines
2008: Young Lions
2009-12: Gombak Utd
2013: SAFCC
2014: Young Lions

Persikad, Indonesian Premier League, Gr B, 2015

Media: 3rd

Fans, board: top half

After the major frustration of last season, I'm looking for a vengeance. And wins. In comes a Cameroonian striker, who was top goalscorer twice in the last three years, an international DC and a young AMR, plus several backups. Out goes for an Indonesian record 1,1M my young international AM R and a few squad players.

First Phase is usual. Like last year, we hand ut heavy beatings, and win our group by 16 points.

So far, so good. But as the last seasons showed, first phase win = a big fat 0.

Playoffs start with two 3-0 wins, leaving us the golden opportunity to walk into the final. We can do this even with a loss of two goals, so a 0-0 is more than enough.

Final opposition is Persija, with whom we played only once, and won 3-0 in a Super Cup final. We score in the 3rd and in the 7th minute, they have a player sent off for headbutting, and extend our lead to 3-0 right before the half time whistle. So basically it's all over, and the second half is just for pure entertainment

3-0 it finishes, and we can celebrate a championship again, after 5 long years. :thup:

We have the chance for a double, and we don't blow it away: a 45th minute header gives us the club's 3rd Indonesian Cup win.

Double! \o/ :cool:

The board offers me a miserable contract, so I decline, and not go forward to my 10th year at Persikad.
