FAS axes the whole National Team ?!?!


Excuse me, are you kidding me?

In what is a thinly veiled desperate attempt to "resuscitate" the FAS's reputation and maybe save a few "rice bowls", the FAS has decided to drop ALL current National Team players a.k.a the Lions...

I think this is the lamest piece of news I have ever seen in local football, other than of course the unveiling of the pathetic animal mascots they use for the S-League.

If the FAS think that making a publicity act of and shaming the now ex-Lions will save them the wrath of the Singapore fans, they are sadly mistaken...

For all the bad publicity about lax discipline and true to a good extent; poor performances from the Lions, I don't think the players are all to blame. I mean its been a whole year of dismal results in 2010, surely the man who picked the team Mr Raddy Avramovic and his coaches must take some blame? Surely, the FAS which did not "plan" ahead for the Suzuki Cup, thus leaving us with a bunch of oldies for the tournament should deserve a smacking too?

Anyway, Singapore fans, no matter how die-hard they may be are really just fans of Man Utd, Liverpool and what have you... we are part time Singaporeans when it comes to football. And that is a sad fact; but one that just reflects the dismal state of local football since the days of Fandi Ahmad, Abbas Saad and Sundramoorthy...
