Jersey hunt results

Hey hey ppl...

We went for a recce for our new jerseys at Queensway yesterday and we found these:





Brand: Lotto
Colors: White, black, red, blue
Material: Lycra? I dunno, but it sure is smooth n good
Price: $26 (I m going to absorb $15 of it, so u guys paying $11 only)
Printing: Free (No. and name is inclusive; you can print any amount of letters)
Logo: $6 for iron-print & $10 for emboid

We didnt have time to see any other shops but seriously there aint any other 'good' shops doing team jerseys in Queensway anyway. So thought we juz settle with this shop lor. Definitely, we are open for another round of recce if you guys are free. Oh there is a minimum order of 20 jerseys. We'd got 17 guys now, we need 3 more?!? So meanwhile, you guys have to recruit more players lor. It'll take about a week to get everything done.

The faster we response, the faster we can get our new jerseys.

2 September 06: Match Day + Event

How was last week? Sian, i cant come for soccer...

Btw, thanks you ppl for the treat. Yummy~!

Okie, back to soccer issues. Heard news from someone that one of our members 'surprised' us again. When we wanted a headcount, we meant to ensure everyone who comes down to play, will enjoy the game. Dnt wanna see people wasted their time waiting to play. So pls make sure u inform ya the personel-in charge how many players u have with u every Sat. Anyone else will b considered as outsiders. And i make it clear, WE DNT ENTERTAIN OUTSIDERS... When the cat is away, the mouses come out to play. U really need someone to tame these mouses.

Anyway, hope such things dnt happen anymore. Btw, i m proposing an earlier game tis Sat (If it's an early game, i can play also mah) and also informing u guys of another event happening on tat nite.

Here goes:

Event: Over-Nite cycling
Venue: Tiong Bahru Community Centre (To Marina or further)
Date & time: 2 September 06, 9.00pm

26 August 06: Match Day

Another week has gone by. No time left. Another delay???

Well, the last outing at NUS didnt went as planned... We got disrupted by a bunch of clowns, we got player who didnt come, we got player who choose not to come, we got players who come n disappear without inform us & we also got someone who posted on the blog suggesting to go Queensway but ended up doing nothing. Where's t sense of responsibility of these ppl u might wonder??? Well it's not going to do the team any good anyway. But luckily we still have a good turn out, so game as usual 4 us. Had a shorter game of 7 v 8 but still a cool thing. We r happy to welcome Ben onboard Kismis Utd. He'll b our first major signing, hahaha... (Ben if u free, send your details to Chris via kismisunited@yahoo.com.sg so he can update t team list)

Anyway, tis Sat's soccer is back at Kismis. From the news, it seems like we will be missing some players (Including me). So good luck on the planning...

Here goes:

Event: Saturday soccer game
Venue: Kismis
Date & time: 26 August 06, 9.45am
Attire: Streets
Personel-in-charge: JonD
Remarks: Be punctual lor (I know ppl still ignore tis one)!!! Ball-bearer please come early hor (Tis one even worse). Sub-leaders please confirm your ppl wif JonD before Friday.

I know this post hardly takes precedence over the more-important match day post by Eric.. So PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO READ THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION BY ERIC.

The Yahoo! Fantasy League would be lock and uneditable from 19 August (Saturday) 1900hrs (sg time, I believe) till the weekend games are over. Hence, please finalize your teams for the start of the season!

I thank all the players who have joined so far. And just to let you know who is who in the league table:

LameTeam = Chau
denn10 = Dennis
Shawnster Inc = Shawn
NKT United = Eric
Friends Forever FC = Ian
The Kings = Den (King)
One Leg Good = Erwin
JonD = JonD
Sluggers = Mark
Senbonzakura = (Shahin) Khail

Good luck to all the participants for the season ahead.. and may the 'Special One' win.. no, not Mourinho.

19 August 06: Match Day

Happy~! Last week's game at NUS is great. Thanks to some crazy last minute arrangement, we r all game in... Lotsa ppl came and in the end we played a crazy 8-aside?!? Wah kaoz... We managed to secure the bigger court and clocked 4-hrs of extreme soccer; 2 games wif our own guys and 1 game against some 'locals' from NUS... Haha, they got whipped by us of cos! We are juz too good for them...

NUS is sure a nice place to play at, wif lotsa mei-mei to watch also... N damn, like wat M.S. said 'We r so popular, even actors wanna come play with us...' N sure, we do attract one mediacock actor wif us... Think we should go there more often...

Btw, tis coming wk-end, we r back to our home ground, Kismis. Tat lazy JonD dnt wanna plan so i'll b arranging for u guys again... But i think we could definitely go for an earlier timing since we can do it at NUS, why not at Kismis??? So we can have a longer period of soccer also...

~NEWSFLASH~

Omg, u guys juz did it again~! N u have got yaself another match @ NUS!!! A goddamn 18 ppl to the count... Shiok man~! It's gonna b another early game, cos we need to go chop the place before others invade the place... So b early tat day so tat everyone can start the game, plus we dnt need to entertain other ppl if we got enuff... U all making me so 'gian' liao...


Last row call: JonD, Jere, Eric, Erwin, Shawn, Allen, Shahin, Jacky, Ken, Weichong, King, WC's friend, Karl, Denn, Tong, Fiq, Dieq & Ian...

Yahoo! Fantasy League

Hey guys!

I probably sent you all in invite directly to your e-mailbox, but I'm posting it up to let it be publicly known we got a "Kismis n Co" league running in Yahoo! Fantasy Socccer. Oh yes, my yahoo email address is "fark_my_spider". and my team is "LameTeam", just so you know who I am.

For those of you who don't know, we ran the fantasy league last year - which was won by Shawn.. BUT i came in second! Haha. Just to fill in the ignorant, fantasy league soccer is picking your players and they score points according to how they perform in real life every week. More details on the website. I bet I'm insulting your intelligence by saying that, but I don't want to over-assume everyone knows what I'm talkin about.

The league is open to all Kismis and friends. And friends of friends and friends of friends of friends etc. Basically to anyone. But I would appreciate if you told me who you are when you join. And I'm encouraging more people to play! More the merrier!

And remember to check on your league team every week!

For those of you who don't know the link its http://uk.premiership.fantasysports.yahoo.com/football

The group ID is #2477
and password is "kismis" (thanks Den for correcting me)
the leagues name should be "Kismis n Co"

See you there.

Jersey Colour: Member's Vote

Okay, after getting approval, I think it was a good idea to get the members only to vote for our new jersey. Afterall, we will be the ones wearing it. And putting a public vote, god knows who had voted. No wonder only got 2 members say they voted pink.. yet there were 8 votes?

Also, it has been clarified that this jersey colour is our ALTERNATE jersey colour - or AWAY kit if you like. I was mistaken at first too, so I voted red on the previous poll. Anyway, since we are doing away with that poll, let's clarify that it's our away jersey. So quit voting red!

To have the members voices only, it can also be open ended. Honestly, it was insane to put all possible colours on a poll rite? So we'll have it open-ended. Suggestions for secondary colour are also welcome. For example "primary: black; secondary: white" etc..

Here is how the votes have been so far:
(by jersey number)

Fiq: blue/white
Tong:
Shawn: white
Eric "Nakitas": orange/white
JonDavid:
Chau: white
Hao:
MS: pink
(Shahin) Khail:
Ken:
S.Ian: black
Dennis: pink
Jacky: white
W.C: anything
Erwin:
Den "King": anything

hope its not too late:

5 August 06: Match Day

OKie, as usual, there will be soccer tis coming Sat. I was not around last wk and it seems like some unwelcomed thingy did happened, with a few players grumbling about it. Well juz when you think that we can settle down & look ahead, problems come to us again. But no worries lah, we'll solve it, even if we have to take some drastic measures.

I heard that, tis coming Sat, we can expect a near full attendence for all 16 players liao. Tats gd news. So we can really sit n plan further liao. But of cos, not forget the soccer game itself la. Feedback is that our players dnt enjoy playing 3 teams unless it's all our own people. N we will not entertain any other ppl who pop up and wanted to play 'Next team'... Priority is always given to our own people...

Btw, we should be making our way down to queensway to reece our jersey after the game. Hope can come up wif a budget & settle on color options & such~ *Will JonD bring along t logo to check out t printing price, thank you* Anyone interested, pls tag along~


Here goes:

Event: Saturday soccer game
Venue: Kismis Courts
Date & time: 5 August 06, 9.45am
Attire: Streets
Personel-in-charge: Eric & JonD
Remarks: Be punctual again (5-10min late is okie)!!! I'll personally make sure ball-bearer, JonD, is early. I'll b at his place to give him the 'alarm clock' treatment... Sub-leaders please confirm your ppl wif JonD before Friday, dnt wait till last minute then got weird weird people turn up... Let's kick some bolla~!
