4 November 06: Match Day

Welcome to November,

After a disappointing way to end the last soccer game of October, we move ahead in the month of ups n downs... Ups for the start of sch holidays and a time to play my fav song, November Rain... Downs for the exams-takers and students... Sigh~

The last game we had in Henderson is terrible and really disappointing. With only 4 Kismis Utd players present only, the rest r all outsiders. Wat's the reason? Dnt wanna travel, dnt wanna play with others or dnt wanna change location? Dnt really understand tis bit... I think we gotta improve on tis also... Need to travel a bit at times to challenge others n learn frm other opponents... Of cos, if we have enough players to play among ourselves then of cos our own players come first. Reasons for the change of location to Henderson is bcos Ngee Ann Poly is booked for their sports meet and NUS' courts r used for some sort of tourney... So no choice we travel a bit more... But that should not b gd excuse not to turn up lor... Well, lesson learn bah...

Tis coming Sat, hopefully we'll see a better turn out... 4 Kismis Utd players is a disgrace~! Jeremy have invited his friends to come tis Sat, so 5 ppl from his side liao. Expect to see Fiq n Dieq return also. The rest i dunno liao...

Regarding the ball issue, Ben will b going to Qnsway to get one tis Fri... Can Fiq bring the other ball also. N to tos who have not pay me up, i need to close acct liao, pls pay me buy tis Sat...

Lets kick ball~

Hiya ppl~!

Enuff festive and love sessions liao, COME BACK TO SOCCER~!

Well last week's soccer sure is fun... Managed to play our 2 courts thingy again... Having 16 ppl sure makes a diff, the game gets fast pace and more technical... Hope to get this constant amount of players every week...

Tis coming Sat should expect to see a return of a few more players but as usual, a disappearance of another few... Seems like we wont really manage to see a full Kismis squad gathering any time sooner... Btw, the newest issue now is about t soccer-ball... One of them got screwed by our power kicks n decided to loose form... Can i suggest that we have at least 2 balls for every Sat??? Else, we'll end up with no ball to play liao if any other balls blows... Can someone b a bit auto to do so, thx...

The other thingy is abt jerseys, can tos guys who have not taken there jerseys to show face on Sat??? Or at least inform us earlier, dnt make Jacky bring the jerseys every week and then bring them home...

Looking forward to this Sat~

Hazzzzello ppl again,

Still blur? Seeing smoke? Well thanks to our dear neighbour, we r turning into beef jerkys. N for some others, they look like Rudolph now... Stay healthy guys, we got soccer games ahead.

Okie, first thingy, the jersey updates. Jerseys r finally done! I'd seen it, very nice printing and numbering. Clean white + navy blue prints is sure a nice striking combi. We'd sent our badge to be done by the same shop also. Those guys there seems desperate to earn the badge money from us too. Haha, JonD juz gave them an immediate yes answer for that. Okie, i dunno if they'll do good. Trust them lor... The shop ppl mentioned that the badge will cost something between $6-8 each. Now here comes the exciting part, how much is JonD going to pay for us??? Well he juz jolly mentioned that he'll sponsor didnt he??? Lets see how much tat wil be...

Oh so will you guys prepare $12 (Jersey) + $6-8 (Badge) to pay up when u see us???

Collecting of the jerseys should b tis Thurs or Fri. So we r gonna hand out t jerseys tis Sat. If you want your jersey, come down tis Sat. Be there! Now the issue is the transportation, u cant expect me to bring all the jerseys home right! Damn heavy leh, will someone with a car offer to help on this?

Smokinzzz...

Foldable Goalposts?

Hey guys, it's your on-loan player again.

I was wonder if you can find foldable goal-posts in Singapore in the normal sports shops.

I've spoken to Eric a long time ago about getting goalposts for our courts, but then we agreed that we would have issues about leaving it there when we are not playing - issues about weather, theft and unauthorized use. And besides, we are not even authorized to be leaving stuff like that there.

So a good solution would be foldable goalposts. I can swear from the experience that I have with them here is that they are sturdier than they look, and are quite durable. I was wondering if we could get those, then maybe we would feel more like we are playing a soccer game rather than just kicking a soccer ball.

The one I found in Australia is 1.4m in height and 2.4m across, which is decent street-soccer size. It costs about Aus$70 (~S$91) for one goalpost though. That's pretty expensive need I not say. Though I'm sure if such a product existed in Singapore, it would be cheaper. So what do you guys think? If every member chips in a bit, we got goalposts to enjoy. Like Eric, I can subsides it, so collect only lik $5 from each dude (which to be honest, we probably waste on a soccer bet in SGpools). Do you guys think it's worth it?

Also, if anyone comes across them when they visit a sports store, quote me the price. I don't expect anyone to go out of their way to look for them. (I'll probably do that at the end of the year when I'm back), so just if you happen to pass by one, or go to a sports shop.

Tag or mail me your feed back yea? Thanx.

Hiya ppl,

The draught continues... Last Sat was kinda miserable for a count. A proud 5-aside is all we could managed n thanks to some last minute appearance by a few ppl else it's really a sad case. This wk-end i aint sure if things gonna stay t same or wat. But what's sure is who wont b expecting Fiq n Dieq n Dennis. Jacky and Erwin mentioned that they r not available also. Aint too sure abt the rest. Can we have an update on this asap.

Okie next the good news. I'd gotta our new team jerseys done. Ready for badge printing on Wed. But the sad thingy is, JonD still havent got the logo yet. So we'll have to wait for dunno where to get the badge printed onto t jersey (Delay again?). Hopefully we can get the jerseys frm the shop n immediately pass it to the printing shop for process. Dnt wanna bring home the jerseys then bring them down to Qnsway again, tats so lame. I m not going to do it!

Btw, i'll need to collect $11 from each of the member for the jersey. As for the badge, ask JonD. I aint sure if he wanna charge u guys free or what.
