Pre-Season

Pre-season has always been a roller-coaster ride for fans of every club. Setting high hopes of acquiring a player once known to be the best in the world, Man City has to eat their words as The Bunny Rabbit decided to Join AC Milan instead to joing Kaka and Pato, instead of Jo in Manchester.

Living no stones unturned, Man Utd are still trying to manipulate Tevez's protracted transfer saga while praying hard that Berbatov will join The Champions. Meanwhile, everyone at Manchester is silently praying that Ronaldo will go to hell with his stupid remarks together with the ever-no-brainer Sepp Blatter.

Meanwhile, in Singapore, the transfer window has yet to see any massive transfers except for the return of Noh Alam Shah to club football.

What is more significant in Singapore is not the S-league(never will be). It's actually the Amateur Leagues in Singapore! Especially with EVERYDAY SUNDAY FOOTBALL CLUB which is vying their trade in the ESPZEN league. After managing to win 8 games out of 8, scoring almost 30 goals without letting in more than 10, ESFC has climbed up from being mini-league teams to a team plying their trade in Div 4 this coming season.

The good news however has been marred with players not reporting back for training. 2 has gone AWOL while another is still seeking treatment for an injury which happened during a training session last season.

Nevertheless, everyone in the team is optimistic that there are other players of high quality who are able to replace the missing players.

To ESFC, Bon Voyage!
