Match Day 3

The beginning of the fakers’ 09/10 season went off to a dismal start with a 0-1 loss to FC MUSCLES.

However, the team has shown significant progress defensively. It is much better organized and clearly, Chin wee added the steel that our defense badly need.

However, a defensive lapse in the first half from the tough tackling central defender cost us the goal that separates the two sides. The mistake leave an obvious taint on Chin Wee’s otherwise perfect rating on match day 3.

Interestingly, some might disagree, but the goal seems to closely resemble Lee Cong Vinh goal that knock Singapore out of the recent AFF cup semi finals, not to mention, Chin Wee looked like the disillusioned Ismail Yunos in the process. While that goal broke the heart of many Singaporean, Chinwee’s mistake gave us someone to blame for the lost.

However, all is not lost, every failure must be seen as a stepping stone to success.
Clearly, the midfield displayed good passing, stringing passes around and making a fool of FC MUSCLES players in front of their own entourage of scantily-clad female fans, probably winning some accolades from them in the process.

In the attacking third, the striking punch is still lacking. Even with the inclusion of jianzong, dubbed the next “berbatov” by teammates in the starting lineup, all the attack could do was pull a few shots into row Z. However, the second half substitution of speedy striker Daoliang did gave the attack a new dimension but no goals.

The game also show a high level of display of sportsmanship from the two team which compete fairly despite an incompetent referee that created many controversies.

Clearly missing were the fury temper of the vice captain Hee Mingkai and the reactive style of flamboyant winger Tan Eng Hui who manage to keep temper under control.

Defensive midfield workhorse Clive in particular gave FC MUSCLES players’ overwhelming physical advantage a snide insult by running circles around their players even though he seems to be only 1/3 their size. Clearly Clive must have reminded some of us of the resilient style of Barcelona central defender Carles Puyol. A potential first choice defensive midfielder in the making.

Weakness in the air is badly exploited by the flank play of the opposition as they exploited our aerial limitations through the corner kicks and cross. An area we can look forward to working on in Yuhua primary school, aka Carrington, in the weeks ahead.

A rather good result considering the quality of possession we had and the lack of supporters (female) in the stand.

FULLTIME: Truefakers 0-1 FC muscles

Add: KC failed to mention his spectacular 30yards shot which ended in a throw-in.NICE TRY!

From JianZong (Chairman of yuhua zone1 RC youth committee)

The power of encouragement

It has been very encouraging to see development of the team since our inaugural training session on 14th September 2008. We have come a long way.

The team has improved tremendously in terms of teamwork as well as in footballing techniques. Our passing has improve so much, in the last session, the number of times coach had to stop the pay to correct us can be counted with one hand.

But what’s more encouraging is to see individuals in particular, Mingkai and Chinwee showing great initiative in the organization of events and the team administration. More leaders like them are needed to make this team work.

A few good men cannot make a great team. A great team is made up of many leaders.

It takes the effort of more than individuals to make any organization work. I strongly believe that this initiative must come from within. A common desire to make this team work.

Therefore, I believe in the power of encouragement.

Both on and off the pitch, I believe that we must encourage one another, so that both a sense of belonging and initiative can be cultivated.

Constructive criticism is much appreciated; focus must be on the issue not the person.

Some of us who have been in the army may be deceived to believe that command and control remains crucial to success of organization, I beg to differ. It is too tedious, and need too much supervision, not worth the effort.

Initiative is the key to organisation success,initiative of leaders is what sustain the functioning of a team of gentleman and leaders - fully capable and full of potential for greater things.

This team aims to develop strong leadership, and there are many leaders in this team, with potential awaiting to be unleashed. But at the moment the two who has seize the opportunity to develop those potential has been Chinwee and Mingkai.

This team creates a fertile nursery for the grooming of leaders.

To progress and not stagnate at where we are now, more of such altruistic individual must come forward to make our activities happen, to take initiatives, on and off the pitch.

Leaders steer our dreams and hope.

While we remain focus on footballing excellence, take a minute out and consider the administrative foundation that this training rely on. Who tirelessly called for the trainings? Who coordinated all the trainings? And finally what do you think you can do for the team? Are you doing enough? What have you done?

As you make efforts to make the team better by a little bit, the team makes your life a little bit better as well. What goes around come all the way back around.

I hope the power of encouragement drives the initiative within each of us. Then let our initiative drive our abilities!

Working together

A little rule of thumb that I hope may work in the team to preserve harmony - Always contribute before you criticize. Criticism is essential but they come in many form. The “shouting-in-the-stands” type and the “this-is-how-we-can-do-it-together” type, you decide what works better.

Famous philosopher Plato said this, “a wise man speaks because he has something to say; a fool speaks because he has to say something.”

You decide who you are.
