    Datuk Raja, jangan beri terlalu banyak alasan!! Be humble, nothing wrong with it. You yang pilih untuk main dan beraksi ketika bulan puasa dan you bersetuju bermain pada jam 11 pagi yang mana waktu itu tidak sesuai dengan 'mentaliti' pemain Malaysia. Jam 11 pagi waktu pemain - pemain 'melepak' selepas training. Waktu itu pada bulan puasa pemain - pemain pasti tidak ada tenaga. Sudah tentu mereka tidak dapat memberikan aksi terbaik. Sudah tentu kena tibai dengan kelab kedua tercorot Jepun. Pendekatan you untuk lawan Chelsea dan sekarang Barcelona kurang tepat Datuk Raja. You sudah tidak ada taktik kerana sandaran dengan 'pemain - pemain saya' sudah tidak menjadi. Sekarang peminat pun dah konfius yang mana jadi keutamaan, Barcelona atau nak lawan Bahrain, Kelayakkan Piala Asia? Rasanya kedua - dua perlawanan you akan gagal, sorry to say...

    Of course Rajagobal wouldn't want to resign. It doesn't take genius to figure it out. Look at his pay checks, you will know the answer!!!

    Let the people in FAM make the decision in the case Dato Rajagopal as they are the people who with consensus decided the road map for the national teams. Knowing the present status of team , yet they decided to try their luck to redeem some pride of winning some matches against clubs in Australia and Japan. But just too bad, it got screwed up and Rajagopal got the blame. What about the decision makers ? Are they not qualified as council members to make decisions ? Politicians , most of the time makes the wrong decisions and get away with it but Rajagopal is the scapegoat now. Get right people to run FAM , then you can see the light at beginning of the tunnel. Selamat Hari Raya and enjoy the Bliss of Ramadhan.

    Nothing else to say. Everybody have already said whatever they want to say from FAM President right down to the poor football fan! (who no one will listen to)
    So Coach Raja, all you have to do is beat China for a start (upcoming friendly) and follow that up with a win v Bahrain and qualify for the Asian Cup 2014. Is that impossible? BTW, it does not matter if we put up a good performance or not as we ONLY need to WIN! Get Malaysia to the Asian Cup & you will be a hero. We will pray that you can do this.

    HD, setuju kontrak Rajagobal ada lagi sampai hujung tahun. Tapi :

    1.Siapa yang bagi kontrak yang amat panjang tempoh masanya sampai ke hujung nyawa (too close to the tournament date)?

    2.Kenapa tiada peruntukan untuk "reassess performance" ie selepas Piala AFF Suzuki yang lepas?

    3.Polisi siapa sebenarnya dahulu yang kata ranking tidak penting?

    4.Jika Subahan yang pantau Rajagobal, siapa yang pantau Subahan?

    5.Ada tengok pasal komen Maurinho tentang taktikal Malaysia di Chelsea TV?

    Untuk FAM, saya harap HD boleh panjangkan soalan berikut :

    1.Di sebalik dok sibuk nak kan ranking top 120 FIFA, tak ada hajat nak naikkan gred Liga Malaysia kah? Tak kan tak tahu gred liga kita berada dibawah gred Liga Singapura dan gred Liga Thailand.

    2.Bukankah lebih baik letak matlamat untuk capai ranking top 16 atau top 24 Asia (16 atau 24 pasukan yang akan bermain di Piala Asia?)

    3.Adakah ada perancangan untuk memberikan hak penyiaran media kepada pasukan-pasukan?

    4.Dimanakah sinergi kerjasama antara jurulatih Harimau Malaya, jurulatih Harimau Malaya dan persatuan jurulatih?

    5.Siapa yang menetapkan KPI Rajagobal dan Subahan?

    p/s tidak semua malah majoriti bekas pemain dan jurulatih negara meminta Rajagobal sendiri yang meletak jawatan dan bukannya dipecat.

    p/s berbaloi kah RM untuk kos pengurusan bila bolos 12 gol tanpa balas di Jepun?

    I agree that Raja is not a coward. He is just a lousy coach. - Mohammad

Those were the words of three-year-old Dasha Ong. National coach Ong Kim Swee has not seen his wife Alodle Donna Derick, Dasha and his seven month old baby Dashie for almost a month. And the words of Dasha just hours prior the kick off between Indonesia and Malaysia in the final certainly motivated Kim Swee. In return, Kim Swee motivated the lads and they won. Read more in today's Mailsport. As expected members of the Press - even those not from the Sports Desk - had numerous questions for Kim Swee. Some wanted Kim Swee to share his experience in Jakarta, others were penning down every word of his when he slammed the organisers for their antics which certainly disturbed him and the boys. But the celebrations must come to an end as Kim Swee and the Olympic lads will now face Syria in the Asia zone Olympic qualifiers tonight (8.45pm). And Kim Swee had this to say: "The players are tired but with the support of the fans, if they come in full force, perhaps that will motivate our...

Ramlan saga - Part 3

UPDATE (May 23, 2012: 12.06pm): Dilema JKR, 'dua' ketua pengarah - this was brought to my attention. Read here for more. ----- I first wrote about the effort to remove National Sports Institute director general Dr Ramlan Aziz in March - as seen here . Then I wrote about the same subject again early May . I was invited to be a guest for this week's Kafe Sukan but had to decline as the recording was done on Sunday - the same day I left the country. Apparently Ramlan's predicament was discussed. Despite receiving numerous SMS-es - for and against what was discussed - I will refrain from commenting as I have yet to view the show. I have also been told there are efforts to get certain people to replace Ramlan. To me that is secondary. I have still not obtained the answers to these questions; 1. According to the NSI Act, only the minister can hire or fire the director general. Has the minister issued such a directive? 2. According to the country's Lab...

What went wrong with KL SEA Games?

Image
A magical sight was seen at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil yesterday as KL2017 ended with Malaysia finishing as overall champions. - Bernama 145 gold medals. It's the best Team Malaysia has ever achieved since the inception of the SEAP Games in1959. The 29th edition of the SEA Games in Kuala Lumpur ended yesterday. The opening ceremony dazzled those at the stands and viewers at home while the performances during the closing ceremony yesterday jogged plenty of musical memories to many. Our athletes, the real superheroes, brought smiles through their heroic display. They made everyday a happy day. A majestic shot of Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin by Ghazali Kori (Harian Metro). Kudos to the officials - from the coaches, the National Sports Institute and National Sports Council - for their hard work in ensuring our athletes perform to their best. But it was not all memorable. From 16 athletes downed with food poisoning to a bus driver being caugh...
