The Treble - Buah Nangka - The Loyal & Traitor

It is more than a month when Kelantan FA clinched their first Treble Victory in Kelantan Football History & Malaysian Football History. I hope it is not too late to congratulate Kelantan FA (KAFA) with this sweet victory.

But as always, behind the sweetness there were bitterness. Directly or indirectly. Behind the Treble moment, there were still a few (if not a lot) that require improvement/development.

The Treble
The Red Warriors (TRW) 2012 football campaign varies from the beginning until end of the season. They had low tide & high tide performance. Personally I conclude that the Team had good consistency in the league game, showed a bored final (maybe one of the most boring final game in history) even though finally won the FA Cup, produced a heart trembling scenario of Msia Cup Final (as per TV Commentator comment: this game will be remembered as one of the most interesting Malaysia Cup Final in history).

As one of TRW fans, few things still saddened me during the Malaysia Cup Final.

Kelantan FA 1 - Arbil FC 1 (A Lesson Learnt)

Last Tuesday night, 25th Sept I spent my time watching my favourite football team - Kelantan versus Arbil FC from Iraq. I planned to rest for a while from my daily activity.

It was a fair game. I think Kelantan controlled the game but the lady luck was not with us that night. We had few good chances, but were not able to find the net. Kelantan were trailing behind after Arbil managed to score first. We were down with 1 goal & the clock kept ticking until the 90th minute.

FA CUP Final 2012 - Profit & Loss of The Most Expensive Ticket in Malaysian History

Last Saturday, 19th May 2012, a new history was written in Malaysian Football. Kelantan FA won the Cup for the first time. What is so special regarding this victory is Kelantan has won it simultaneously with the newly introduced design of the said Cup. The Cup size is smaller than the previous design, but it is a big meaning for the whole Kelantan Football Fans. I was there in the stadium & celebrated the win with another 100,000 football fans (estimated figure including Sime Darby supporters).
