[Voldermort]

M. Kumar - the former Singapore midfielder who was dubbed the "Ferret" for his ball-winning abilities for the national football team in the 1970s - died on Saturday after a battle with cancer. He was 69.

Noted for his courage and tough tackling, Kumar was among the pride of Lions who filled the National Stadium to the brim during the Malaysia Cup days.

He is survived by his wife, son, daughter-in-law, daughter and five grandchildren. The wake is held at 41 Lentor Street. The cortege will leave at 5pm today for Mandai Crematorium.

1970s not my problem, wasn't born yet.

My Sinkie national footballers: Fandi Ahmad, Abbas Saad, V Sundramoorthy, Malek Awab, Lim Tong Hai etc.

Things were going well... then Mah Bow Tan came along. You know what happened next.

And now Edwin Tong will repeat the same nonsense.

When Admiral was the official jersey supplier, when Uncle Choo was coach, when the kallang wave and kallang roar were invented because we were actually proud of our national football team which comprised fellow sinkies who held full-time jobs and played for our country at the same time. Not imports, not professionals being paid obscene amounts of money.
