Ang Mohs should not be enlisted because if war breaks out with some Ang Moh country there is no guarantee that they will remain loyal to Singapore.
If war breaks out with Ang Mohs we are finished. They know our tactics since they trained us.

The problem is he signed with Fulham. If he had signed with Man United or Liverpool, it would have been a different story. A sinkie playing for Fulham or Bournemouth would never bring glory to Singapore because Fulham IS never going to win anything.

Does these half breed has citizenship in another country? Is he a Singkieland PR? Or is he a Singkieland citizen. If he is a PR. Just renounce the PR, go get his scholarship etc than come back to Singkieland on employment pass. Heaps of ex PRs do that. And very common amongst the mudlanders tooo. They get subsidised education in Singkieland than when the time comes. Just run away. No Biggie

What good has PAP done for Sg Sports, nothing, even J S winning the Olympic was his family effort.


All the fucking cheebye PAP has done is to push sports to the brink of collapse and then assign lame ducks to rescue to situation. Another fucking cheebye tactic is to import FT and buy medals, and then when it no longer works anymore, throw them oneside. KNNBCCB PAP cheebye chao lampur PUAH CHEEBYE

I've informed the good minister Ng during one of our grassroots sessions that this Davis could be a flight risk. I hope the relevant authorities will take heed and cease to issue him with exit permits from Singapore for any reason.

SINGAPORE: Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam on Monday (Jul 16) congratulated France on winning the World Cup, hailing the country's football system where "every young person is encouraged and supported in developing his or her strengths".
Pointing out that much of the French team grew up in "poor, mainly immigrant neighbourhoods", Mr Tharman said in a post on Facebook that the victory showed what was possible when young people were encouraged to develop their talents.

"It will take a lot more than a World Cup victory, and the unity seen in the celebrations back in France, to overcome the lack of opportunities and long-standing prejudices against those from these poor neighbourhoods," said Mr Tharman.
"But it shows what is possible when a leaf is taken from the French football system, and every young person is encouraged and supported in developing his or her strengths."
He cited the examples of 19-year-old player Kylian Mbappe, who became the first teenager to score in a World Cup final since Brazil's football legend Pele in Sunday's final, as well as Paul Pogba "who many feel was man of the match".
Said Mr Tharman: "Some say it has something to do with these poor neighbourhoods, where there are few ways in which youngsters can enjoy themselves or show their talents.

"As Pogba said, 'there is only football'. It also has to do with the French system of providing qualified coaches in the neighbourhoods, spotting young talents, and sending the best to France’s central football academy."
