[yet another humiliating defeat] Singapore beaten 3-1 by Timor-Leste, putting Young Lions on brink of SEA Games elimination

The qualification round merely reduced the large number of eligible nations from 47 to 24 for the Asian Cup finals. That means more than 1/2 of the entrants made it to the tournament. S'pore had to pip HK and India as the 2 strongest contenders in our group. We didn't have to deal with the likes of Japan, South or North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia etc. or even the South East Asian powerhouses like Thailand, Vietnam or Indonesia.
 
Why are Sinkies expecting so much of retards ?
The 20 odd national footballers are the most talented that we possess, which is not to say that there are no better players in S'pore. Many of the most promising teenage footballers I played with or against while in school, never turned professional.
 
There was a time back in 1980, that S'pore beat North Korea 3-1 and China 1-0 in the Olympic Games qualifying round for Asia. The talent is out there, but far too many promising S'poreans give up on a career in football after NS and a university education.
