opinion

hey guys..

firstly, id like to thank hatta for coming down even though he was sick and had a paper the next day..id say he put in alot of effort as much as he possibly could..
secondly, to all those with injuries like adil with his ankle, zarir with..alot of injuries just hope that you guys would recover quick for the next match
thirdly, just would like to say that even though we lost i believe we should keep our heads up and not be too down about it..i kinda noticed that mamat was looking very down after the match and i thought that maybe he felt he was abit responsible for the outcome..on my part playing nearest to him i should have guided him more..but of course im not used to that cause all the while ppl iv partnered in defence like Aidil, Adib and Nasir have been the ones helping me out..i guess its time i step up for the team, insyaAllah..

ok i have to agree with nasir..but i would think that mamat and my bro would be playing for us more regularly as my bro has expressed interest (haha sounds familiar) to play keeper for us..i dunno maybe you guys can consider that or maybe just add him to the team..i think additional players would benefit us..

i would prefer hatta on the right wing cause he would add pace to the right side and abu hopefully would produce his cage-like skills on the pitch to feed ahmad..our midfield is definitely strong with raihan and adil but we have to help them to help us..

i showed that we are all rusty in fitness or skills or teamwork but we should take responsibility to improve ourselves namely fitness..its the first game after a long while so i think we must really look forward to the future and to an improved performance..

Next Match

Date:
Time:
Venue:
Colours:

The club was founded by a group of Malay boys from Raffles Institution's 2001 & 2002 graduating batches who enjoys each other's company as well as sharing a strong special bond that is soccer.

After years of playing recreational soccer matches on the school's astro turf & basketball court, it was decided that they establish a full-fledged competitive 11-a-side team worthy of challenging any team that stand in their way. In 2001, a newly-formed unnamed soccer club comprising of those boys emerged and played their first 11-a-side friendly against Beatty Secondary. From then on, there was no turning back.

Countless other friendly matches followed. However, being unnamed seems very amatuer-ish, and to fully leave behind their fledgling status, the name ESMSCC was born. The acronym, that stands for English Speaking Malay Soccer Cultural Club, was originally conceived during one of their casual discussions in their school-based clubhouse. The oxymoronic term of the name seems befitting at that time and was an identity that had reflected the majority of the club members.

In mid 2002, the club officially took on the name and came up with their very first team jerseys comprising of sky blue top and white shorts. The colours chosen reflect the club's aim to play resembling the fluidity of water as well as advocating match-fairness. Despite being separated into different junior colleges, the team still managed to find time to play together even throughout their national service. Close ties between team members are not only on-field, but off-field as well, with casual hang-outs, gym sessions, hari raya gatherings being some examples. Despite being predominantly Malay, the team has always adopted a selection policy that trancends race as well as age. Players of other races as well as those outside their batch are often invited and welcomed by the team. Through such diversification, the team grows even stronger and awaits the various challenges ahead.

With the establishment of Bolasepak RI Football Club in 2006, ESMSCC serves as the biggest and most active feeder service for the squad, providing 11 of the 25 current members in the roster. Despite the integration...
