Now Cricket club wanna join the SLeague
There is no stopping the SLeague. Just days after a french and Chinese team joined for 2010 comes news that a cricket club are interested in joining the party.
SCC, Singapore Cricket Club, is a posh place down at the historic Padang and they won the NFL last season, fielding a football team. Who played football.
Now it seems they are interested in joining the SLeague, also I imagine as a football team but who knows in Singapore. Perhaps they may be allowd to play cricket so they can keep their traditions alive. It would be interesting to see how they line up against Aleksander Duric. Certainly the wicket keeper would have to be right behind the stumps and we would probably also see a Silly Point and a Short Leg as well as three or four Slips and a Gulley to guard the far post.
Rumours are now rife that F1, who hold a successful race in Singapore every year, may also want to enter a team next year. Their thinking is that the drivers get bored between races and playing a bit of football would keep them fit.
Sources close to Mabel who serves drinks below the Jalan Besar Stadium suggest that the F1 team would fly their opponents to wherever they may be racing which means we could be seeing SLeague games played in Brazil, Germany and England next season.
Or Mabel has just been sniffing too many empty beer bottles again.
