Arema Out Of Pocket
Arema's game with Persib Bandung tomorrow has been postponed. The reason given is to allow Indonesia Super League players to join up with the national team training ahead of their Asian Cup Qualifier against Saudi Arabia next weekend.
Trouble is no one told Arema about it till they arrived in Bandung!
As you can imagine the club are well pissed and demanding someone somewhere refund their not insignificant expenses they have incurred on a wasted trip.
They say they are out of pocket to the tune of $21,000 after forking out on transport from Malang to Surabaya, flights from Surabaya and hotels in Bandung.
Some of the Arema players decided to put their unexpected freetime to good use. Rather than traipse round the factory outlets or queue for outrageously expensive brownies they turned up at the Arsenal Soccer School in Bandung to say hi.
