Room for one more?
With the creation of South Tangerang as a new political entity earlier this year, now comes news that the area will have its very own football team.
Persitangsel is the name. No stadium yet, probably no team yet or coaches or players.
There are of course two other sides in the Tangerang (a suburb of Jakarta in the manner of Watford or Penrith). Persita and Persikota. Both will play in the IPL in the upcoming season if they get round to registering in time.
Persitangsel will have to wait a while. Beneath the ISL and the IPL is Division 1 and Division 2, both of which are due to start over the next week or so.
Why is this of interest? It isn't really except if the team does get off the ground they could well lay claim to being my local side.
