RH 4-2 KE7

You must be thinking..."huh? i thot 3-2?" ... but im taking into account that we had one ball tt was cleared whilst it was INSIDE the KE7 net. So..yah.

A powerful header by Jerome, which was fed an insanely beautiful assist by Thaddeus enabled RH to climb back to 2-1 after being clobbered by the beast of KE7 who scored the first 2 goals.

Boosted by the goal, RH scored another one later through KeeYong who has been proving himself to be RH's Valencia and our terror down the left flank.

A penalty by Safar, in a bid to make up for his penalty miss in the IFG for Science, brought the score up to 3-2!!

Confident passing throughout the pitch as well as a tight defence after the first 2 goals allowed us to clock another win.

Guys, don't let this get to your heads, the ball is round. However, at the same time, use this win to propel your confidence in our hall and in the belief that we can achieve great things this year if we stick together as a team.

BEWARE CLAUDINE.

In the recently concluded Female Soccer IHG, though we didn't perform as well as we would have liked, but one of our members have earned RH the dubious honour of being the most vicious hall in NUS.

Cue Claudine --- The ONLY person to get carded for the entire carnival on Sunday for a bone-crunching, jaw-dropping, earth shattering tackle on some poor unfortunate victim.

Guys...This is one woman not to be trifled with.

Annual General Meeting

Calling ALL members of the Raffles Hall Soccer Team. Let's meet tomorrow, Thursday, 10pm at the upper lounge. It will last approximately 45 minutes. We will be discussing about the friendlies coming up, training and any other things you guys have been too shy to talk about (coming out of the closet, can't stand Thaddeus, etc.)

DONT BE LATE. For every 10 minutes late, you have to treat the team to FIVE Chrysanthemum Teas.

RH 1-2 SH (FEMALE)

So you think this is solely a male soccer blog eh!? You're wrong!!
Due to lack of writing material due to a lack of male trainings....and matches, I've decided to include the female friendlies as well... Shameless advertising to get the blog numbers up on my part I concede.

RH started the match well with a fantastic lineup that included the famous referee - Me - against the Oranjes.

We were able to convert a lone chance through a fantastic shot by Star player Tiffany who was easily the best player of the match. Sheares...not wanting to give up....equalised just before the half.

I must add that SH's coach was the famous four lunged korean Minwoo of IHG fame who famously outpaced Ex-RH Captain Jack, thus putting him to shame... More info can be found on THEIR blog, you just have to google it.

Anyway, a corner by the Oranjes was converted by RH into the back of our net. 2-1!

As it is, I biasedly gave RH a freekick near their goal (shhh) but Tiffany was unable to convert it.

Oh well.... If you want to see the RH female soccer babes in the flesh, come down this Sunday to support them!! =)

Msg me for more details.

100 postsss!! And Female soccer IHG.

Amazingg.....how much free time we have. The blog has reached its 100th post, officially making it RH's most obscure popular blog!!

I wanna thank all you loyal fans of the RH soccer team as well as all past contributors. Of course, I'm writing this coz I have a terrible toothache and I can't sleep.

Anyway, female soccer's IHG is this coming Sunday starting from about 10am. So guys who wanna drool over our lovely RH female soccer team or ogle at the girls from other halls, please turn up and show your support for your sister sport.

And of course, you needn't ask....your favourite manager will be there --- me.

RH 2-2 Some Pasir Panjang Club Again

Yes, this game is still fresh in my mind, unlike my previous post which was long overdue. I had better things to do in Turkey.

Anyway, in the exciting rematch against the same Pasir Panjang club, they managed to open the scoring just after the kickoff. However, a plucky RH team picked themselves up to equalise just before the 1st half through a beautifully taken free kick THREE FEET away from their goal by our new import --- ex-SAJC captain --- Louis.

Of course, the man-of-the-match was awarded to Thaddeus Kan for his beautiful 2nd goal. A sweet left legged shot into the top corner of the net from outside the penalty box. Even the opponents had to applaud.

However, in order to give others a chance, and not because he was tired or shag or whatever, he subbed himself out. Thus, the opponents were able to score another (Is it an own goal by Khairul?), thereby leveling the score at 2-all.

It is to be noted however, that Raffles Hall has not lost in 3 games. A remarkable feat considering the name of our blog.

RH 3 - 2 KR

WAaaaaddD!?

That's right. WE WON.

Although I can't remember much...What's important is that I played.

Oh, 2 goals courtesy of Sexy Karthik and one from our captain Wuyao. And a cheap goal conceded by Kaixiang.

And, a stellar performance by Shaun Goh. =)

Of course, this win wouldn't have been possible if not for Jack and Safar and Shengjie, and Keeyong and duno hu else not turning up. HAHA.

Watch out for these animals!!

I was with Shaun today when he duly informed me that Singapore is host to 2 different kinds of squirrels....

The err..Plantain Squirrel and the SLANDER squirrel. It is the latter that I am concerned about. It is popularly known that this specific variant of squirrel has no friends in the animal kingdom and we can easily see why.

Together with Outlaw Otter and Malign Monkey, Slander Squirrel and his gang roams the forests of singapore and are highly sought after by the SPCA for crimes against other animals. If you see him, give the SPCA a ring at 62875355.

Here we see Slander squirrel slandering someone .... who is obviously barking up the wrong tree.

Thaddeus the Fortune Teller.

RH 2 - 2 TH.

You will see what I mean. =)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy New Year Guys and Girls reading this blog!!

After a long hiatus, the blog is back in action and it's going to be even bigger and better this year...

Anyway, star blogger and prolific writer --- Me --- am back from a vacation in chilly Turkey and will, in good time, update the blog about the KR match in which we won. Yes...WON.

Stop rubbing your eyes. WON.

So ya, I guess we just have to change the blog name....or not. I guess the name does have an endearing quality to it plus it serves to remind us of our humble beginnings.

We're gonna accomplish big things this year. Just wait and see.

Here's wishing you a belated Merry Christmas and a belated Happy New Year!
