St Wilfrid - Home of Team GMH

Yo guys,

Yesterday me and Terence went to the St. Wilfrid field to book 3 sessions on the 5 aside artificial turf. The following are the dates and timing. I sincerely believe it is a much better alternative then the cage.

Firstly, it has boundaries, meaning the ball can go out of bounds instead of being stuck in the corner (damn boliao). Secondly, it is much more convenient because it is located beside Boon Keng Mrt. Although it’s a 10 mins walk to the place from the Mrt, it’s definately nearer than the damn cage from Kallang, location wise and walking distance wise. The quality of the turf is, in my opinion, the same as the cage. It is definately bigger and has more space on the flanks. After that still can go eat KFC or Macdonalds!

And most importantly, it costs only $23.20 per 2 hours!! That works out to merely $1 plus per person!

The only drawback is that in the event of a downpour, our money will not get refunded. Considering it is that cheap, I don’t think a lot of people will mind.

So here are the details:

11 March, Sunday - 1-3pm

17 March, Saturday - 1-3pm

25 March, Sunday - 1-3pm


Those were the only available timeslots left.

So pls mark it down on your calendars and keep that mere 2 hours of your life free. Don’t say we didn’t tell you guys in advance.

For Psycho and Ah Du and Sof if you can, pls take leave on those days or try to start work late. It will be super happening.

Terence will be counting the numbers on each FRIDAY, so LET HIM KNOW BY EACH FRIDAY IF YOU GUYS CAN MAKE IT.

(Btw guys, he promised to bring a new kip huip to play soccer with us on those days. The gal he met in Sentosa who shares the same passion for soccer with us. If you are reading this, welcome aboard! I guarantee you will have loads of fun! Terence is working on it as I’m typing this, so let’s all give him moral support! YOU CAN DO IT TALEN!) If you fail, don’t come. Haha...

The best number is 12, because I figured 6 a side is the best, no more no less. So pls don’t call Kangtao Kias along.

This is the start of court-less soccer for good, because frankly the soccer ball is meant to roll on grass, not concrete. It pains the ball and it pains me.

And frankly, I’ve gotten sick of playing at that place.

For those who don’t have boots, now is a good time to invest in a pair. Terence and Bing are already getting new ones.

In the long run, we will get used to playing on the field and in due time, we can play on the 11 a side pitch!

Dawn of an exciting new era.

So if any Lao Jiaos happen to stumble across this blog, ADIOS AMIGOS!

Have fun picking balls from road sides and running the risk of killing some old person. Have fun waiting for ½ an hr for your turn especially if the Calendar Retards decide to come on Sunday instead of the agreed Saturday.

Bye Ah Seng, you will be sorely missed. It was fun while it lasted.

I’m sorry to my nemesis, I didn’t have a chance to say a proper goodbye, but you taught me how someone with Delayed Response Syndrome would react.

We would never find out if Endless was indeed Lulu’s long lost kin.

We would never find out Anthony’s age.

Lawrence, you were maybe the best they’ve got, but your hair puts me off.

We have moved on to Ashton Grove.

The Emirates wasn’t the fortress we hoped it would be.

Overall Head to Head record: Team GMH won 52 Drawn 0 Lost 50

We won.

(Ps: Bye provision shop auntie, thanks for being there when our throats were dry, lips were split. You nourished our soul and gave us strength to carry on. You are my unsung hero.)
