Follow-up to S-team Encounter

I appreciate the comments and feedback contributed by our members. It tells me of your enthusiasm about weekend soccer. I thank everyone for saying their piece.

First of all, Clement had already arranged with S-team for the match before he left the country and so we will honour the prior arrangement. When Johnny from S-team called me, the pitch was already booked. So the only alternative was to reject the arrangement and not to change the venue, which would not be the wisest choice as we seek to maintain our team's reputation. But I assure everyone that our next meeting against S-team will be at homeground, which I would bring it up to their captain this coming Saturday.

I understand everyone's concerns and I believe I have the same number of issues as those who live in the west. I guess we should take it positively and make an away win the main focus instead of our own grumbles. Let's be better prepared for the "unfavourable" conditions this time round. I suggest we get a few pet bottles mineral water (1.5l) for drinking and washing up and extra dry clothes plus towel to the match this week.

Please note that the team ball carriers, Jiun Wei and Clement are on holiday. We will need someone else to bring his own ball for the next 2 weeks. I hope anyone who lives near Farrer Park will volunteer, otherwise the alternative would be assign someone to buy a third team ball, which I would have to consult Alex for permission to use the funds and to set a budget.
