Transfer Windows Closed

Sorry for inaccurate report previously about this issue.

After almost 3 weeks for the teams to re-strengthen their players list, some teams made effort to reorganise their players.
UFC made 10transfers, 5ins and 5outs. However, their transfers didnot involved other teams, meaning players out not joining any team, and players in are also not from any team, as simple as that.
Machanz and Eagles in the other and made a trade, in defensive department. Samuel joined Machanz in the value of Juma to go the opposite way.
There is also a transfer in New Venture because Andrea Ongeta left after finished his IEP, and replaced by a new boy.

Good luck to all for the remaining 4 matches!!!

Sunday Overview

Sunday. Galacticos enter the field against New Venture with high confident but with more cautious not repeat Kelaktu's mistake one day before. Galacticos won by 5-0 by the of this match. BUt they played with 10-men for about 50 minutes when captain Rabbit collected his 2nd yellow from a high-handball. Galacticos if now the only team in the league to keep clean sheets after 3 games. This could prove the worth of best-defender award Celestine got previous season.
The 2nd match between Eagles and Trinity was another title determining match, for both drew with Galacticos before, and beaten the 2 new teams. However, pre-match was disturbed by claims that Trinity will field unregistered players, which is still under investigation. The match went tight as expected, but Eagles proved they are the better side, and a side to be watched. Eagles won 4-2, and that brought them to 2nd spot with same points to Sabah. Sabah are above for 1 extra goal scored. This match saw another incident, where Eagles non-playing-members(manager, subs, fans) were celebrating their goal in the pitch line. An attemp from committee to stop that had also sparked another unhealthy arguement.
After all, the league is good so far after 3 matches. Transfer window is now open for teams to sharpen their line-up. We'll see how things go in few weeks time.

Kelkatu Dropped Out

Kelkatu FC 0 - UFC 1
Saturday, 5pm. Match between Kelkatu FC against UFC was thought by many to an easy for Kelkatu. Newly-formed UFC had conceded 20 in 2 matches, while Kelkatu drew with strongsides - Sabah and Machanz.
Overconfident Kelkatu fielded 5 strikers but UFC defended like Great China Wall in the first 20 minutes. A mistake from Kelkatu's defensive department opened opportunity for Farid to calmly slot a goal for UFC.
Kelkatu maintained the attacking pressure on UFC, but goalkeeper Basil and man-of-the-match Justin shut the goal's mouth pretty well. Match ended 1-0.
Kelkatu is now 2nd from bottom, while UFC just above them with 3 points from this win.

Sabah at the Top of Mountain

Machanz FC 1 - Sabah Fc 2
Saturday, 3pm. The match between 2 previous champions Machanz FC against Sabah was held with prematch talk about the injuries issue in both team. But, they fielded all the available players and the match went tight even without some big names.
Despite Machanz who had more players injured, it was Sabah who lost a player as early minute when AShvin had to be substituted. Jorden opened the scoring for Sabah, follwed by Taha's dribble from leftside of center line past 2 players, and beat 2 more when he cut inside to penalty box and slot the ball past Mohamed for Sabah's 2nd. First half ended with 2-0.
2nd half started with different approach from Sabah where they seem to play it safe to holding on with the 2 goal lead. Lingesh and the gang worked their socks off to get the goal, and Raj scored few minutes before time. BUt it was not enough, and Sabah gained 3 valuable points to make them the obvious favorite for the league title.
Both sides drew with Kelkatu FC before, and had big win against UFC/New Venture to be level before this match.

Professionalism: Celebration

This is not a decision by CFC, nor an agreed situation by board of CFC. This is an opinion from a member that was granted a permission to write in this blog.

In related to the incident on sunday, the match between Eagles and Trinity, some aspect of the incident need to be clarified. This post will also try to explain some of the confusion that is seen in the chat box.
First thing to comment is the Eagles' celebration. In professional football, it is clear that players' who are not CURRENTLY playing in the 11 in the field, should not by any means intrude the pitch area. It includes NOT for celebration, medical reason, what else other negative things(if any).
However, we are being linean in such a way that we understand we don't provide proper medic staff etc to make the situation PERFECT for the league, so some cases is allowable. I mean, a teammate who is not playing may be allowed to bring his injured friend out of the field or anything like that.
However, some unimportant thing (like celebration), players shouldn't be allowed to enter the field. But, the scorer may want to go outside the pitch to celebrate with the subs(and fans, and manager), not the other way round. This should be the way.
It should be the manager's responsibility to understand this task, and make sure the players know what is can, what is cannot.
Second thing to comment, Rabbit involvement in the field for that moment. There has been few versions of stories about his action. However, from management point of view, CFC need to control such celebration to not go overboard, and as a high committee member and the official-on-duty for that match, Rabbit did put his effort to bring the situation into control. There might be some dissatisfaction from the other party, but in this case people should listen to what the official-on-duty asked you to do.

I am not in any power to make decision for this case, but I have suggestion. Eagles' celebration that day shouldn't be repeated in future, and committee can make it clear to EVERYONE about this.
Is there a need to punish Eagles this time? If yes, what kind of punishment? Only for certain players(yellow card for those who intruded?) or the punishment for team? If no, in what way we can make it sure that this will not repeat?
Should Rabbit be attacked for his action that day?
All these are the questions that we all should think about, properly, so that it will benefited all of us, the club, the teams, and the quality of the league itself.

Review: Kelkatu FC 2 Sabah FC 2

Kelkatu FC, back again with mostly the same team as last semester, meets Sabah FC, back with several changes, such as the absence of Sultan, who was awarded the Best Athlete at last semester’s Sport Night. Ahmed had the first few tries in the 6th and 12th minute which both went off-target but it was rookie Amirul who scored the opening goal for Kelkatu 5 minutes later, with a superb pass from Mohsen. Both sides had a few more attempts by Amirul, Mohsen, Safiq and Cipriano but the score line stayed stagnant. Sabah equalized 4 minutes into the 2nd half with a goal by Ahmed. Tompoq’s free kick was blocked out by Ashvind on the line, and Pee Chee received his 2nd yellow card and was sent off. The referee then made a few controversial decisions and issued more yellow cards to Ahmed, Danny Ooi and Ashvind. Ashvind’s conceded free kick was taken nicely by Tompoq, whose deliver was headed in by Amirul, scoring his 2nd goal in his debut match. Taha then took advantage of Hafiz’s blunder when he scored the equalizer for Sabah by firing a long shot goal from the center line during kick off. The game ended with a draw and Amirul was the Man of the Match because of his outstanding performance.

Review: Galacticos 0 Eagles FC 0

The first game of the league kicked off with a match between Galacticos and Eagles, who were unfortunately disqualified from the league last semester due to a dispute. Galacticos had more possession of the ball for most of the first half and JJ, a new installment for the team, had a shot that went wide in the 25th minute. Five minutes later, Amate tried but it was Salim’s free kick that missed a goal by just a few inches when it went slightly over the post. Shortly into the second half, yellow cards were issued to PK and Fejiro after having a dual struggle and also Galacticos’ captain Ralph for unneeded argument with the referee. Michael Owan had a really close on-target shot but it was saved by last semester’s best GK, Joel. Celestine was awarded Man of the Match for his brilliant defending once again.
