Hot Hot Chicken Shit

What happened to the hype? What happened to now I can start interacting again with my non-Chinese friends? With the recent sellout, one would expect a close to another sell out attendance last night. But I guess Singapoliens would rather curse Mediakop(You'll never come home alone) for not showing it live. Even TNP (The Noose Paper) did no pre-match reports on the Friendly. Come on lah local media more can be done, you can even do a series of players' bio, possible formations to build the hype towards the Malaysian game and not build up the hype 2 to 3 days before.

A win is a win be it scrappy, lucky or handsome. Yes the team needs improvement (every team does as no human is perfect), but why put the boys down instead of encouraging them as what fans should do? So what if you are a paying fan? Does it give you that right? Talk is cheap. If you are so good then you wouldn't be in the stands as a supporter.

Singapoliens would always be hard to please. Tickets sold out, they say stadium too small. Built a big stadium they say white elephant. No live coverage, they show their patriotism. Show live coverage they say its ok RTM1 will show it anyways. Tell them better buy tickets early, they slow slow go. Tickets snapped up within hours, they say kiasu queue up since 10PM the night before and they just want to be in the limelight.

Conclusion:
Comments are like arseholes, everyone has one. No matter what is done, you cannot please everyone for there will always be a wet blanket/black shit sheep. Things are done as such for a reason. The system has been around for ages and yes improvements can be made here and there. Changes need time and you cannot force what you dont like down other's arse throat. Robin Hood is a hero yes but he still committed a crime by stealing.

PS: to my non-malay friends, Hot hot chicken shit is translated directly from a malay proverb "angat angat tahi ayam". It has the same meaning as Semangat 50sen where it means your passion/interest only lasts for a while for you are a pre-mature ejaculator.
