Firstly I want to congratulate everyone for bagging this fine victory in this crucial period. I mean, today's opponent are seriously damn strong, despite their lack in numbers. For today, I personally feel that we are almost reaching this "next level" that we always have aspired. The "connection" among team mates, be it on-field and off-field. The passing and runs made, even under pressure. Even though it's not perfectly done, at least the idea is there. Do it a few more times and everything will turn out to be good! During the game, many "shout-outs" are also being made, i think trust is beginning to build among us. Team Goat's power balance are starting to shift! (From the few players we used to depend heavily on to bringing the WHOLE TEAM into the play!) I mean we still depend on the few players la, but at least more variations can be seen.

And one most important thing! Encouragement! No matter how good a player, he will definitely have his "off-days". At times like this, we shouldn't be grumbling, instead, it's duty of us team mates to pull him through this! And today, even the amount of encouragements can still be improved, but I don't hear or see any grumbling from fellow team mates when one of us screwed up. (Particularly when I lose the ball in the midfield on various occasions :x Sorry guys! Will try to work on my stability issue.) Even though at the end of the day, it's still the skills and mentality that counts, encouragements also plays a very big part, particularly on the confidence issue. It won't take too much of your effort to say a little "Nice try", "Well Done", "Never mind try again", but it will have an incredible effect on the affected team mate!

To me, doing my part to help the team win is important, but on a personal basis, I hope to win or lose together as a team. No doubt we join this league to WIN, but I also strongly believed that we joined and stayed cos there's something in the team worth staying for.

Cheers,
Your neighbourhood fighter. -14
