and we're left with 4 games to go!

yes, after the game against young lions at jalan besar, we're currently top on the table. With a 12th minute goal from a free kick by Indra, we secured all 3 points! now, we are left with 4 games against Woodlands Wellington, Sengkang Punggol, Singapore Armed Forces FC and Balestier Khalsa. Of course, out of this four, the most exciting would probably be the one against SAF! Still, all four games are equally important so all the best to the protectors! FIGHT ON!

we'll come back strong!

sorry for the lack of updates. finally can update cause it's school holidays.
home united has been competing in 4 different competitions, namely Sleague, AFC cup, RHB Singapore Cup and the League Cup. Shall talk about the Sleague first then!

We played 2 away matches, one against Dalian and the other against Gombak United. i can't comment much cause didn't watch the 2 matches, but we won Dalian 6-0 and lost to Gombak 1-0. So that leaves us 6 points behind both SAF and Super Reds, with Tampines, 3 points behind, hot on our heels. Sleague is on the hold now since the world cup qualifiers are going on now. 5 of our players are in the national team, so all the best LIONS! RAWR, haha. anyway, although 6points behind the leaders, Home United won't be going down so easily. hopefully, we'll come back strong and win as many matches as possible to tighten the race! (:

AFC Cup. Home United is through to the quarter finals! quite old news ah? heh. AFC cup's on the hold too. It's the knock out stage next. Our next match would be away on the 16th of September, against Dempo, a team from India. And the 2nd leg would be on the 23rd of September.
ALL THE BEST HOME UNITED! :D

RHB Singapore Cup. Again, we are through to the quarter finals. Think the last update talked about this. We won Dalian 5-1 away and the next match would be against Tampines Rovers away. oh manz. quite a difficult match! so we'll wait and see what happens when that day comes! hopefully, the odds will be in our favour! WOOHOO.

League Cup. Just for those who haven't heard of this competition, the League Cup is the second major cup competition in Singapore. It keeps the different clubs occupied while the Sleague is on hold, and when the world cup qualifiers are going on. Sadly, Home united is out of the competition already. We drew with Gombak away 1-1 but lost to them at home, 0-1 by a penalty. Home united played without our national players and Peres and Subramani. Although missing key players, we still played well in the first half until Gombak was given a penalty. Morale was high when we came back from the second half but it was just not our day. We didn't make a comeback, maybe cause Gombak was playing a very defensive game and the referee was making a lot of wrong decisions. OH WELL, i personally feel that home united has tried their best and played a good game, so even if we lost, i'm still proud of them!

Perhaps because we have so many competitions in hand, Home United has not been performing their best... the players should be physically tired. BUT! it's not over. We'll definitely come back strong.

GO HOME UNITED!

to our dear taggers,
enough is enough. i agree with dark. we have done nothing to offend anybody. i don't feel that we are arrogant, or that our players are arrogant. We are just passionate supporters of home united and we are proud of our team. There's nothing wrong with that so once again, i'll appreciate it if we don't have others coming here to criticise Home United. We welcome constructive criticism but if you want to criticise us and scold/offend Home United, please think.

Breaking the losing streaks

Nothing beats winning hands down to break that losing streak. Winning 5 goals to 1 is no easy feat and winning by such a big margin at an away game is definitely a confident booster. It has all the ingredient of a amazing game, four goals in the first half, even better than the Man United - West Ham game last weekend. And that is exactly what the Protectors did today at Queenstown Stadium. Our boys rose from two consecutive defeats to demolish Dalian Shide 5-1. The Americans must be reeling with frustration for not signing Indra who single handedly slotted in four goals for the visitors. Ludovick scored the final goal of the day on the 52nd minutes. What more can a fan ask for?

Now it is time to ride the wave and continue knocking out one competitor at a time till we regain our rightful place at the top of the league.

it was just not our day...

home united played well in the first half and came back with 1 goal just before half time. when they came back for the second half, we equalised with a wonderful goal by Naruphol Ar-Romsawa, our promising young player. but everything went down when tampines scored their 3rd goal, which looked offside to me but apparently not to the linesman and referee. after the goal was given, the complexion of the game totally changed. well, it could have been different when shahril ishak was brought down in the penalty box but was denied when the penalty was not given as the referee deemed it as a dive. he even got a yellow card! earlier on in the match, ludovick was brought down too but still no penalty. the final score was 2-4 to tampines.

well, 2 losses already, but it's only 12 games played so far. we must cheer home united on. as i said, the fans must always be behind home united.

HOME UNITED!!

reply to taggers

well, i'm blogging to reply the taggers on the blog.

BOI: most of the "professional" bloggers for the home united blog are busy. as for me, i'm not really in any position to talk about the details of the AFC cup cause i might say something that is not reliable and accurate. that will make it worse, wouldn't it? furthermore, i'm more of a fan commenting on the matches and giving as much details as possible. dan (another tagger) is right to say thast you can find details from the sleague website http://www.sleague.com , or may i recommend the official home united website, here's the link http://www.hufc.com.sg/ You can find frequent updates of home united and the details of their recent games played. thanks.

Outsider: firstly, we do not welcome people who tag negative messages of home united. we would rather have constructive comments. please do not say things that has no evidence and are purely just personal comments that attacks the club. i would appreciate it if you would stop tagging these messages that will cause conflicts. as a fan of home united, i really can't take this lying down, i'm sorry if we gave you the idea that we believe we're undefeatable, i guess you can only say that we have the upmost confidence in home united. what is wrong with being able to fully support and be proud of your team? since when were we arrogant? if we work hard, we definitely can be proud of our achievements. look at cristiano ronaldo of manchester united, he can be proud because he works hard, plays well and scores fantastic goals! why can't the fans and players celebrate home united's achievements? yes, we have lost one match in the sleague, but why should we keep our heads low? it's not the end of the season, home united is not giving up that easily. maybe this will even spur us on. well, that's all i want to say.

justme: i agree that fans are supposed to support their team win, lose or draw. but please don't forget, fans are humans too. sometimes, it's hard to not complain. perhaps the boo-ing was going a bit too far but sometimes, it just can't be help with frustration and all. humans don't think straight at times like these. yes? i'm saying all these based on your tag, whether it's 100% true, i don't know but either way, i believe, no matter what, home united fans will always be behind the players. (:

i just have a bit more to say, i didn't blog about the game against balestier khalsa because i didn't attend/watch the match against balestier khalsa so i'm in no position to blog about anything. so dear readers, if you want details, please click the above links! sleague website and home united official website. :D AND, good news for home united. THE PROTECTORS ARE MOVING ON TO THE QUARTER FINALS OF THE AFC CUP.

ALL THE BEST HUFC! :D

ps: our next sleague match is against tampines rovers, please come down to bishan stadium today (saturday) to give your full support. (:
