Match Report:

A mix-up by SSC nearly caused the match to be disrupted and the match was shifted from Serangoon Sec to Woodlands Sec in just 3 hours.

Team SausageFest started brightly with some confident display of passes among the players. Player-manager Sir Benjamin Ang was included in the starting line-up wearing the latest Adidas PREDATOR®_X, worn by a list of star players , including Steven Gerrard.

Unfortunately for Sir Benny, his Predator's debut was over in just 10mins due to an accidental tackle by the opponent, leaving him with an strained ankle. Sir Benny looked crest-fallen as he left the pitch.

Team SausageFest then conceded an early goal but regained composure and we defended well despite the unceasing attacks from our counterpart. SausageFest scored an important goal just before half-time against the run of play. A mix-up in the box left foxy Zack to capitalise on it and poked home his second goal in as many games.

1-1 Half Time

Sir Benny made 5 substitutions after the break and Josh came just in time to join us in the second half. The first 10min was pretty even. A moment of brillance from Ahsik came as he treaded a sublime ball to Josh. Sensing the keeper was out of position, Josh tried a long shot but was the ball was kept away instantly by the opponent's hand. The referee pointed to the spot after a moment and Jason Chua made a last min decision to take the ball from the spot. The players had their hearts in their mouth as Bosingwa Chua geared up for his shot. Jason drived his shot ferociously into the centre of the net and the keeper had no chance despite the inital slight contact. Jason scored his first ever goal for his club. Congrats!

Team Sausages was up 2-1 in the 55th min.

The armour was down for Team SausageFest after the well-taken penalty and SausageFest was punished with two quick goals in succession resulting from some mix-up between our defenders and keeper.

3-2 to Blue Cantebury Utd

An interesting play between our creative midfielders Benedict and James resulted in a ball straight into our new guest striker Ahkumeow's feets just ouside the box. Ahkumeow treaded a tight through ball to the right, Josh's first touch left his defender for dead and afterwhich a soft half volley saw the ball into the right corner of the net with the keeper looking stranded.

3-3

Jason Chua replaced Josh in the last 10minutes in a bid to increase his goal tally. Both sides were looking comfortable for a draw when a repeated mix-up in the 80th min gifted Blue Cantebury with an easiest of chance to seal the victory.

4-3 to Blue Cantebury Utd

Note: Congrats to Lin Jie for his outstanding performance on the field today. He literally lowered the scoreline and earn a twisted ankle in return!

We welcome our latest sausage Victor Chan, coming out of retirement and scored a curling shot past the helpless keeper. (Assisted by Leon)

Well done Sausages for the nice passing game and our defenders for their fearless attempt to block out the endless barrage of shots. Good linkup and we actually had more passes then we did last game.

We have 28 players on the list and there were only 7 players on the field today. Something to think about guys! Having at least 11 players on the field is also a form of respect for our opponent who paid the same amount of money and hoping to get some challenge out of it. I'll leave the rest to our manager Sir Benjamin Ang.

Onwards Sausages! Next match will be 2 weeks from now...

SAUSAGES UNITE!!!

2008-12-24T07:33:00.006-08:00

Hey Sausages!!! Sorry for the long break. I can't manage to book a field for our match. Simply put, we have opponents but no field. Must be the holiday period. Christmas + Holidays = Increased Soccer Time. (Ang's Theory of Soccerlitis, Sir Benjamin Ang 2008) Hohoho... I'm gonna book for Suns during Janaury so please keep yr suns free! Since this is my first post, I'll give your a little introduction. I'm the manager of your team, and I'm proud to be helping all you sausages out! (Although the pay is crap! ...yayaya>.<) My past achievements include 2 Epl trophies, 2 FA Cups and being the finalist for the league cup and Champions League. All of this were achieved within the short span of 2 years. Clement, Zhi Hong, Jason, Joshua and Desmond can vouch for this. My philosophy is simple: Believe in the team. Regardless of your skill, fitness or ability, I believe all of us can play free-flowing champagne football. I want to see passes, dribbles and full-blooded clean(yes, jason) tackles than will arouse the crowd and keep them coming and coming for our matches. I believe the greatest respect that one can receive is praise and acceptance from his/her opponent. (Case in point: Ronaldo received a standing ovation from the Old Trafford crowd during an exciting champions league tie between Man Utd and Read Madrid a few years ago. Although in this case Ronaldo scored the goals to knock Man Utd out, the Old Trafford crowd still gave him their adoration and respect. Now that's true respect!) I want all of us to turn up with enthusiasm whether it's rain or shine or whether we're winning or losing. With 1 min to go, we might be winning 10-0 or even losing 100-0, I still want all of us to be fighting for every single ball like our lives depend on it. Think like Champions, Act like Champions, Play like Champions and Fight like Champions!

PS: On the 31th Dec, evening time, we're having barbecue and steamboat at Garrick's House. I'll be contacting all of you for your attendance. Please take note of this event.

Cheers!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Signed, Your ever loving manager.

Missing Sausage - Clement Chua

2008-10-08T10:33:00.000-07:00

Do keep a look out for this missing sausage! AWOL after his first debut. Favourite hang out places include Bukit Panjang Plaza and AL Ahzhar.

And Sir Benjamin Ang, where are our long overdue match reports...

VICTORIOUS!

2008-10-01T03:28:00.000-07:00

Just when everyone thought that Arsenal would have thrashed Hull at their own Emirate Stadium, Hull came out with an unexpected victory. A victory that shows everybody that not everyday is a sweet sunday. Hull, a smaller team with no name, killed arsenal fans straight in their face, sent them back home with grumpy faces and all. Feelings of the Hull fans couldn't be further described. They have tasted a great victory over one of the big 4s. Will there be more to come? Stoke had also caused the world to lose money with a draw at Anfield. So can anyone tell me who to bet on next time? I totally have no idea. Football is round, we players control the game so if we believe we can win, we WILL win. Confidence is very important.

Players of the mighty pinks, if you happen to read this post accidentally, please have faith in yourself for the match on this coming Sunday. For the fans of Sausagefest, we are having a match with a very strong team on this Sunday so we will be glad if you are able to turn up to give us your morale support. I repeat, CONFIDENCE and DETERMINATION are the keys to success so keep yourself physically and mentally strong for this coming match. We will fight on from the starting blow of the whistle to the end of the 90 minutes with extra time. Keep it going, my fellow sausages! Strive for greater success and to victory here we come!

Rome isn't built in a day. Keep the team spirit high and going! OINK OINK!

Individual Performances

2008-09-28T23:18:00.000-07:00

Jon: Despite a shaky first half, never gave in and put up a solid performance in the 2nd half, cutting out all dangerous balls.

Wilfred: Made several spectacular tackles and looked assured at the back alongside Wonderbra despite missing his regular partner Godfather.

Wonderbra: Just as his name suggests, he enveloped his opponents and marked them tightly, ensuring the security of the defense. Pushed up to offer great support to the midfield too.

Kian Seng: Never-ending runs up the flank. Unfortunate not to score, hitting the post. As a testament to his work-rate and hunger, had cramps in both legs late in the 2nd half, yet came on to play again after a short rest.

Chris: Showed great initiative in pushing up, and displayed good dribbling skills as well. Was the victim of several crunching tackles but was never unfazed.

Lester: The Makalele of the team. Full of running and bite, ensuring that the defense was well protected. The engine of the midfield.

Wei Jie: Despite it being his first game, showed good understanding with Lester in the midfield and put in a solid game.

Sara: The match-winner was cool and composed at all times, spreading the play and controlling the tempo of the game.

Martin: The most experience player in the team, he constantly kept the opposing team's midfielders under pressure, and supported the strikers ably with his box to box play.

Ben Ang: The player-manager showed great pace, often beating one or two players on the flanks on one of his mazy dribbles. Kept the opposing defense unsettled. Tactics were spot on

Nugget: Showed great positioning and pace to be in the right place to score two goals. As usual his freakish pace and pressuring from up front created mistakes from the opponents.

ZS: Unlucky not to score. Showed touches of brilliance and good understanding with fellow attackers. Look to him to break his goal drought next match.

Ken Tan aka Pussy: Despite not being match-fit, gave it his all and showed promising touches. Will surely get better with more matches

Zack: Finally broke his duck with a well taken goal, and then proceeded to celebrate rather too exuberantly for a goal that only made the score 1-2. Was fulling of running and came close to scoring his 2nd on several occasions.

Bennett: Critics are running out of superlatives to describe this superb player. With 2 goals and 3 assists in 3 games, he is clearly the star man. Do you have him in your fantasy league team?

Match Report: Team Sausagefest vs SFA (4-3)

2008-09-28T22:34:00.000-07:00

In an earlier match report, I mentioned that in every team there is a turning point, a defining moment. The moment has arrived, but it was almost not to be.

From the first minute of the game, the hopes of the Sausages were dealt a heavy blow. Lack of cohesiveness and a slice of bad luck led to a goal for the opponents. Nobody knew what to say. However, undaunted, the Sausages pressed forward, and were the better team. An equaliser was on the cards.

Then, another blow. On just their second attempt at goal, SFA scored again. Clinical finishing or another big slice of luck. Yet the Sausages' heads did not drop. A superb dribble by Bennett set up Zack for his first goal of the campaign. The momentum was with us.

However, the footballing gods are cruel, and just before halftime the worst thing happened. If the first two goals were bad, their third goal was akin to ripping the heart out. A lesser team would have crumbled, but not these brave Sausages.

A good start was needed in the 2nd half, and that was what we got. Within 5 minutes we had pulled one goal back. A surging run by player-manager Ben Ang and intricate passing resulted in a cross by Bennett that winger Leon converted with ease at the far post. The Sausages surged forward, wings on their boots. The equaliser was scored in similar fashion, with Bennett and Leon once again linking up. However, the players did not celebrate much. They wanted the win. However time was running out, and the opponents were content to pack their defense and go for a draw.

We pressed and pressed forward, never believing that the win was beyond us. A wise man once said that the juice is worth the squeeze, and so the Sausages squeezed, with every ounce of strength in their bodies. And the juice finally came. A goalmouth scramble resulted in the ball falling to lanky midfielder Sara's path. Trapping the balling with consummate ease, and in the face of onrushing defenders, he did not panic, and volleyed the ball. His aim was true, and the ball sailed into back of the net, an unbeatable shot. What happened next was a uninhibited display of emotion and joy that I best not describe, as it resembled kindergarden kids on a sugar rush.

Yes, on that faithful day, the Sausages had turned a corner. They now had savoured the taste of victory, and like cocaine and heroin, it will only make them want more. Onwards Sausages!!

Man of the Match: Bennett. With 3 assists in this game, he tore the SFA defense to shreds with his marauding runs down the wing. The focal point of Team Sausagefest's attack.

Notable Performances: The whole team. Everybody gave their all, fighting for evey ball and never saying 'fuck lah die'.

Pitch Performance: With several balls flying over the fence, the stadium organizers should install a higher fence or allow a exit near the field for easy retrieval. Other than that, the grass was soft and there were few potholes.

Cya all for the match this coming sunday. Lets turn up early to have a good warm up session before the match and fight for the first win of the season!

Matches can be won or lost before the game starts - in the team warm ups. From the moment the whistle blows, players can be chasing to get in a vital tackle, sprinting on to a through-ball or leaping above an attacker to make a clearance. They will only be ready and able to do it if they are properly warmed up.

About 25mins of warm-up is all that is necessary - to get the heart and lungs working and muscles warm and relaxed.

2 Stages of warm up

Stage 1

Moving Joints - Slow circular movements of al your joints first in one direction then the other: ankles, then knees, hips, wrists, elbows and shoulders. The neck should only be moved in semi circles.

Stage one will get u mobile!

Stage 2

Gentle Aerobics - Gets your blood flowing and raise your muscle temperatures.

Includes jogging, passing and flex runs (moving sideway with crossing of legs)

Motto Contest

2008-09-03T04:27:00.000-07:00

Calling all Sausages, Team Sausagefest is looking for a motto for our illustrious organization. The motto should be memorable, concise and embodying the essence of what it means to be a Sausage.
Let me start the ball rolling with a few suggestions of my own.

1. Firm and Juicy
2. Sweet sweet piece of heaven
3. Go on, take a bite
4. Goes down easy
5. Best Served with Ketchup

One of our hardcore fans Cynthia Sua has also written in with this suggestion: Salty Goodness....

Fellow Sausages and fans, pls give your input and suggestions. This is just one more step towards greatness.

Interview with Josh

2008-09-01T09:28:00.000-07:00

Qn: Josh, what are your thoughts on the overall performance of the team in last Sunday's match?
Josh: The team is passing much better compared to the previous 2 games but we need to improve defensively as a team.

Qn: What exactly about the defensive aspect does the team have to improve on?
Josh: The players need to follow the team instructions and we need the manager to direct the play. Players were often off their positions creating unnecessary gaps which were springboards for quick counter attacks.

Qn: I see. What about your own performance then?
Josh: Sorry for the below par performance on sunday. Probably lack of fitness and lack of communication with my fellow players. Well, we had several new faces playing across the attacking roles and need to play together more often to form the partnership. We can do a lot better with less criticisms on the field and replace them with more encouragement! There are certainly times when we need to wake the players up but the amount of voices on the field are putting the players off. I can see many of our players losing their confidence as a result.

Qn: Some fans have said that the team's results are suffering due to many absentees or players who appear infrequently. Do you think there is any merit to that?
Josh: I personally do not see that as a direct cause for our failure as we have retain the key core of players over the 3 matches. But i do hope more our players will be more consistent with their attendance !

Qn: The signing of new midfielder, Lester has excited our fans and they can't wait to see him in our new pink jersey. What do u think about the new signing?
Josh: Lester is an exceptional player with great determination and stamina. He will be the solution for our wings to bring in accurate passes for the strikers.

Qn: Speaking of new signings, what do you think of Bennett Tan's debut match last Sunday?
Josh: Bennett played well over the 2 halves and he showed great anticipation and composure. I'm sure he will settle in quickly and i hope he will utilise his pace more often.

Qn: There has been speculation that the club are attempting an outrageous bid to lure star playmaker Shawnaldinho to play for the Sausages. Any truth to that?
Josh: We can't deny it as Shawnaldhino will certainly be a good addition for the club. The players themselves have experienced his mesmerising skills and the prospect of having him in our club will be wonderful.

Qn: Lastly, any words for the fans?
Josh: Be patient and Team Sausagefest will certainly deliver in the near future.

Inspiring words indeed. Thank You for your time!
Josh: Cheers.

Match Report: Team Sausage Fest vs Black Magic Team (1-6)

2008-09-01T08:58:00.000-07:00

There comes a point in every team's journey when it turns a corner and things start to go right for it. For Team Sausagefest players, that moment appeared to have occurred last Sunday at the Great Western Stadium, Boon Lay Sec Sch Field.

The day had started off ominously. A scheduling mix-up had threatened to put an end to the game even before it started. However, the Sausages' spirits were un-dampened and the game eventually kicked off. For the first 20 odd minutes the opponents had the upper hand, creating a number of chances but failing to score. Soon, the Sausages created openings of their own. Galvanized, the players in white doubled their efforts.

Then something extraordinary happened. A mixup in the Black Magicians' defense gifted James Ho with an easy opening, and he took his chance superbly, deftly chipping the ball over the keeper into the goal. Team Sausagefest had taken the lead for the first time in its existence.
Dare they hope to dream of a victory? The players certainly thought so. Was this the moment when the Sausages turned the proverbial corner?

Alas, that goal was to be the only gift granted to us by Lady Luck. The quality of the Black Magicians eventually caught up with us, and we lost 6-1, a scoreline that perhaps reflected the gulf in experience between the 2 teams but certainly not the heart and determination displayed on the field. Team Sausagefest players can hold their delicious-looking heads up proudly. The corner is.....er.....just around the corner.

Interview with Chua Kian Seng Jason

2008-09-01T07:43:00.000-07:00

10 Questions and Answers with our defender, Jason Chua Kian Seng

Q1: When did u start playing soccer?
Jason: Erm i started soccer quite late. Later than most of them i guess. I picked up soccer in secondary 3. We always play in the basketball court after school. Those days were the best.

Q2: Why did you pick up soccer?
Jason: Initially, i just played for fun but the more i played, the more i feel for the game and i wanted to be like my idol john terry and zola.

Q3: You were quite plump during the JC days, what inspired the change?
Jason: Nth inspired me. I just want girls to notice me.

Q4: Who is your current beau? Will there be another "i really really love her this time" girl?
Jason: I dun have any current beau but i can frankly tell u that im wooing this girl. Well i dun dare to say i really love this girl but i noe for the moment i'm interested in her.
Okay, any Name?
Jason: Name.. can i keep it under the table? but i can tell u her surname. 'Toy'.

Q5: What is your favourite position for the game?
Jason: I would love to try our defensive mid role but obviously there are better candidate than me for that role. So i think i will just stick to my wingback role.

Q6: Well, what do you see in the future of this team?
Jason: Erm sausage fest is a new team. Each and everyone of us is new to field soccer and field is unlike street soccer so i believe it will take some time to gel up the whole team. But i guess it wun take long for us to win our first game. I can forsee we will become better and better in every match.

Q7: How do you rate the current manager Sir Benjamin Ang?
Jason: If he is delicated and enthusiatic in being our manager, im sure he will be an excellent choice and bring team sausages to greater heights!
Hmm seems like a big "IF" for you, how much confidence do you have over his committment?
Jason: I have great confidence in him. He is a good tactician and he plays fm well. So i think he can lead us to glory.

Q8: Most of the players in the team think that you will receive the most number of cards this season. What do you think about this? Any protest?
Jason: Haha i have no comment over this. I can only give a 'maybe' as my answer. Most of them know how i play so they will presume that i will do the same on the field.
Personally, how do you feel being classified as a rough and dirty player?
Jason: Seriously, i feel honoured to be labelled as one rough and dirty player. Every team needs someone to do the dirty job and im glad i'm the one doing it.

Q9: How do you think the team is playing at the moment, having conceded 13 goals in just 3 games?
Jason: As i said before, this team is new. Starting a new team is always very hard especially we have players from all over the place. But i strongly believe that we will get better and stronger as every match goes by. Well at least we scored 3 goals. Haha
Do you think the team missed your presence from the last 2 matches?
Jason: I hope to think otherwise but the fact tells it all.

Q10: Final question. Any craving to play as a striker for the team this season?
Jason: No one trusts me to strike. If the whole team dun have faith in ya, how ya going to strike?
Having hit the post from some range during the first match, do you think the team's opinion on your striking ability will change?
Jason: Well, i believe i have the ability to strike and i think i will score a few goals for this season but then, i think our team has a few decent strikers already.

Josh: Thank you for the interview and you should thank me for my time instead for insisting in this interview! =p Good luck Jason...

Player on Sauage Scope - Jason Chua Kian Seng

2008-08-29T10:40:00.000-07:00

Name: JASON CHUA KIAN SENG aka Bosingwa
NO: 26
Position: Wingback
Strength: Stamina, Speed, Aggressive
Antics: Dig Backside, Behave like Mad Chinaman

A no-nonsense defender hatched after 5 years of playing at the Toh Guan street soccer court. Definitely one of our fittest sausages around who constantly kept himself busy with runs and marathons around our nation. An ardent fan of chelsea and likes to emulate his idol Bosingwa who overlaps effectively and with pace. Some say he is even faster than our player-manager Sir Benjamin Ang! So do keep a look out for this speedy wingback and we are expecting a few goals from him this season after hitting the post during the first match.

Onwards Sausages!

TEAM MANAGER 2008

2008-08-28T10:38:00.000-07:00

TRACK RECORD: PJC PAST VS PRESENT 2006 - 3RD

Player-manager Sir BENJAMIN ANG signed an extension to continue his managering career at TEAM SAUSAGEFEST this season. He aimed to bring his team to a higher level and this includes the successful transition from the courts to the field.

A flamboyant player (usually spotted with his Armani underwear and playboy ear studs) blessed with silky skills and electrifying pace, there are not many who can outsprint him in our team. His massive contribution off of the field in managing the team has not gone unnoticed because deep-down, everyone in Team SAUSAGEFEST holds him up in great appreciation.

Games so far:

3rd AUG 2008
SAUSAGEFEST vs RED BOYS - 0-3
Yellow carded: (JASON, LINJIE)

17th AUG 2008
SAUSAGEFEST vs SHELL TEAM - 1-4
Scorer: (Josh pen)
