SLVC: Home regained Crown

Albirex's joy of winning its first SLVC just 5 days ago was indeed short-lived as expected, as they were dispatched 0-2 on 26-June & surrendered the crown to Home Utd.

This is Home's 12th SLVC title, the 2nd-most among all teams, behind SAFFC's 13 wins...

SLVC Record in 2008:
Albirex: P3, W1-D0-L2, F4-A6, Pts 3
Home: P1, W1-D0-L0, F2-A0, Pts 3

SLVC Record all-time:
Albirex: P11, W1-D2-L8, F10-A23, Pts 5
Home: P102, W60-D22-L20, F206-A131, Pts 202

With this win, Home has became the only 2nd team (behind SAFFC as well) to amass more than 200 points in the all-time mini-league.

Home's next game will be against Geylang away on 1-July.

SLVC: Albirex the New Champions!

On 21-June, apparently still suffering from the "League Cup Hangover", Super Reds handed the SLVC title they held for 6 games to Albirex, who finally broke their SLVC jinx after 10 attempts!

However, Albirex's joy could be short-lived, as they will play Home Utd @ Bishan on 26-June. Let's see if they willl be able to hold on to the title for more than a game following this upset win...

SLVC Record in 2008:
Super Reds: P7, W4-D2-L1, F17-A9, Pts 14
Albirex': P2, W1-D0-L1, F4-A5, Pts 3

SLVC Record all-time:
Super Reds: P12, W5-D2-L5, F21-A25, Pts 17
Albirex': P10, W1-D2-L7, F10-A21, Pts 5

12 Sengkang--- 33 2 13 18 11 - 48 19 -37

Though still rooted at the bottom, Sengkang finally earned their first win of the season against Young Lions. However, they also set a new mark of 5 goal-less draws for a team in a season, it is likely that the "record" can be extended further in this campaign. :-)

For now, SAFFC is back on top, but only on G/D. The title race seemed to be fast becoming a 2-horse affair, with Home/Tampines fighting it out for 3rd-place & others trailing in their wake...

Gombak 1-0 Home: finally overtaken Sembawang!

Beside putting a huge dent on Home's 2008 title hopes, Gombak have finally overtaken Sembawang in the all-time S.League table, :-)

Gombak already had Sembawang in sight at the start of the 2008 season, but they were struggling to reach the target due to their indifferent form since.

Prior to the Home game, Gombak actually went 6 games winless, but they managed to pull-off the upset at the right time in their 207th game (co-incidentally the same number of games Sembawang have played all-time!!):
#- Team ------------ Pld W PK D- L-- F-- A-- GD-- Pts
10 Gombak United --- 207 56 0 49 102 281-381 -100 217
11 Sembawang Rangers 207 53 5 47 102 256-405 -149 216

It must have been the force of destiny, wasn't it?

S.League 08 Projected Finish: 6-May

With all teams completed 12 games & the league taking a 2 week break for Singapore Cup matches, let's take a quick projection on how they will finish at the end of the season, base on current standings.

As at 6-May:
# Team-------- P- W D L GF - GA Pts GD
1 Super Reds- 12 10 1 1 24 - 10 31 (+14)
2 Singapore AF 12 9 2 1 35 - 13 29 (+22)
3 Home-------- 12 8 2 2 34 - 17 26 (+17)
4 Tampines---- 12 6 2 4 25 - 18 20 (+7)
5 Geylang----- 12 5 1 6 17 - 24 16 (-7)
6 Young Lions- 12 4 3 5 14 - 18 15 (-4)
7 Woodlands--- 12 4 3 5 12 - 17 15 (-5)
8 Gombak------ 12 2 6 4 16 - 18 12 (-2)
9 Albirex----- 12 3 3 6 16 - 26 12 (-10)
10 Dalian----- 12 3 2 7 11 - 18 11 (-7)
11 Balestier-- 12 1 4 7 10 - 18 07 (-8)
12 Sengkang--- 12 0 5 7 02 - 19 05 (-17)

Projected Finish:
# Team-------- P- W- D L- GF - GA Pts GD
1 Super Reds-- 33 28 3 02 66 - 28 87 38
2 Singapore AF 33 25 6 02 96 - 36 81 60
3 Home-------- 33 22 6 05 94 - 47 72 47
4 Tampines---- 33 17 6 10 69 - 50 57 19
5 Geylang----- 33 14 3 16 47 - 66 45 -19
6 Young Lions- 33 11 8 14 39 - 50 41 -11
7 Woodlands--- 33 11 8 14 33 - 47 41 -14
8 Gombak------ 33 6 17 10 44 - 50 35 -6
9 Albirex----- 33 8 08 17 44 - 72 32 -28
10 Dalian----- 33 8 06 19 30 - 50 30 -20
11 Balestier-- 33 3 11 19 28 - 50 20 -22
12 Sengkang--- 33 0 14 19 06 - 52 14 -46

Sengkang actually almost beaten Albirex at Jurong East on 5-May, if not for a disallowed penalty. So the first win will wait...

On top of that, 4 of the 5 points they managed this season were goal-less draws, already a record jointly shared with a few other teams. Should the goal drought continue, they're likely to "improve" upon it, :-)
