Futbol's alive in Malaysia??

The Malaysia cup final is this Saturday.

Just like last year, it's Kelantan against Negeri Sembilan again. (NS won the cup last year)

As at yesterday, the 30,000 tickets allocated to the NS supporters were sold in one hour.

The 10,000 seats allocated to the Kelantanese were also sold within an hour. That's like 40,000 tickets sold within an hour. One ticket costs RM30. That's RM1.2m.

A balance of about 40,000 tickets will be on sale on matchday. (betul ka?)

The match will be in Bukit Jalil which can accomodate 100,000 people. IF, all the tickets were to be sold, FAM may reap RM3million on that day alone. (If everyone pays RM30 per ticket lah)

Last year, the same team faced each other at Bukit Jalil stadium which were attanded by 95000 fans, I thought the Kelantanese fans outnumbered their NS counterpart at least by 3:1.

Kelantan especially has tremendously improved in terms of being a team with solid fanbase...just like what Selangor used to have in the 90s.

Wow...futbol's alive in Malaysia eh?

p/s: TO FAM, Police & Security guards,

Pls check & inspect everyone entering the stadium before the game. Please take away all the firecrackers & summon them on the spot. It's strange when Man Utd came here last year, the security guards checked everyone entering the stadium. Why can't you do it at a local derby? Jgn double standard ok?

Will I go to the match? I might actually...I'm a fan of football and always like to see good games like this one. BUt...i'm a bit worried with some of the fans from both sides as they can be rowdy & vulgar at the same time. If I can remember correctly during the M'sia Cup between Selangor & Perlis, there were fans smoking hashish at the stand....How is that possible eh? Nyways...let's see la how it goes...

It's gonna be a another great sporting week here in Malaysia. CIMB Asia Pacific Classic golf tournament is on this weekend. ANother great opportunity to see some of the world's best golfers in action in the country!!

Maybe the best team win!!!!
