Still a fantastic season for Manchester United

Manchester United didn't manage to win the Champions league title for two consecutive year, last night they were outclassed by Barcelona 2-0, the current Spanish champion deserved to win the trophy, they were the better team last night. Even Sir Alex Ferguson and some of the Man U players also praise Barcelona brilliant display.

Well, even i think so too, however, i am not totally disappointed because Manchester United still have a good season, looking on the bright side of United's epic campaign, despite losing a European Cup final for the first time. This season the Reds have won four trophies - Barclays Premier League, Club World Cup, Carling Cup and Community Shield - and almost won three others - the Super Cup, FA Cup and Champions League. Hence, it is still a fantastic season when you consider what they have achieved this year – including their third Premier league title on the trot. So i hope all Man U fans should still feel proud and happy with all the achievement. Hope they will get stronger and pursuit more glory next season. =)

EPL 2008/2009 Champions

Yesss....Manchester United were crowned champions of England for a record-equalling 18th time at Old Trafford after a goalless draw with Arsenal ensured Liverpool cannot now catch their north-west rivals. This was their 11th Premier League title in 17 leagues since its inception in 1992 and were all won under the club manager Sir Alex Ferguson. This is also their second time they won the league for three successive season.
What an achievement for this fantastic club.


Now they can all focus on the final showdown with the Spanish Champion Barcelona for the Uefa Champions league at Rome on 27 May 2009. All the best to Man U. Cheers! =)

Singapore Courtesy Campaign (Kindness..Bring it on!)

These pictures were taken near Fort Canning along Hill Street, i find these Singa mascots very eye catching, cute and funny. Obviously it is all about the Singapore Courtesy Campaign, this time each individual Singa holds a meaningful slogan to raise people's awareness of the need to be courteous and considerate in various social situations. I think our local Courtesy Campaign had started as early as 1980, i still remember clearly my sister once had a Singa puppet when she was very young...HaHa!

Anyway, it is good to see such Campaign still keep going on and pass on to the next generation. =)

My favourite weekend hang out place

I have discover my new favourite hang out spot for weekend soccer match and it is at CHIJMES. This place is a church, but it also have other activities such as shop and restaurant. Weekend is always a favourite spot for many visitors to have dinner over here and mostly are foreigners, another attraction is because they provide 'live' telecast of EPL matches on big screen. I like to dropby here to watch soccer match too, most of the time is because i have to work over the weekend and have no time to rush home to catch the 'live' match. Over here there are many fans cheering or booing the team at the same time, hence, the atmosphere is quite good and i enjoy it. haha!

Latest results: Man Utd 2 Man City 0

Manchester United are within reach of clinging their 3rd successive Premier league title, a victory over Wigan this thursday will almost seal it.

Rome, here we come!

Manchester United will go to Rome to defend their Champions League trophy after beating Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates stadium and 4-1 on overall aggregate. Yeah!!!

Man U clearly dominated the game and by 60th min they were 3-0 up, Darren Fletcher red card was too harsh and allowed Arsenal to score a consolation goal through penalty. Even Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger also insisted the red card was very harsh after television pictures clearly showed Fletcher played the ball cleanly.

Now awaits either Chelsea or Barcelona. Hope is Chelsea...give them a chance to revenge...HAHA!!!
