For me one of the success stories of last season's SLeague was the return of Tanjong Pagar. They officially add United to their name but that's plain daft. United with what?
Anyway, they got thumped by all and sundry but they also had a real go at some of the bigger teams and earned themselves a handful of good results with such a young squad. OK, it was 12 games before they got their first win and they only won three games but they did give a good account of themselves.
This time round they have already won four games half way through the season. And they have managed just 11 goals this season in their 17 games.
But on Friday they travelled to Choa Chu Kang Stadium, a venue where home team SAFFC once went yonks unbeaten, and won 1-0!
Yes SAFFC are a pale shadow of those heady days and yes they had Noh Rahman red carded. But it doesn't matter. What matters is Tanjong Pagar earned themselves a famous victory.
I bet they thoroughly enjoyed the coach trip back after the game!
