Match report: Raiders 3 – 2 Local Team
Saturday 21st of January 2017 was a dark dark dark dark day for some of us…. Yes, you know where I am talking about you bastards. The unrighteous, undeserved and unjustified decision to vote for The Raven, having made a goal and an assist, to be Turkey of the Match. An absolute scandal and it […]

Match report: Raiders 2 – 2 FCFC
Turkeys vs Cocks Breaking from tradition I have decided to type this report up, keeping in line with improvements in modern technology.

The starting squad consisted of Mirko in nets, with Pete, Olly, Jerry, and Ohashi in the back. The midfield saw Craig and Sipho out wide, with Edwin and Mick holding down the middle of […]

Disappointingly for them, both The Raiders and Hotshots seemed to be intent on […]

Match report: Raiders 6 – 1 Hong Kong Krauts
2 games in 2 days gave us the chance to see the whole squad in action and what we are capable of. After the bad result on Friday it was time to show the German team from Hong Kong how we play in Saigon. Let’s be honest – it was not much opposition they gave […]

Match report: Raiders 1 – 2 Olympique
Last week, we bade a fond farewell to a German and a gent, Daniel Breustedt. The outgoing captain’s boots have been filled by Olly with on the pitch duties and Jerry with off the pitch duties, as the new Captain and Vice-Captain were sworn in during the post-game, Orient frivolities. Another Friday. Another game. Another win? […]

Cartwheels in Bangkok
Our eyes met. My mouth was dry. Mentally I ran through possible answers. Friendship or honesty. If personal experience has taught me anything it’s that honesty isn’t always the best policy. Like when a girl asks ‘You didn’t come inside me did you?’ There is a fine line and I was about to cross it. […]
