10/2/22 Match Report Raider Reserves vs Fox Academy American Version
Apologize for the delay in writing the match report. It took me some time to craft my words for non-Americans. I will try to avoid American sports sayings and Trumpisms. Donald trump’s sayings are played out! Trump once said, “Show me someone without an ego and I’ll show you a loser”! The Raiders reserves braved […]

SIFL Cup – Saturday 24th September
SIFL Cup “What a great day for football!” Mark ‘2 yard thunderbastard Kenny’ hollered at the gods during the warm up, as they repaid him by cranking up the humidity by 10 degrees and removing all cloud cover.

However, since he can’t divide himself into two coaches for a match, interim coach Chris made an appearance and took the black team. Kickoff. The red […]

Match report Good Bye Jamie
Sitting in my bedroom, nearly a week on from the match, and to be honest, I can remember more about my first match as a Raider as opposed to this dismal result that we suffered in the hands of the poxy French. We’ve had a few results go against us lately, and I don’t think […]

Match Report 6 Raiders vs Tri Hai FC 2
17.04.22 It was Easter Sunday, the sun was setting, Japan were getting slapped by the one and (thankfully) only Fighting Cockheads FC and Eric’s nowhere to be seen but who’d surprised at that? Sunday’s game saw us line up against the infamous back ups Tri Hai FC. Struggling for players as it was Colin […]

Match Report Tuesday 15th March 2022 – Saigon Raiders 2 – Saigon S***** 0
With the 5-2 Ashes drubbing fresh in the memory, Raiders arrived at the Tri Hai stadium in confident, buoyant mood, despite the brief 48-hour respite from seeing off an always pesky Japan side. They also arrived far more sober, with ‘Christ’ and Eric smelling more like their usual Africa Lynx Christmas boxsets than the underbelly […]
