Match report: Raiders 4 – 3 Local team

A game of two halves… and an amazing goalkeeper! Sunday’s game may as well have been played on hot coals with the amount of heat that was generated off the playing surface. But at least the Raiders could relax in the heat knowing you wont have to run around on the worlds biggest pitch… or […]

Match report: Raiders 6 – 2 British Club Singapore

It is hard to describe just how hot it was on Saturday. With the hot season yet to kick in and our aging, follicly-challenged squad looking increasingly like a carton of eggs, we may have to play the remainder of the season in hats. The fear of God entered the early Raiders as our touring […]

The Raiders offered debuts up front to […]

Match Report: Sa*nts 4 – 1 Raiders

E’ stata una bella partita,peccato il risultato bugiardo. Dopo tanto tempo ho visto una vera squadra che ha lottato su tutti i palloni aiutandosi e cercando di giocare un buon calcio.

Match report: Saigon Raiders 2 – 2 Real Midgets FC

Written by this week’s Turkey moment owner, Mike Owen. With the Thu Duc pitch resurfaced beautifully, the Saigon Raiders continued their pre-season friendlies against a small, overweight and very audible Vietnamese team. It was looking like a nice cool day for a game of fitba and expectations and positivity was high. The game started that way – albeit […]
