Akmal's going to Norwich
Just read somewhere that our very own Akmal Rizal has been accepted for a trial at Norwich City. Now, if all goes well, and Norwich sign him up, we might see the very first Malaysian football player playing in the Premiership! However, i also read that one of the reasons which would "help" him to get signed up is the fact that Norwich city is currently being sponsored by a certain "Malaysian Company". Now don't get me wrong here, i do rate Akmal as one of our better players, and i will be absolutely proud if he does indeed get signed up and appear on the starting lineup, or at least even appear on the bench itself. However, sportsmen getting their chances overseas or at an international level due to a local company "investing" / "sponsoring" that team just smells too "Alex Yoong-ish" to me. Anyway, i hope that Akmal does get signed up cos it would give the local talent here hope and belief that a local player can make it overseas and make them work doubly hard and hence improve the state of the joke we call "Malaysian national football team".
All the best to you Akmal, and here's to you scoring your hattrick against the Scums!! Ha ha ha
