My 1st Liga Super game of the season.



Finally managed to come back to hometown & watch a proper Perak match (vs N. 9). Boy! What a match it turned out to be. The Seladangs beat the 2009 Malaysia Cup Champions with 2-0 goals without reply. Akmal Rizal's sublime volley which led to the 2nd goal deserved a special mention.

I noticed the crowd volume has swelled & it's a good sign. A nice addition is the establishment of our very own Ultras known as Silver State Ultras who were nicely parked the 'curva' beside the scoreboard. They came with flares too!

I remember when I went to Stadium Ipoh on the aftermath of Perak FA's financial deficit in 2009, the turnout was still not too shabby i.e. 6-8K. Suddenly all the who's who in Malaysia football had deserted Perak due months of stalled salary and we had to resort to promoting players from the President's Cup wholesale.
