Uncle Choo

Mr Ganesan
The industrious newly appointed chairman of the football association finally clears the path for the arrival of unorthodox coach Uncle Choo. Facing constant challenge, will Mr Ganean stay true to his decision, or yield to the pressures of the board to remove Uncle before victory returns?

Quah Kim Song
The brave and hardworking will Quah Kim Song will outsprint any defense and out-jump any opponent to bring the ball into the net. But when the very person he fights to prove himself to, disagrees with his path, will he be able to find the reason to fight on?

Mat Noh
The Stylistic Mat Noh is down the flanks is the perfect key to unlocking any defense, but when the love of his life comes at a time when his focus on his career should be total, will he have to make a difficult decision, or be able to find the key to unlocking both love and success?

Rajagopal
His legendary left foot will bend his trademark banana kicks directly into goal from any corner, but when injury completely takes away the very thing that made you a legend, how will you fight to come back to it again?

Samad
The unbreakable wall of defense is the captain Samad Alapitchay. But when work and football clashes, what will the a family loving man do to sustain both his loved ones and his passion?

Dollah Kassim
Known to terrorize defenses with his “gelek” dance with the ball, the “Gelek-King” Dollah Kassim enjoys his football, and sometimes even a little too much. Can Dollah Kassim find the balance between fun and concentration to finally become a complete player and win back the cup for Singapore?
