Tanjong Pagar United to sit out 2015 S.League season

Tanjong Pagar United to sit out 2015 S.League season

Local football club Tanjong Pagar United has confirmed it is sitting out of the next S.League season. It finished 9th in the recently concluded season, in which Warriors FC were crowned champions.

In a Facebook post on Monday (Nov 3), the Jaguars said: "It is confirmed that TPUFC will be sitting out of the 2015 S.League season. We thank all our supporters for your support from 2011 to 2014. Hope to see you again."

No reason was given. Previously, a lack of finances forced Tanjong Pagar United to exit after the 2004 S.League season for six years.

The football club goes back four decades. It was known as Tiong Bahru United Football Club in 1996, before changing to its current name in 1998. It won the S.League Best Fan Club Award from 1997 to 1999.

Warriors FC win S.League title

Warriors FC win S.League title in nail-biting finish

Warriors FC have won the S.League title on the final day of the season in a nail-biting finish.

Both teams went into their final game on Friday (Oct 31) level on points, but Brunei DPMM had a vastly superior goal difference. The Warriors thus needed to better DPMM's result or the Bruneian team would win the title.

It was a cagey first half for both DPMM and the Warriors at their respective matches, but the title race sparked to life in the second half.

At the Choa Chu Kang Stadium, Hafiz Rahim scored what turned out to be the title-winning goal for the Warriors in the 47th minute against Albirex Niigata, as the match ended 1-0 to the Warriors.

DPMM - who were without midfielder Azwan Ali and 15-goal striker Roy O'Donovan - took on Tampines Rovers at the Jalan Besar Stadium. It was Tampines who drew first blood in the 64th minute through Jozef Kaplan, before Miljan Mrdakovic made it 2-0 in the 72nd minute.

Rodrigo Tosi clawed one back for DPMM in the 81st minute, but it was too little too late for the Bruneians as the Warriors clinched the S.League title.

This was also Aleksandar Duric's last match before retiring from professional football, as he ended his 16-year professional career in Singapore with a win. At the end of the match, he was presented with jerseys from Tampines Rovers Chairman Teo Hock Seng and Football Association of Singapore President Zainudin Nordin.
