The discussion was in Malay, with a lot of slang, so Google's translation tool didn't work all that well, but the indication was that any possible game wouldn't be any time soon. Except that by checking Selangor's twitter feed, it appeared as if they were already here!

Furthermore, it appears as if Selangor (who will be here until December 16th, as part of their pre-season preparations) have scheduled a match against us tomorrow evening at 6:00PM. Will it be open doors? What kind of team would we possibly field at such short notice? I'm guessing yes to the first question, and probably some cobbled together youth outfit for the second.
So, depending on how desperate you are to see some South action, you may want to head to this affair - with the full knowledge that it may be a closed doors session and of absolutely no consequence whatsoever considering who we'll have on the park, with our actual senior likely not starting pre-season training until some time early in the new year.
UPDATE
My mail suggests this is a closed door session.
Thanks for that. Surely if there was a prospect of this being an open session the club would have communicated it? Seems like a missed opportunity, notwithstanding legitimate questions about how such a match could be meaningful preparation at this time? I would love to get to a match - but an open session which is just a training run I am not so sure. All seems a bit odd frankly.
