Talk about Country Football
Brunei DPMM FC
Nickname: The Wasps
Home Ground: Hassanal Bolkiah Stadium, Bandar Seri Begawan
Last Season: Did not participate
Overview:
For years a regular fixture in the RHB Singapore Cup, Brunei’s only professional outfit will now enjoy the pleasure of weekly S.League football after being air-flown in as late replacements for Dalian Shide Siwu. Rules have been bent and exceptions made to cater to their participation, and they have responded by clocking some impressive early results. But can the team bankrolled by the Crown Prince of Brunei spend their way to the top?
Star Recruit: Oh Ddog Yi
New to this team but certainly no stranger to Singapore football, the man who fronted the Super Reds’ charge for a substantial chunk of the 2008 season now finds himself leading the attacking line for the league’s newest foreign outfit. Fans will remember this temperamental forward for a number of reasons, but whether he can link up well with his new colleagues will have a huge influence on the team’s fortunes.
Main Man: Vjeran Simunic
Not since the days of Steve Darby has anyone seen a more colourful personality take his place at the head of any bench – and even the Englishman was not this animated! The man who coaches both DPMM and the Brunei national team has taken to the limelight with his endless and eccentric comments, some of them bordering on the hilarious. Now, if he can just pause for a minute and let the journalists have their turn…
Wild Card: Shahrazen Said
Arguably Brunei’s answer to Khairul Amri, this 23-year-old was a revelation in 2007 when he finished joint top-scorer in the Malaysian Super League. He has taken rather longer to get his scoring boots on in Singapore, but having opened his account recently against Sengkang Punggol, great things can be expected of this hotshot.
Title Potential: 3.5
Suggestions of a top-three finish, or even a push for the title, may seem plausible given their current standing in the table. The real tests of character will come soon enough, however, and against seasoned campaigners who have done it all before, Simunic will need more than his weapons of mass distraction.

Hehe i watch last night DPMM's match against Gombak Utd! It was a thriller and they won 2-1! Recently DPMM is on form in the S-League so i thought i make a post out of it. Its not just about Manutd, you-force also supports our own national team ;D
