From the glory days of the Malaysia Cup to the current Malaysian Super League featuring the Lions XII, The New Paper has covered it all. In fact, no newspaper has given as much coverage on Singapore's own domestic league, the S-League.
So when the Legion of Lions, helmed by Leong Kok Fann, Lau Kok Keng and Ian Mullane, was looking to produce a book on the greatest moments in Singapore Football history, they naturally came to The New Paper to bring it to life.
50 Greatest Moments in Singapore Football pays homage to the homegrown football warriors who have given Singapore much to be proud of over the years.
A slice of history plus more than 50 essays: The project team pored over SPH's newspapers from Singapore's pre-independence years to the present.
They took on board the views of football fans and the players themselves. After much debate, they came up with these 50 Greatest Moments. Every one of them is supported by photographs, headlines, news clippings – and a completely new essay that tells the story behind it all. Fresh interviews were conducted, and new facts emerged from the players, coaches and fans: the very moment a spectacular goal was scored, or one missed; the legendary coaches; even the referees.
