From demo organiser to mother hen

At the weekend I sat down for an interview with Danang, the Gen Sec of the Jakmania and also leading light behind the movement to oust Nurdin Halid as FA Chairman. We had a very informative chat over a number of topics, ok one, football, and hopefully the interview will see the light of day over on the ESPN website soon.

One thing I asked about was evening kick offs at Lebuk Bulus for Persija games. The recent Copa tie with PSM was originally slated for 6.30 but soon reverted to the more traditional 3.30 pm. Annoying for me 'cos I can't get there in time.

"Many of our supporters are young and come from distant parts of Jakarta. By kicking off later it means they would be stuck in traffic coming to and from the stadium and they would end up getting home late," he explained.

Note to the English Premier League: please read and comment!

Comments:
There's no further demonstration to throw Nurdin's chair is it? Even supporters seem to be quiet lately. Does Jakmania has further plan to demount Nurdin and Exco?
 
check out the interview over on www.espnstar.com
