Click to enlarge photo.After the recent scouting trip and approval by Dick Pratt and Chris Judd (possible bench spot mooted); Kuala Lumpur has been confirmed as host of the 10th Annual Asian Championships in Malaysia on September the 5th.
Last years championships saw the unveiling of the Laos Elephants as a force to be reckoned with, not only inside the P.D.R. but also outside of it. Un-witnessed by the author, the phants took the tournament by the trunk and hit heights not seen since the dawning of the Phants in 1975 led by President Kaysone Phomvihane on a half-back-flank in a Glenn Lovett esque sweeping role. A remarkable crowning of Indo-China Champions in Phenom Phen saw the Elephants finest day yet also one of its saddest with a raft of retirees and as such a new dawn has risen.
The Laos Elephants biography "From calf, to mahout to the best team in Asian Football STOMP STOMP - the true story of the pink and grey" is being compiled by ex-president Sharples and will soon be found in all credible book stores ie Dimmy's.
A new Coach, GM and President help to usher in the phants for an enormous 2009 Asian Football Season, with the one constant remaining the unmovable Captain and Vice-Captain, both set to release their autobiographies soon, also at be found at Dimmys. With a number of warm-up fixtures scheduled prior to the Championships a call is being made to all current and previous elephants. SEE YOU IN KL on September 5.
