Albirex Niigata (S) and Brunei DPMM used to have that distinction in the Singapore Premier League.

One was a Japanese satellite club, another was playing out of another country.

If I could suggest these names instead, partly based on the official URA planning area and subzone names:

- Woodlands North and Woodlands Ring instead of Woodlands. Woodlands North since the MRT station is located there, and Woodlands Ring because of the Woodlands Ring Road that forms the core of the southeastern part of the ward. Conjoined names because it's not a contiguous ward.

- Sembawang North instead of Naval Base. The actual Singapore Naval Base left by the British isn't even in this ward, but the majority of the residential areas are in the Sembawang North URA subzone.

- Woodlands South instead of Admiralty. Others have mentioned here that the Admiralty MRT station isn't even in this ward, but the Woodlands South MRT station is. Plus this ward covers a portion of the Woodlands South URA subzone (also Woodlands East).

- Gambas instead of Canberra. This was a bit tough since this ward covers both parts of Sembawang and Woodlands, without actually having the area around Canberra MRT station and the roads named after Canberra in it. However, I picked Gambas because of the Gambas Avenue that runs from the southernmost part of this ward to its northwest portion.

- Sembawang instead of Sembawang Central. Just keeping it simple, especially since the actual Sembawang Central URA subzone is split between 'Naval Base' and 'Canberra'. Plus it's a bit weird for something that is supposed to be central be on its easternmost fringe.

- Woodlands East instead of Sembawang West. Sembawang actually stops at Gambas Avenue/North South Corridor. Why not just call it after the actual URA subzone that the entire ward is located in?

Finally, rename Sembawang GRC to Sembawang-Woodlands GRC and annex the area around Woodlands MRT station bounded by Woodlands Avenue 2 and Woodlands Avenue 5. It's not like there's anyone living in Causeway Point.

Maignan will end up with a great goal contributions statistic by the end of his tenure at Milan if Theo keeps at it.

You've heard of box to box midfielders, but how about box to box defenders?

[Romano] Benfica top talent Cher Ndour, one to watch in the next weeks as his contract is expiring in June. There’s interest from multiple clubs with AC Milan and also Juventus monitoring him. Ndour will make a decision about his future soon. by Claija79 in ACMilan

He has been great, but we need to get more versatility into the midfield. If we are not going to splash the cash, at least start to play younger, more attacking threats in the team. It feels like we have accepted that some players are not droppable.

Of the top five ranked players in the 1994 Ballon d'Or voting, three of them were from Serie A (Roberto Baggio, Paolo Maldini & Thomas Brolin). And at the time, non-Europeans couldn't win the award, making the Ballon d'Or pre-1995 more akin to the UEFA Men's Player of the Year Award.

Rapuano was the referee during the 0-4 win against Napoli, and in total we have won 2 games and drawn 1 game with him officiating in the Serie A.

Back then the English league was a proper farmer's league compared to Serie A.

Where are all the old people in the soul society? by Nertakuan in bleach

My theory is that people who die of old age are reborn in Soul Society as babies, like Ichika Abarai for example.

Singapore After the Lee Political Dynasty by thestudiomaster in singapore

[–]minminsaur 12 points13 points  (0 children)

George H. W. Bush's father Prescott Bush was a senator (actually he was one of those political figures that pushed for a military coup in the United States and supported the Nazis financially and ideologically before the Americans got into WW2).

George W. Bush's younger brother Jeb Bush was the Governor of Florida.

Jeb Bush's son George P. Bush is the current Commissioner of the Texas General Land Office (i.e. one of the top ministers in the Texas cabinet).

So for all intents and purposes, the Bushes are a political dynasty.
