The shocking decision of the Football Association of Sarawak (FAS) to appoint Ian Gillan as head coach and technical director of the Crocs brings a lot of questions, especially since FAS had previously said they prefer to appoint a local head coach to the job next season.
Ian Gillan, better known as IG to us, has had an impressive resume and his double role for the Crocs may mean that he is keen to stake a mark in Sarawak football during his two year contract.
While FAS is still very much lobbying for a slot in the Liga Super, IG’s role in selecting players for the 2018 team has already begun today officially.
With ten players already departing the Crocs, IG would be keen to bolster his side with talents and also experience, something that does seem lacking in the current Sarawak FA set-up, especially with the current crop of local players being either lacking in experience, of being ‘too experienced’.
That said, we are highly convinced that IG would be looking to persuade FAS to get foreign players to help him strengthen his side, and this may see the Crocs snapping up to three new foreign signings in the coming weeks.
Well, while this is indeed our assumptions, time will tell if they do come true.

Foreign player …..we need them to be more challenging…and fulfill FMLLP conditions…
Dont just take for the sake of taking to fill the gaps, but take the quality ones
Kalau betul, bagus….Itu yang diharapkan agar pasukan Sarawak kekal kompetatif dalam saingan.
We still need foreign player,
Buang player import, ambik baru player import, ney janji mok guna 100% local?
Why not? We need a winning team, not just for the sake of just to complete the team..
if budget is an issue. Just take 2 is enough. But they should be experience players so they can lead and guide our local players. Important cos we lost many of our best local talents already
Why not if want to back super league Sarawak must have import player but get better one especially from Asian like Vietnam or Thailand because they have good stamina
