MFL faces backlash over burdensome M-League fixture list
KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysia Football League (MFL) has come under fire over what supporters described as a confusing, poorly planned and burdensome M-League schedule this season.
KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysia Football League (MFL) is facing criticism over its M-League fixture list, which fans have deemed confusing and poorly planned. The Anak Selangor Fan Club (ASFC) president, Faizal Wahid, highlighted the challenges fans now face in organizing travel to attend matches due to the congested schedule. This comes as the league began late in the year, leaving many supporters with limited leave days, further complicating their plans.
Faizal also pointed out the inequity in the number of games played by different clubs, calling for improved organization to ensure the league's quality and supporter satisfaction. Kim Pan Gon, head coach of Selangor, echoed similar concerns, stating that the excessive fixtures were compromising the fitness and quality of the players, as they were forced into three matches within a week.
The league's chaotic scheduling has sparked frustration among supporters, who fear a decline in the league's standards.
