Annoyingly they used to be partnered with hotshits LOL but they're the more "local" club as opposed to our rivals Kitchee which have historically been more of a foreigner's club and sign more foreigners like most notably Diego Forlan

I'm ethnically Korean so I'm used to having to look past a seemingly automatic affinity for Sp*rs, so no worries there.

I was curious, however, about the name of the Youtube channel, I couldn't for the life of me figure out what SNG130 was supposed to refer to. I actually had to, no lie, look up who won 4th place in this year's 1st Division (having seen the team posing with the banner at the end of a recent match) to figure out which team you were actually referring to.

Yeah, I have no idea either LOL, I assume there's a reason behind it though. South China AA was my club before even Arsenal cuz it was in its prime when I grew up with the Premier League Asia trophy and stuff, so I'm glad to have found a better way to support them.

Also that's totally my bad on looking up the club lol, I didn't think about the fact that the YouTube channel was in Chinese XD

I'm glad they have the livestreams too, seems like a great way to grow your fanbase when you're in a limited market.

It's all good, I enjoy a bit of sleuthing 🔍
