Samad unfortunately lost his adult son about one year ago from some disease.

This boy was almost killed in 2001 at Boat Quay. Another young promising Soccer player died. Sad case. Hope Samad is doing alright.

Farker went to play in Hong Kong for a while, came back became broke and I think currently still driving a taxi. Most of these players ended up being nobody after their playing days are over.

Many dunno how to manage money even if they made a lot during their heydays. Fandi is a good example. The only one I know that kept his money is Malek Awab. Got a landed property in Kembangan. Quah Kim Song did well also but that was money from his job after Football. Nasri Nasir was another one that splurge his earnings on cars.

Uncle Choo had a Diadora sports shop in Plaza Sing. Selling mostly Football gear

Spot on. I heard it from Samad myself.

 

[Porfirio Rubirosa]

Uncle Choo did open his sports shop at Plaza Sing

he was the agent for 1 sportwear company

cant recall the brand

I use to love dropping by his shop whenever I went for my Yamaha organ lessons, than makan at Yaohan food floor.

Like what some one said above, his shop use to be the agent of Diadora. Recall the famous Italian/Juventus striker of that era Roberto Bettega was the poster boy for Diadora football boots.

Apart from Diadora, he also use to bring in Fila apparel and Donnay tennis rackets. All stuff used by tennis icon of that era Bjorn Borg.

Happy memories

Samad was very involved with horse racing and as a result there was speculation that he was involved with bookies and used to see him at the Bukit Timah Turf Club.

I think that was the reason Uncle Choo replaced Samad & Raja Gopal in the 2nd half of 1977 Malaysia Cup Final vs Penang.
