  • FI 12: Goran Gancev - I hope in five to 10 years Liga 1 will be very attractive for Euro players
    Oct 31 2018
    Goran Gancev is one of the nomads of the Indonesian League. The veteran defender has featured for PSMS Medan, Persebaya, Semen Padang, Borneo, Arema, Gresik United and now Sriwijaya FC. His sort of footballing story is rarely told. He was capped at Under-21 level for his native Macedonia and then pinballed around other Leagues in Eastern Europe before ending up travelling to Indonesia for a new start one Christmas Day. Gancev has island-hopped in Liga 1 too. But, as he nears the end of his career and starts a family, he reflects on his career, the countries in which he has played, the Indonesian experience and what lies ahead. He spoke to me in outside a shopping mall in Palembang in the most recent break in Liga 1. Please forgive the background audio.

  • FI 11: Jacksen F. Tiago: Why I 'kill a lion' every day in training
    Jul 10 2018
    Jacksen F. Tiago is one of the biggest characters in Indonesia football. As a strong, free-scoring striker, he won the League with Persebaya in 1997 and, after retiring, coached the same team to same honour six years later. Since then, Tiago has led Mitra Kukar, Persipura Jayapura and had a spell in charge of the Indonesian national team. He is currently coaching Barito Putera, a small club who have been among the front-runners in GO-JEK Liga 1 during the first half of the campaign. Speaking during the break for Ramadan, Tiago talked about his career as a player and on the sidelines. He also discussed his potential solutions to the problems in Indonesia football, the special reasons he has stayed so long in this country, the importance of intelligent players, WhatsApp and his attacking philosophies. You have to listen to the passion of Jacksen F. Tiago.

  • FI 10: Peter Butler: Persipura, SE Asia and Africa... via Halifax
    Jul 6 2018
    Peter Butler has had one hell of a life in football. The midfielder scored in all four professional divisions in England during a playing career spanning more than 500 games. He then forged a profession as a coach in Africa and south-east Asia. His CV includes Malaysia, Singapore, South Africa Thailand, Myanmar, Botswana, Australia and, of course, Indonesia. I spoke to him in the break in the GO-JEK Liga 1 season for Ramadan. He had led Persipura Jayapura into contention for the title. However, a few weeks after this interview, Butler would part ways with the club. As you would expect, the Yorkshireman has strong views on the sport in Africa and Asia. But he also talks with passion and perspective on the English game. Peter Butler has had a unique career in football, going to places and achieving things others have not. He is worth a listen.
