Things are starting to look up for the Red Giants in their first full season under the leadership of association president Tengku Amir Shah Sultan Sharafuddin. Following a poor start to the season with five matches without a win, a dramatic 3-2 come-from-behind win over Klang Valley rivals Kuala Lumpur on matchday six of the Super League ushered in a turnaround in their performance; two wins and one draw.
Their recent FA Cup exit following a shock 2-1 defeat to Felda United at home took the wind out of their sails somewhat, but at least the worst seems to be over.
