COME on in Singapore, we will make the Bukit Jalil Stadium a living hell for you.
It is a promise the Malaya Ultras have every intention of keeping come Thursday, when Singapore face Causeway rivals Malaysia in the second leg of their 2014 World Cup second-round qualifier.
Known for their fanatical support of the Tigers, the Ultras lived up to their fearsome reputation at the 6,000-seater Jalan Besar Stadium on Saturday.
Clad in black T-shirts with yellow scarves wrapped around their necks, they arrived at the stadium around 1.30pm - six hours before the game - and made their rounds chanting 'Harimau Malaya' and brandishing their scarves in unison.
Despite being outnumbered, they still left a lasting impression on Lions fans seated in the gallery just next to the 300-strong contingent.
Said Lawrence Seetoh, a 38-year-old interior designer: 'They proved that fans can become the 12th man for the team.'
