Jaya's tryst with destiny
Persema could well have been the final straw. Word in Bandung is that the coach has until their next game to effect an improvement or he could be gone. Their next game is against Persija on 9 January!
The goals have dried up for a side that boast attacking options like Christian Gonzales, Hilton Moreira and Budi Sudarsono.
Gonzales, leading scorer for the last four years in Indonesia, has netted just once all season while their leading scorer, Brazilian striker Hilton has just two.

Persib v Persija
It's one of the hottest atmosphere's in Indonesian football with a hatred that rivals anything that Europe can throw up. Away fans don't travel, if they do they keep quiet, while the visiting team often departs in an armoured personnel carrier.
This season's first meeting between these two rivals takes place on 9 January and already officials have said the Jalak Harupat Stadium, Persib's home stadium, cannot be used.
Persib have drawn up three alternatives. Manahan Stadium in Solo, Jatidiri Stadium in Semarang or the Gajayana Stadium in Malang.
No decision has yet been made though one hopes they make one pretty bloody quickly. On the 6th players from both teams will be representing Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand in Asian Cup qualifiers. It would be nice if they could fly straight to the selected city on the Thursday, two days before the game.
