Not in match day squad as BM II beat Waldhof Mannheim 3-2 to go 2nd (normally an automatic promotion spot) in Liga 3.
So looks like he will be in the first team squad come Tuesday, when a win over Werder Bremen will clinch the Bundesliga title.

Wow, even if he doesn't make the field, it'll still be an amazing thing to experience from the bench! What a meteoric rise it's been! It's just a shame the crowds can't be there too
you would think for a young guy, no crowd may actually help the nerves
Hope he gets in to take advantage
Is it Wednesday morning our time?
Yep, 6.30am.
From this week's Flying Kiwis. A useful little reality check/reminder.
"You’d have thought with a sub up their sleeve a late cameo from Singh might have wasted a bit of time but alas, no digs. It just goes to show you how intensely competitive a squad like like this can be. There are no free minutes at a powerhouse club like this. Ghanaian international Kwasi Okyere Wreidt has scored 67 goals in the last three years for the reserves and his 13-minute appearance here was his first Bundesliga appearance for two and a half years – funny coincidence is he’s already agreed to leave and join Michael Woud at Willem II in the Netherlands next season.
Perhaps Singh will get his chance after the title is already wrapped up. Even if he doesn’t, gotta say he’s already ahead of the pacemaker in this race just to be where he is so soon... remember he was only signed on a reserve team deal. There was also another reserve team game the day after the M’gladbach match but it was away and none of the lads from that first team squad partook... BM2 won 3-2 against Waldhof Mannheim and are now in second place with six games left. Neither the first team or reserves have lost since football came back."
On the bench to possibly see Bayern wrap up another Bundesliga title, as they travel to Werder Bremen.
Cuisance & Zirkzee also back on the pine.
I have skysport, doesn't appear to how bundesliga on sky. Anyone got a linksicle?
Bayern only make one sub out of a possible five - a defender, Lucas Hernandez - as they clinch the title, struggling to a tight 1-0 win over Bremen. Left back Davies got a red 75 mins in, forcing the only sub and pretty much ending Singh’s chances of coming on
With the title wrapped up, Singh could get some minutes in the last two games, maybe even a start.
How much playing time do you need to have to get a winners medal?

Probably more than 8 minutes lol.

lol, youd hope so, but if he plays 90 mins in last two games, gives him 188 mins :)
Starting for BM II (3rd) as they host Meppen (10th) in Liga 3.
Zirkzee & Cuisance not in the match day squad, which probably reflects where Singh lies in the pecking order.
Don't think him getting game time for first team, with their last two Bundesliga games is a given.
ECL resumes in August? German Cup semi 4th July. Bayern could be keen to keep all their big guns playing through & match fit. They play again on Saturday verus Freiburg.
Subbed at HT (BM II were up 2-0), in a 5-1 win. So maybe he is lined up for some first team mins this weekend.
BM II go top of Liga 3, for the moment. MSV Duisburg are playing now, and if they win will shoot back into top spot.
But yeah a great season so far for BM II who were promoted from German 4th tier this season, and tipped to be relegation candidates.
I'm sure even though they can't go up to Liga 2, the young team will be strongly motivated to finish in one of the usual promotion spots (1st-3rd on the table).
Could end up have two winners medals for the mantelpiece back at home in Auckland.

Druisburg only drew 1-1. So with 5 rounds left BM II are now top (for first time this season I think), for next few days at least.
Druisburg also have a tough game this weekend against 4th placed Hana Rostock (gunning for promotion).
Whilst the Bayern 2nd team play middling Madgeburg (13th - 4 pts above drop zone). Same time as first team play Freiburg, so Singh will probably miss that.
But yeah Singh getting two medallions gotta to be a chance. May even influence the thinking of Bayern's coaching staff re giving some of BM II kids games for the first team (who do yes only have two Bundesliga games left). Quite a coup to win both divisions.
Logan Rogerson's old club (Carl Zeiss Jena) are definitely for the drop, last 10 points adrift from 2nd last.
Tom Doyle's old Nazi supported club (Chemnitzer FC) are just 3 pts above the relegation spots.

I think in an initial press conference once we had our mass exodus, Talay said that he had sign-off on everyone who left. Pretty sure he name-dropped Krishna and Williams as the only ones he wanted to keep?
Doyle was already on the outer with Rudan. He had a pretty bad game at Perth from memory last season, when both Durante & Taylor were out. After the game Rudan made mention of expecting more from Doyle stepping up as a senior CB, in the absence of the other two.
Think after that Rudan never really picked him, and assume he didn't give great feedback to his mate Talay, when Ufuk asked him for his views on certain Nix players.
Named in the Starting XI!!!

A starting debut for a Kiwi in the Bundesliga playing for Bayern Munich. Thats pretty special.
Good chances for Bayern in the first few minutes, Singh got in the middle for one cross - only just away from him
Singh in the middle of things again. Predictably, wasn't able to muscle himself into a better position, but very exciting!
Amazing chance for Singh! Defender heads it away, but that was top corner otherwise!

Great shot just now - they appear to be happy to try to get him the ball near the box.
Oh and what a ball. Almost a perfect assist
Nearly lays on an assist for Lewa now! He's really stamping himself on this game so far!
2-0 Bayern, Singh hasn't featured in either but has still looked good. Lewa sets another record with most goals by a non-German
No goals or assists after 45 minutes but you can certainly tell that while he may not always be with Bayern, Singh will be playing at the top level for a very long time.
Singh off at the 63rd. Great way to get your name out there with more fans. Can certainly hold his head high after that!
Well played young Singh. Completely looked the part among the Bayern superstars. Could have had a goal and an assist. Still amazes me to think he was training at Newtown no2 this time last year with the Nix.
Hard to know where his future will be. He can obviously play at this level. So will Bayern keep him and hope he continues to develop into Mullers replacement or will they sell him off. Either way Singh will have a great career. If they do sell him it could be windfall for the Nix. They will surely have written a percentage of his future sale clause when they sold him to Bayern.
Finished 3-1 to Bayern, same score when Singh came off.
Bayern's last Bundesliga game is against Wolfsburg next weekend.
In Liga 3, BM II drew 2-2 v Magdeburg. They stay top on GD.
Gee it was fantastic to see him on the starting team sheet amongst all of those World Famous players
Have we got a video?

5 world cup winners in the starting 11 playing alongside Singh. Plus one of the greatest strikers of the modern game (or perhaps ever). Amazing for the lad.
