Why do they put those square block designs under the arm pit area? To hide the sweat? :-)
Home kit looks nice enough apart the aforementioned, but the away kit looks like several designs thrown into one.
Still we all have different tastes, it's what the Chonburi fans think of it that counts.

I'm pretty sure that YOU will like third third kit.  |

Hi SriRachaShark, about Hiroshi Morita, did he get contract with Chonburi FC or he was only trial and already left?

With all the hype that currently surrounds Thai domestic football iIt can be quite easy to forget that there was a time when information was extremely difficult to come by. Following the local leagues was very much a minority pastime up until a couple of years ago and press coverage, particularly the English language press coverage, was very thin on the ground. Nowadays we have numerous websites, magazines, newspapers and TV channels dedicated to reporting on the game, in Thai, English and even German , and most TPL clubs are guaranteed to pull in a few thousand, rather than a few dozen, fans for their home games. If you click on the link below you will be able to read four articles from the period 1997 to 1999, which was when I first started to watch Thai football. This of course was pre-Chonburi but some of the clubs mentioned are still playing in the top flight and, if the price is right, I might even reveal which was "my" team. (Quiet, JC  ) Researching this feature has brought back a lot of memories of the period when the players on the pitch often outnumbered the supporters in the stands http://www.clubwebsite.co.uk/chonburifc/club_news.pl?news=323439 |

The article about the launch of the Provincial League was particularly interesting from my point of view. Funny how they talk about the importance of the fans! With weekday afternoon kick-offs, fixture dates being routinely changed and a dearth of information, I never felt particulalrly valued in the PL days. Best laid plans and all that... |

Roghly how long does it take to get from Muang Thong Thani to Chonburi's ground? Roughly how much would the cab cost?

Cab?! Train or bus, surely. |

You could probably do it by car in just over an hour. The new ground is situated in the north of the city about two minutes from the motorway exit. |

If I went to the Chonburi V MTU game I'd be going straight from work, finishing at 12pm, so I wouldn't have time to get the bus or train.

Some of us on here have been known to phone in "sick" on match days. |

I'd say there were about 40/50 of them. |

I'm hearing conflicting reports about the secheduled time for the MTU V Chonburi game.
The TPL website still says next week, sources inside MTU say it's been postponed until May.

OK. Certain things might be out of the hands of FAT/TPL but all this messing about is a real throwback to the bad old days. They want to present the league as a well run professional competition but (at the risk of repeating myself) I have played in better run Sunday leagues. It's beyond a joke.  |

Yes this is crazy. I think they just don't understand how bad this is and how this is an insult to anyone trying to follow the league.

You just beat me to it, 66S. What a farce. I know it's a cliche but my late Grandad's favourite expression, "They couldn't run a p1ss up in a brewery!" springs to mind.

Loko, are you visiting the mighty Thunderdome/Lego Land for the Chonburi game?
A few MTU personnel went to the Chonburi V Army game Dale, some interesting feedback but of course now we will have to keep it under wraps until after May 28th. No fun!

I hopefully can buy my flight ticket mid of April, and if my boss assigns my holiday request, yes. I hope so, or at least that's my plan. May 20 - June 7 is the target. But of course there are other matches in my focus too, on gamedays different from the CFC ones. |

Thanks for the info. I already was thinking about that. But I am not sure whether it is a good timing for CFC. To make such a friendly right in the middle of two big matches. |

The Glentoran game was arranged before all this messing about. The frirendly is scheduled for the Wednesday and originally there were no league games due to take place over the following weekend. Here's a link to the original story : http://www.clubwebsite.co.uk/chonburifc/club_news.pl?news=303230 |

Dale, it looks like we could be watching MTU and Chonburi fight it out for the TPL and Sriracha and Rajpracha run for the D1 title.
Could get interesting :-)
