And many people outside of Thailand may find these are a bit strange:

1. Thai Farmers Bank
2. Bangkok Bank
3. Krung Thai Bank

Not surprising that non exist anymore!

Oh and probably Chonburi Code Red - more of a computer game than a team.

I'm glad it didn't catch on! How long did the "Code Red" & Chonburi FC partnership last?

Thankfully just the one season. In all honesty it is an awful name but I do like to wear my Code Red t-shirt on special occasions. : )

Thai Farmers Bank, what a cleaver name.

People from outside the Kingdom would have thought, 'wow, thai farmers are owning a bank.

In reality, the farmers are still paying for those first set of uniforms on behalf of the bank.
No, not football team uniforms but those of pretty tellers... Tongue

Good old Thai Farmers.

Would it be fair to say they were the most feared team in Asia in the mid 90's?

2 ACL titles to their name, one 3rd place and an Afro-Asian Cup to boot.

Kasikornbank bank should bring them back to play in the Queen's Cup and other friendly tournaments, using the original 1994 team!
