Thailand - Oman game Cancelled
Was this game ever really taking part? Just wishful thinking on Thailand's part if you ask me.
Oman will take on Singapore on the 28th and 31st of December cancelling on Thailand. But the Thai media never said anything on the game and the Omani media only ever promoted a Singapore double header.
Seem's once again, FAT telling the world before anything has been signed and delivered. Numpty's once again.

Looking back at.....1998 AFC U-17 Championship
Asian Champions....... Thailand
Runners Up................ Qatar
Semi-Finalists............ Bahrain, Korea Republic
Oh, the glory days of Thai footballl in the 90's.
Runners up in the 1996 edition as the hosts, to winners in the 98' edition in the desert of Doha, Qatar.
Two succesive apperances in a FIFA World Cup. Boy, the 90's were the days that Thailand struck fear into Asia, with TFB double winners of the Asian Club Chmpionship and Thailand's youth having succesful campaigns in Youth Championships.
What's happened to these day's? The rest of Asia generally picked up and became more professional, we just sat until now, but can we become top dog again? Let's hope so.
So, to as the title suggested, the 1998 AFC U-17 Championship.
Hosted at the 18,000 capacity Grand Hamad Stadium, more likely known throughout West Asia as the Al Arabi Stadium, and host to Al Arabi Sports Club.
The competition featured 10 teams. Thailand qualified by winning qualification group 9, played in Chonburi and featured Indonesia, Singapore and Brunei, which in this day and age would be your AFF Youth Championship.
Qualification was secured with 25 goals in 3 games, something to be feared and rightly so.
The 1998 championship featured two groups of 5 teams. Top two teams advance to the semi-final stage.
Group Table:
Group Results
Impressive early victories against Iran and Iraq gave the young lads the confidence to battle through to the next round......
Semi's & Final
Bahrain proved to be no match at all for the firing 'War Elephants'. All that stood in the way now, was a rematch with host's Qatar.
Thailand kept their nerve and duly won 3-2 on penalties and were crowned Kings of Asia. All that waited now, was the FIFA Youth Championship world Cup!!

Relooking at Rattana Bundit
You may remember the previous article I did on 1st November.
http://thaifootballnews.blogspot.com/2009/11/time-for-closer-look-atrattana-bundit.html
Well, you may remember that they have previously played under the names of SET FC and BMA FC. You can now add Rattana Bundit to the former names list.
Chang, the beer elephant company took sponsorship of the club and in turn renamed them as Chang Chiangmai RBAC, and of course, did the customary move.
Now what is puzzling me, is that Chiang Mai already have a team and a well supported team at that. Is it possible that these two teams have merged together? The club badges would make it look so. Oh well, still waiting for anything official in the English written media!

National Team News
I have been informed that the Indian national team are looking to setup a training camp in Bangkok with an eye on playing the Thai national team in February as they build up to the 2010 AFC Challenge Cup. Nothing as of yet is confirmed, but preperations are being made.
The Challenge Cup is for developing footballing nations.
It could be suggested that once their here, they would want warm up games against club sides aswell, of which i feel would be a good test for our clubsides.
