I think this week will show us which team out of PTT and Suphanburi have serious credentials’ of breaking into the top 5. I think one of these teams can sneak into the top 3 and go up into the Premier League. A loose for either or a draw as well will certainly set them back.
Suphanburi certainly have goals in them, but they also leak goals at an alarming rate aswell. PTT have a very strong defence, but fail to score on many occasions. This should be an interesting matchup.
The other fixtures this week seem to be top of the table against the lower half of the top. So going on league standings, you can probably pick out your winners, but there’s always a surprise somewhere. Where will it be this week? I going for a Thai Airways surprise victory of the Royal Thai Navy.
What do you think??

Chanvit - National Coach -2005 to 2008
You may rememebr the recent post i did on our National coach Chanvit Phalajivin. Will he, or won't he quit.
Well, once again, he has played his quit card.
His final game should be against Oman on the 22nd of this month.
Who will take his place if he does keep his word? All this fiasco started way back in April, view my post way back then. My thoughts are still to keep it within the Thai family and bring in Chonburi coach Jadet Meelarp, Tobacco manager Gawin Kachendecha or even KTB coach Attaphol Buspakom.
But running the national team, or Thai teams in general are a bit different.
You tend to have a Manager who kind of just sits around and rings the players up to tell them they are in or out and then you have the coach who does the training but more than likely does not pick the team. Time will tell who comes in. But i guess it will go to someone who doesn't know the Thai game at all.
Who's your top choice?

Division One took centre stage this weekend and as I told you before, keep an eye on The Royal Air Force, they beat Sriracha this weekend, i expect the Air Force to make the top three this year and get promotion.
Mueng kept there charge towards the top flight on track and keep a 5 point gap to 4th place, but they certainly want to go up as champions. It's very close at the top, and i'll get Wikipedia updated to show the current league table within the enxt couple of days.
Down at the bottom, Rattan Bundit and Raj-Vithi could not seperate themselves, so both couldn't move up any further. But generally, in the bottom half of the table, i expect PTT FC to move closer to the top, in which they look like doing, and maybe just might be very dark horses for a promotion push. Next week they take on Suphanburi, who is another of my long tips, so next week will show us, just who can go the furthest, personally, i would like to see Suphanburi win it and go up. No other game really sticks out at this point, as they all seem to be top/bottom affairs

Well, it's finally over, our World Cup dreams in tatters. But to be honest, it was just about over when we failed to pick up 3 points against Oman in the second group game. A win then, could have changed the whole compleion of the group and certainly made the home and away games against Bahrain very vital.
So, the dream is over, and Brazil 2014 is now the aim. In between, we have our ASEAN Championships, to prove we are kings of our region and we also have the Asian Cup to qualify for, but that will more than likely be a struggle aswell, as there are not too many places up for grabs, and with the best of the region already entered and a couple of slots going to developing nations, then this might just prove another step to far. But we must get there to stay with the elite of Asia. Failure to qualify will put us backa numbe rof yeras.
