Hey Buddy, Spare Me Satang

I have a soft spot for Thai Port, mainly because I lived just round the corner from them for many years in my Bangkok days. Football has been kind to them recent years winning the FA Cup in 2009 and the League Cup in 2010.

The start of 2011 saw a new investor talking big money but negotiations are still on going with players not having been paid for a while now.

They sit 14th in the 18 team TPL with just two wins and six goals.

Today they play Samut Songkram in what will be coach Sasom Pobpraserd's 100th game in charge at PAT Stadium. Rumours are rife he has been targeted by 1st Division team Buriram and he has admitted informal discussions have taken place.

Plenty of more gossip about Thai Port can be found on the Thai Port blog.
