A rather scrappy 1-0 win, away to struggling Siam Navy on Sunday, might not have been their most convincing performance of the season but it was another big step towards Buriram’s first title. The victory, with a first half goal from super striker Cameroon's Franck Ohandza, saw the Thunder Dome cement their lead at the top of the league to 13 points with just nine matches to go. 

A near capacity crowd saw an impressive performance by the home side ultimately count for nought as Thailand’s World Cup qualifying campaign suffered a major blow against Australia. It will be an Australian side that will feel fortunate to be leaving the Supachalsai stadium with all three points after they were outplayed for long stretches by a disciplined Thai side who were comfortable and assured but once again shot themselves in the foot by failing to capitalize in front of goal.

In case you've been living in the bush for a while, or maybe a flooded home, a reminder that Thailand will be facing Australia tonight at the Suphachalasai Stadium (BTS National Stadium). The game which kicks off at 6pm is now a must win for the Thai team after their comprehensive 3-0 defeat against Saudi Arabia saw them slip to third in the group. 

Thailand’s attempts to reach the next stage of World Cup qualifying suffered a major blow last night as they went down 3-0 away to Saudi Arabia. It was always going to be a challenge and in the end Frank Rijkaard's Saudi’s greater experience and fitness was decisive as they scored all three of their goals in the second half. 

Just a quick note to apolgise for the lack of posts of late. The truth is the floods have had a major effect on the TPL schedule over the last couple of weeks. Now there is another long lay off due to the SEA Games currently taking place in Indonesia. We promise to be back up and running next week when we look ahead to important World Cup Qualifying games that see Thailand away at Saudia Arabia before a mouthwatering home tie against Australia on November 15.

With Bangkok bracing itself for high tides and floodwaters this weekend, the Thai FA have decided to postopone this Saturday's League Cup Final between Buriram and Thai Port to an as yet undisclosed date. It's still not clear what TPL games are going to be played this weekend, though as we write this, Bangkok Glass' game against Sisaket and Osotspa versus Samut Songkhram have already been called off.

Just a day after he took over the reins as coach of Muangthong United, Robbie Fowler saw his team get off to a winning start with a comfortable 3-1 win away against SCG Samut Songkhram. The former Liverpool legend was appointed caretaker coach after the departure of previous manager Henrique Calisto. He played all 90 minutes as Muangthong moved up to second thanks to goals from Dagno Siaka, Teerasil Dangda and Nataporn Phanrit. 

Buriram maintained their stranglehold on the top spot of the TPL after a hard fought and slightly luck 1-0 win over Thai Port yesterday. A packed and vociferous PAT stadium watched an absorbing and entertaining game which saw both sides create plenty of chances. In the end, only a close range Franck Ohandza strike could separate the two teams, thanks in no small part to the excellent performance of Thunder Dome keeper Sivaruk Terdsungnern who pulled off a string of fine saves including a first half penalty block.

Thai Port might have lost 1-0 to lowly 2nd division opponents Pattalung last night but they still make the final of the Toyota League Cup thanks to their 3-0 home win in the first leg. It's the second year running that they've made the final and will come as a welcome boost after a trying season that's seen their manager and some of their best players leave amidst financial uncertainity. It's still unclear who they will meet in the final, currently set for at 5pm on October 15 at Suphachalasai Stadium, as Chonburi and Buriram still need to play the second leg of their semi-final.
