That's interesting dozer. Although its negligible, I've often wondered if the people in that stand have to pay admission. Is it free?

[Big Boy]

Not looking so good now. Strengthening the team when we were top of the table has seen us slip 3 points behind Muangkan, and no longer looking like a promotion side

By the way, my comment aren't just reflecting Saturday's home match, but the 2 previous matches as well.

I park and pay at the usual entrance and then walk round, there's never more than 10 or so guys there.

[Big Boy]

Thank you - you've solved one of life's mysteries for me

Were you there the day the tree came crashing through the roof?

[dozer]

No, I have not been going as regular this season, but it's great to see so many Farang now attending, many a time before I would be the sole representative of the Farang tribe.

It is free as far as I know. We had 6 family members sitting there in the first half. They then moved into the opposition end of the stand for the second half. Their cousin was playing for Rajapruk so it made sense to keep away from us.

Yes, its a great shame - they've got some big name backers, I'd have thought they would advertise to Farang as well. I do my best to give the team a higher profile, and I really love the carnival atmosphere, but they could promote themselves better.

Looks like the bottle has well and truly crashed doesn`t it. I am not sure the players they added have improved the team. From what I saw last week it has caused confusion with players playing out of position and these players should have been introduced gradually and not all at once. I have to say I was not impressed with any of the new guys last week but that really was a bad day at the office. They have to realise that they are on a good salary and are just not doing it. Sadly it doesn`t look as if it was any better this week. At the end of the day it is down to the Coach and he seemed unable to create any belief in the players that they can actually get a shot at goal never mind winning a game from what I saw last week. Having said that I will be back next week!!

[Big Boy]

Yes, I agree about the coach. He doesn't seem to have much idea when Plan A doesn't work. We must not forget thatvthis is the same man who had a bench full of substitutes earlier in the season, but when a player was carried off injured early in the second half, he forgot to put on a replacement, meaning we played about 40% of the game a man down.

As for the new players (don't know the names yet), but:

- Goalie. Yes our old goalie was worthy of Scottish football for the first couple of games, but he turned into a half decent shot stopper by the end. he even learned to catch the ball.

- No. 5. He had some nice touches, but didn't seem to have integrated to with the team, and was often found wanting when looking for somebody to pass the ball to.

- No.17. A big player, who I thought was going to terrorise the opposition. He was enthusiastic, but for a big guy he was brought down too easily. He had the skill of a carthorse. What was the coach thinking when he switched him to the wing .

Hopefully, it will change, but it isn't looking good yet.

[Davy B]

Ha ha ha!! I cannot believe he didn`t put a substitute on after the guy was carried off. It is a fundamental error and likely to have cost the team the game. It is inexcusable and laughable. If you did that in your job you would be out of a job!! I watched him last week and although several players were well below par he couldn`t bring himself to make any relevant substitutions. Is he scared to sub Anucha because he is a fans favourite because he had an absolute shocker? It maybe indicates he has no faith in the substitutes to come on and maybe change the game. Lets hope they do some target practice this week!!

[Big Boy]

Oh how the mighty are falling! Joint 2nd, 4 points behind the leaders
