Diary of a Thai football season

2024/2025 Fixtures

Can a squad of young players bring a run of three relegation (or near-relegation) seasons to an end?



(All fixtures are Thai League 2 unless stated)

Sat 10th August 

Mahasarakham SBT 2-0 Samut Prakan (attendance: 1,644)

A threadbare Samut Prakan squad of just 13 eligible players fought bravely but fell to an opening weekend defeat in a game low on quality and goalmouth incident. A goal in each half for The Purple Crabs did the damage on what was an unbearably humid evening.   

Sun 18th August 

Samut Prakan 3-2 Trat FC (attendance: 349)

Fans were treated to a five goal-thriller at the Latkrabang 54 Stadium, Samut Prakan's new home ground for the season. Narongrit Kamnet's terrific injury time winner capped an incredible second half team performance and sealed victory for the home side after Trat FC looked to have rescued a point with a 90th minute equaliser from Phillerson.

Sat 24th August 

Chonburi 1-0 Samut Prakan (attendance: 4,459)

Samut Prakan made the short journey south to take on the league leaders and title favourites Chonburi. After an even first half in which the visitors probably had the better chances, the Sharks moved up a gear in the second period and a 64th minute goal from Derley proved to be enough to settle the contest. This was something of a free hit for Samut Prakan though.


Sun 1st September 

Samut Prakan 0-0 Chainat Hornbill (attendance: 489)

A forgettable goalless draw with neither side deserving three points, but thankfully the rain kept off until just after the final whistle. The attendance of 489 was a significant and encouraging improvement on the first home game.
