UHT Vana Nava Hua Hin City 0 - 1 JW Police

It doesn't matter how well your team played, if they haven't got a decent goal scorer, they're not going to win.

Simples

Hua Hin City could have been there until midnight and wouldn't have scored. We had 2 strikers who knew where the net was. Andre was injured today, and we've loaned Anucha out. The others on the payroll couldn't hit a barn door from 2 yards.

The ref was a as usual.

Champions League is there for Samut Sakhon and Simork to lose now - I am devastated.

I shan't say any more - I'll wait for the rose tinted spectacles version.

todays game can be summed up in four letters crap

Video highlights from yesterday's match

[Geordie Dancer]

Yesterdays disgrace was so bad I am not going to waste my time writing about the match, they don't deserve it. Suffice to say it was an absolute shambles!

[Big Boy]

I've just remembered the absolute stupidity that should have gifted JW their second goal. Last corner of the match, our goalie ventured forward - not into the opposition penalty area, but to the halfway line. A long ball out of defence saw our keeper in no mans land, and all the JW striker had to do was kick the ball into the net. Thankfully the blew for full time to save our embarrassment further.

WTF was the keeper thinking?

[Davy B]

I am lost for words, literally. I have been biting my tongue for several weeks and keeping my feelings about what is going on under my hat. I have been going to follow the team for nearly 2 years. Last year we won the League only to fall short in the Champions League, with what a few of us would say was a pretty decent side, albeit in my opinion short of 2 or 3 other strikers. The main two we had, Anucha and Kitsana, hardly spoke to each other never mind pass the ball to each other, but we nearly got there. The ''new owners'' moved in and promised me, only me it seems, that things were going to look-up for our lovely little club. Everything that Ricardo told me has turned out to be complete bollocks. He mentioned to me about getting Nobby Solano in as a coach, a new purpose built stadium to be built on the by-pass and that Lucas Neill was coming to run a soccer academy as a partner in the business. What a joker. Now to top it all off they have basically walked into TOT SC and introduced our coaching team aswell as our back-up striker, Anucha, to steady the ship that is supposed to be ''Sailing as One''. We have a top coach that doesn't know if it is New York or New Year. He is totally confused as to the goings-on - just like the rest of us. He now has 3 jobs to do. WTF!! Football fans are a fickle bunch but we are no mugs. We are ALL entitled to opinions and just because someone does not agree arguments ensue. We all have the interests of Hua Hin City at heart. We want our club to be playing in the top league against the likes of Buriram, but at what cost? Are we merging with TOT? Are we then going to be called TOT Hua Hin City FC?, What happens if TOT are relegated or Hua Hin do not get promoted, which seems likely after that shambles yesterday, or if these 'owners' abandon ship and get their dream of having a team in the Thai Premier League and we are again left without a rudder!!!!

To me, it spoke volumes when during yesterday's pre-match warm up, he didn't even get as far as the 10 outfield players who were going to make such a hash of the afternoon. He had a kick about with the substitutes for the entire session

In the wake of yesterdays disasterous performance many questions need to be asked of the owners and management of Hua Hin City FC and more importantly need to be answered.

Four weeks ago we were all revelling in the success of beating run away league leaders Samut Sakhon on their own ground to nicely set up our promotion push in the second half of the season. Four weeks on we are a shambles. So what has gone wrong? The finger can only point at one reason, Hua Hins owners and managements involvement with TOT SC, whatever that may be.

As supporters we will all debate and have differing views about games, team selection, team performance, refereeing decisions, tactics, long balls, bad passes, faffing about etc. thats what makes football a great game. The problem now is far deeper rooted than that and the owners and management need to provide answers.

Since Hua Hin got involved with TOT SC the impact has been catastrophic and needs to be explained. A full explanatory press release was promised weeks ago, none has been made. This needs to be done now so everyone understands what is going on.

Everyone may not be aware but our Head Coach Apisit Kaikaew has not been at a training session for four weeks. His only appearances have been on match days. 75% of his coaching staff have not been at training sessions for four weeks. Their only appearances have been on match days. All their time is being spent at TOT. Having said this I would not in any way blame these people they are just carrying out their employers wishes.

Previous to the head coaches "departure" the match day starting eleven would play together for at least 2 days prior to a match. They would work on tactics, specific moves and set plays together in readiness for their opposition. This has not happened prior to the last four games.

Anucha, our only proven alternative striker, has only just returned to fitness and has immediately been loaned out to TOT. Why? it just shows Hua Hin FC are not important.

As an outsider and only a supporter the happenings of the last four weeks show nothing more than Hua Hin City FC have become a bit part player and poor relation in the greater scheme of things. It certainly can't be argued that their needs have been put first. What the greater scheme is, is a complete mystery. Will the clubs owners and management come out and explain their actions? I doubt it.

New Stadium Half a Year On

The shape of the stadium is really starting to take shape now, with the roof on the stand, and much of the clip together seating being put together.

I could see a couple of perceived problems though:

1. There is a gap between the top of the concrete stand and the start of the roof. I've sat in a couple of stands with similar design this season, and believe me when I say it is bloody uncomfortable with the late afternoon sun on the back of the neck through the gap.

2. The lower runs of the clip together seating will make viewing the match almost impossible. I sat on the lower run (and I'm 6' 5" tall, about 12" taller than the average Thai) and filmed what I could see - watch the video, and see if you can spot the problem.

The condition of the pitch continues to improve.

The East End car park construction continues.

I still have significant doubts over the ability of the new stand to handle supporters. I still think it will be for the dignitaries/hangers on (read current VIP area) only.

[Big Boy]

I, and I expect many others agree with everything you say GD (that doesn't happen very often ). Just one question, is the following statement fact or assumption?

All their time is being spent at TOT.

My personal take on this, and I hope that I'm talking crap, follows SS's revelation last week about an end of season merger. If correct:

1. Why worry about the nausea and expense of Champion's League? We've bought a double promotion anyway.

2, Most if not all of the current squad will not hack it in the Premier League, so they're on the scrap heap at the end of the season anyway.
