After denying sending a tweet with a mocking tone on Twitter , Thai soccer club Chonburi FC praised Persib Bandung as one of the great soccer teams in Southeast Asia.
The statement was made by Chonburi on their Instagram account as an apology for the behavior of fans who mocked the new Persib jersey.
Chonburi also apologized for the misunderstanding that occurred on social media involving Persib and accounts that claimed to be Chonburi fans.
"On behalf of the Chonburi Football Club, we apologize profusely. There were some misunderstandings last night. Someone used the club logo and the club name as a Twitter profile and tweeted about Persib Bandung's latest shirt [one of our great neighbors in ASEAN soccer] , "said Chonburi's official statement via their Instagram account: @chonburi_football_club.
Previously, a popular Twitter account in the name of @chonburi_fc insinuated the new Persib jersey has too many sponsor images.
"Persib's new kit. I have read novels that have less text than this," wrote @chonburi_fc while uploading photos of the latest Persib jersey.
The tweet then received many responses from Bobotoh who were offended by Chonburi's statement.
The management also made sure that they would trace and find out who had acted on behalf of Chonburi on Twitter.
"Chonburi FC would like to make it clear that the club does not have an official Twitter account. We soon hope to find the people who have used the club's account name with the wrong purpose. We apologize and hope that you can accept the apologies we submit," Chonburi management said.
Even so, it is not uncommon for Bobotoh to also question Persib's new sponsor filled jersey. Some fans of the club even say that Persib's brand-new jersey is like a billboard and say Persib is the club which has the most sponsors.
"Is that a jersey or billboard?" wrote the @okkipribadi account.
