Jamie Pinder, representing Buriram Utd, is next up with his views on the recently concluded season.
What are your overall impressions of your club’s season?
Umm… what can I say?
What did your club get right on and off the field?
Everything. There’s no better run club in the Thai league.
And what did they get wrong?
I’d still like to see some fan involvement in the match day experience. Fans are a part of the ‘team’ and often have great ideas on how to improve enjoyment.
Who have been your best players this season?
Peeradon has been outstanding and is very underrated. I hope he stays for another year.
And who hasn't performed?
All those who were shipped out in December.
Which was your favourite away trip?
Only managed one this year due to work. I joined a rather gangster like group of expats on the trip to Korat.
What was the best thing that happened to you whilst supporting your club this season?
Not the best, but this year we saw three great players leave our league. Great servants of the game and all 3 I’ve had the pleasure of seeing in a Buriram United shirt; David Rochela, Andres Tunes and, the best ever, Diogo Luis Santo.
What are your impressions of the league overall this year?
Not wanting to repeat last year’s comments, all looked good heading into mid season. A potentially tight title race didn’t evolve but great to see Bangkok United getting closer to the champions. Sad to see Korat going down as it’s a top road trip. Most disappointing also to see Chonburi failing to secure 7th spot.
Which T1 team most impressed you?
I think Bangkok United are heading in the right direction, as are Port. Any team that can come into my house and trash it deserves respect.
What has really annoyed you about Thai football this season and why?
The lack of coverage on tv. You’re never going to entice fans back without putting the product on tv.
Finally, what message would you like to give to your fellow Buriram Utd fans and fans of Thai football.
Keep the faith. Keep supporting your local team and keep going to the games. All the teams need our support.
