It's the news we've all been waiting for and now it's official: Nonthaburi FC are back!
Eka will participate in the Bangkok and Vicinity Division, consisting of 14 teams.
The club still have no major sponsor and as such will continue as per last year, using youth players and almost certainly no foreign players, possibly bar one or two African players.
Naturally, Nonthaburi fans are just delighted to have a team to cheer and I'll be certain to attend as many home games as possible and a few away games, too.
Looking at D2 as a whole, the insanity continues. There are eighty-four, yes, eighty-four teams vying for promotion spots of just three or four places.
When, oh when, will someone inject a tiny bit of logic into proceedings and create an extra division or at least a two-tier RL system?
I like the idea of a two-tier RL system. There would be far fewer clubs per division therefore far fewer games therefore less financial strain on clubs. There'd be fewer mismatches too, not to mention the fact that the ratio of clubs to promotion places would be a lot more palatable.
