Message from Chonburi fan Tim

WONDERFUL DISPLAY OF SPORTSMANSHIP/MTU FANS
From a dedicated Chon Buri fan who attended tonights Thai League Cup 1/4 final second leg at the Yamaha. Forget the result and just congratulate the MTU fans on their tremendous sportsmanship.Pipop was knocked out cold in the first half and as he very slowly regained his senses after a long and worrying delay ( which ended with a trip to hospital) all he could hear was his name being chanted, by the Sharks faithful you ask, NO but by those MTU fans massed immediately behind the Impact Arena end goal close to his penalty area collison and the resposive applause for that act of consideration rang out from the Chon Buri faithful on the side terraces at the other end of the stadium.
Throughout the match and especially at the end the rival fans were always quick to chant the opposition teams name and those of individual players and it was a privilege to be at the Yamaha tonight where the two sets of fans certainly displayed all that is best in Thai soccer and the overall experience was quite something to witness both in and around the stadium. WELL DONE MTU and especially so as the final result just went against your team in the end but in no way did that deter or diminish the ovation that was given to the visiting Chon Buri team. YOUR SPORTSMANSHIP WILL REMAIN WITH ME FOR A LONG TIME

IF THIS COULD BE FORWARDED ONTO THE MTU BLOG THE FANS NEED TO KNOW THAT THEIR TREMENDOUS SPORTSMANSHIP WAS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED BY ALL SHARKS FANS AT TEH YAMAYA AND ADDED TO THE EXCITEMENT AND ATMOSPHERE OF A TREMENDOUS EVENING AT THE YAMAHA

  1. Totally agree. The home fans were terrific last night. Friendly before the match, sporting during the match and gracious in defeat after the match.

    Thanks for contributing to a great occasion.
