Ummmm, The man upstairs heard my cry for help, the farmer and books are in front of me.....the pressures on....it's a long and winding road that leads to the top guys were just started the race, test of skill and nerves, I'm sure books will drop his bundle around round 8 when he gets cocky, meanwhile the effervescent farmer stuck out in the sticks will be a little harder to pin down me thinks.....

Got give it to the saints, only one on the bench but they kept going, ran pressured and hit hard. I thought we were gone after losing 3. Mc Cartin being diabetic, his blood sugars dropped so doubt full if he can ever play more than a quarter of football.

Well I've gone for the saints and dogs this week. What is it with the Chinese writing on the back of the Port jumpers? What does it say/mean? Has the team been purchased by China?

At least they don't look western

The guy really has a dislike of the west and everything western apart from western currency. So anyone in dresses in western clothing and dances to western music like the girls in the photo will be arrested. Has he gone completely mad? What next, is he going to send his goons out to arrest all farangs for harbouring ghosts in thier homes.

Actually, for once i agree with him.western culture like showing tits at festivals and 'Girls Gone Wild' like behavior has no place in a modest, values based religious country. It is a cancer that eats at any cultural fabric. Where i have issue with his statement is the fact that he percieves that provocative dancing, lewdness (going topless or naked in public) is something that all foreigners approve of. He would be shocked to know the vass majority of westerners have the same view of inappropriate behavior. It comes down to what Thais want to teach their children and what they allow them to be subjected to and influenced by. Look at what Sprng Break has become. The hundreds of rapes and assualts because everyone is allowed to to be out of control.What people need to understand is this is a celebration of Thai culture and if you want to participate in it then have respect for the ancient ritual. It really is not about riding around on trucks and drenching each other with ice water. I like Thai culture and i dont want Songkran to become another Spring Break.

Don't anybody dare celebrate with a little flashing in the streets but it is perfectly okay to stage live fire zones in the streets...little general's big priorities.

You are so unkind :

-they made the motosoi have a new jacket!

-They put more clothes on the motor show pretty girls

-They made a park in Hua Hin

- they forbid red bowls

- ....

In reality he actally has a point, Songkran has been hijacked by the western white devils the faflang,,,

Songkran is celebrated differently in different cities, and differently by different people, eg, Pattaya v Chiang Mai, children in a small village v lady boy's and hookers on pick up's, which by the way is illegal as of last year by order of the PM.

Now if you prefer to celebrate Songkran in a more traditional way then maybe give Pattaya etc a miss. live and let live.

Unfortunately this (_____) thinks he has the wright to dictate to the rest of the country how to celebrate under threat of gaol.

Judging by the Prime Minister`s remarks it does display the fact that Farlang expats are still considered as complete outsiders and will never be an acceptable part of Thai society. Or may be I`m reading too much into this?

Or maybe you just didn't comprehend what you read. He was talking about Thai fugitives living abroad, not expats in Thailand.

Ye'p I read it that way also, but it can be interpreted just as cyberfalang said, "ghost's that have taken refuge in falang houses"

No mention of over seas. also can a so-called falang be a falang in his/her own country? nit picking ok ok my bad.

Now if you would be so kind as clearly your mind is in sync with this plonker, please explain to us with far less in common with your hero the PM unlike yourself, the bit were he say's, there's a lot of weird things but he can not do anything about them because it's about democracy...

go on mate give it a crack, please......

And sure it's ok if you think you can manage it, then you can even use some big boy words as well.

He's certainly enjoying himself these days,

Returning Happiness to the People Junta Style and taking every chance to put the boot into foreigners.

You got scammed lady. What idiot would jump into something online asking for money? You have bugger all chance of getting your money back and there is probably other idiots sending this thai woman money for the dog that she is probably abusing for profit.

Those damn farangs again, this time harbouring ghosts

Cowards, 7 onto 1. No thai ever seems to go one on one, always need a pack of dogs.

Well... I'd rather consider these so dressed women as the real victims, Would I - as a woman- be unfortunately been born in a country where women are so treated, I'd try to escape and migrate.

Never had prostitution in Thailand before so I'm glad they got on top of this before it spread across the country.

Watching the saints live. McCartin the useless piece of excrement who is suppose to be Saint Nicks replacement is an enbarrasment again. 3 years and only 7 games from a number 1 pick. Nick was a star in his 2nd and captain in his 3rd yr. Bloody wastes of space in Mc Cartin, freeman and carlyse who could we have had now. Dump McCartin he is useless

3 losers from last week, winners this week

Might be a hard season for the demons

Going to Etihad Stadium tonight to watch a true champion play his 300th game. Hopefully it will be a big one for Saint Nick.

Very strong American accents, sure these violent people aren't yanks?

Seen it on a number of occasions, thai man slaps and yells at his wife/girlfriend in public places and nobody ever batters an eyelid. You also see it frequently on Thai soaps. This maybe a reason why some educated thai women want a farang man, they want a little respect.

Couple of interesting stats for this week:

* The 9 teams that won last week, play the 9 teams who lost last week

* Of teams who has started the season 0-2 (last 5 years) only 1 of those teams out of 26 have made the finals...That was Sydney

So 9 teams want to avoid starting the season 0-2

Did you know all the winners from last week are playing the losers from last week? Going to be hard to tip.

Try and keep up Chooks
