Phuket Fc

[Nigbon]

there has been lots of hype around the creation of Phuket FC this year. They decided to make the club after Phuket's success at hosting the Thai national team in the Kings Cup and SEA Cup. They reckon it's going to be a "real" FC

anyway they are playing their first match at 4pm today. If you in Phuket I reckon it would be worth going to watch.... maybe history in the making
