NongKhaiKid Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Thais have suddenly discovered they're ' lifelong ' LC fans and I'm disappointed the club hasn't yet been described as a Thai team. Maybe they have and I've just not seen it. Thainess at it's best to grab any excuse to jump on a success bandwagon. I'm trying to think any other foreign owned team that has been paraded through the capital city of the owners' home country, teams visit yes but no parades. For example has Chelsea ever had a bus top parade in Moscow ? Now all LCFC has to do to keep their legions of new adoring fans is to maintain the Thai connection and continue to be successful otherwise the fans will re-discover they are actually lifelong fans of the latest top team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies, I'm not British and if not being British makes a person ignorant then so be it. I was only asking a question. Anyway I Google it and noticed the won the grand final in England. We don't get English sports on T.V and soccer is only a minor game in Australia and doesn't get any mainstream television coverage only on a small foreign language station that nobody watches. Our main sports that get television coverage are football,rugby, cricket, golf, tennis and motor sports. Again my apologies, I was only attempting to join a conversation that is why I asked a question, no offence was intended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
