Seventh heaven

Yesterday's round of fixtures marked the end of a marathon 2011 league campaign for the 18 TPL clubs. Champions Buriram PEA drew 2-2 at Chiang Rai United and, at long last, got their hands on the brand new trophy. The main talking point of the day was who would claim the unwanted third relegation spot. Well, Siam Navy were the fall guys, losing 2-0 away at already relegated Sri Racha. Khon Kaen are the other team destined for Division 1 next season.

TOT's surprise 3-2 win over BEC Tero at Thephasadin meant that Thai Port leapfrogged Tero into 7th place, due to our superior head-to-head record against the Fire Dragons. Had it been decided on goal difference, we would have finished 8th. Given the numerous problems that have beset the club this season, a 7th place finish for Port is very respectable indeed!
