Sakon FC starts season off with a loss against Nong Bua Pitchaya

It was not that Nong Bua Pitchaya is the better team, both teams seemed very equal.  The winning goal resulted from a penalty kick.  From where I was sitting the referees call was bad judgement.  Sometimes I wish they had slow motion instant replay. It would have proven my point. Nong Bua Pitchaya fans outnumbered the local fans.  Team management provided seven trucks for the fans. Under normal circumstances the distance can be traveled in three hours. Probably four hours in these truck.  You have to admire Nong Bua Pitchaya  fans. Four hours travel to sit on cement for two hours, then a four hour return trip.  My back is aching just thinking of that 10 hour road trip. Nong Bua Pitchaya fans outnumbered the local fans.    There seemed to be quite a bit extra security for the ballgame.  Obviously it was due to the VIP presence
