Halloween Day Football

"Can Sakon Nakhon  continue to win

สกลนคร Sakon Nakhon

⚽ One day high, how low can it go

Yesterday's Win in Surin 4:2 raised the team standing from 10th to seventh of 13 teams. 

Three scheduled games today could lower Sakon Nakhon's standings. 

My opinion, the Udon game is a given

NEXT: Two Sunday Home Games

It really looked like pro football

Weather bug was the only weather forecaster who got this one correct. Started off sunny, then it got slightly cloudy. A slight breeze and very pleasurable temperature. 
 

The game was fantastic. From the first kick you could tell both teams "meant business." It really looked like pro football.

For me the 'icing on the cake,' when I arrived I was given a jersey allowing me access onto the field as photographer.

Bring raincoat just in case

Hoping the Weather Bug prediction is the right one "cloudy"

Accuweather expects the rain to start right around game time

Visit to Lohakij Field

Had considered heading to the FC playing field, then decided against it, then went as I saw dark clouds approaching from the east. 

Hoped to see some of the new players in action. All the players I wanted to see were sitting on the sidelines.

Be interesting to see who is in the lineup Saturday

Half way home I got drenched in a tropical rain and strong winds. That was yesterday. Today I am keeping all visitors away because of a sore throat

Sakon Nakhon FC 0 at Muang Loei United 1

Watched the game on a Facebook live feed. 

It was exciting and fast paced. 

 

The teams seemed well matched and it appeared to be a draw. 

Loei scored at the last minute of the game

The game can only be viewed on Facebook

No Callbacks yet

I have been registered three times for vaccination, no invites yet.  

I'm suspicious that  the registrations were meant more of an appeasement of the masses because the roll out had a snail like start.

Meanwhile I've lived a semi hermit existence.  I realize the mask is essential for survival with greater emphasis due to my age and health.

I've closed down my pool, now chase away occasional stragglers expecting the free use of the pool.  

There are plenty of  people willing to run errands for me. I only shop monthly myself.

Football game still gets me out of the house. I got this $3,000 zoom lens, helps me keep my distance.

When I start editing through my pictures I often realize there where friends there, I did not spot in real time.

Even though it was a big loss, the game was exiting with plenty of unanimous groans emphasizing the close calls.  I hope they find a fix for whatever went wrong by the time they get on the road to Loei.

Wish I could travel to Loei next week, instead I am praying for a live Facebook feed.

Obviously the elephants had a much better defense

Noted yesterday that something was amiss in regard to live streaming of the game. 

The advertisement 'translated' that AIS would transmit all games. 

Obviously it did not include T3 level.

Then I also did not double check where the game was to take place.  It was not where it had been for the past years.

As luck would have it the game took place at the Municipal (city) stadium, 

about a three minute drive from my house.

The game was already 30 minutes underway when I came across a live stream. I grabbed my camera and keys.

I arrived at the stadium just at halftime and was lucky to find an open gate which slammed shut as soon as I arrived

I arrived at halftime

Obviously the elephants had a much better defense

before the game I noticed a number of players were banned from participating in this game. Most likely some red tape.  The ban was no longer visible after the game.  These players where not listed in the lineup or replacement roster.

Let's hope the next game has a better outcome

Sakon Nakhon

A win would be a nice season opener

If past history is any indication then this season opener should be a win.

But there are some major changes in both teams. Here are the results for the most recent 5 games with album or video links.

• 201219 at Sakon FC 1 Surin City 0
• 201021 Sakon FC 1 at Surin FC 3
• 190731 at Sakon FC 2 Surin City 1
• 190420 Sakon FC 1 at Surin City 2
• 180708 at Sakon FC 2 Surin FC 2

Even though there's been advertising that the game will be televised on AISPLAY, it has not been updated at Thai League as it has been for League 1.  Hoping it's just an update error

Lineup should be posted some time before the game, which I'll be searching for continuously

The season of Football and uninvited Fans

Preseason friendly Saturday, August 21 

Sakon Nakhon True Visions hosted Mahasarakham SBT FC, resulting in a 3-2 loss for the home team 

 There was no Pregame Publicity 

 My question :: "Who is on the home team ❓ 

 From two other pos I read :: "Goals by Montrakarn Chaiwut and Niyom Khamchompoo"

AIS to broadcast 2021 Thai Football season

In recent years it was a hit and miss affair to find Sakon FC live action on Facebook. Season starts next month and most likely fan attendance will be very restricted if any
