Saturday final Home Game of the season for Sakon FC

The final home game was to be hosting Khon Kaen. That was switched around at the beginning of the season as 'their field was in disarray.'

Sakon FC hosts Buriram this Saturday and is on the road for the final three games. Aug 12 at Loi City, Aug 19 at Sisaket, Aug 26 at Khon Kaen

Media event ?

Went to the lake to check if it had risen any. No change since last night.
That water pump on display in the parking lot yesterday, was being shown off this morning in action. Think mostly a camera opportunity. The path was quite muddy. I stayed on solid surface for these shots

Which month is the wettest

Looking back the last decade, Sakon Nakhon's wettest has been mostly July and August. Later in the season the flooding tends to head south, Ayutthaya, Bangkok, Pattaya, and others. 
There have been many changes to recent weather patterns, best bet is to keep an eye on the storms forming and the paths they are following.

Mirracles do happen

Busy schedule for Sakon FC.  Three games in seven days.  Yesterday's home game turned into a win during the last minutes.
Water on the field made for plenty of excitement. Lots of slipping and sliding of players and no bounce for the ball.




I had previously mentioned that  It's not impossible Sakon FC defeated the number one team in the league 2-1. It was only the second defeat of the season for Muang Loei.
