Mr. Warong said, “The first point I would like to talk about is the development of competition controllers. This is the time when we have seminars for the contestants of all levels. Is the introduction of new information Or what happened in the past Let’s exchange In order to develop in acting as a representative of the tournament management “
“Another story is about the competition program between Singha Chiang Rai United and Port FC on December 22, we have received a letter from Singha Chiang Rai United that is not yet ready. Because they just left detention on December 20, which I must say before Football is not just a small component. But is a large sector with many stakeholders From the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) to the domestic league “
“One thing that management has always given policy Is a matter of looking at the big picture That we have to focus on To a small picture That we cannot ignore Chiang Rai Story We have information for a long time that They represent Thailand. Who has the right to play AFC Champions League, which the Thai League and those involved have not neglected in working with the club. Because representing the country is important And having a good performance in the international arena Will raise the level of competition in the country Enhance the image of Thai football standards for international recognition Which we are not disappointed with the work of Chiang Rai Even if they are eliminated But has a good performance This is due to the collaboration of the club with the Thai League That have been discussed throughout “
“We know that this is an unusual year. A COVID-19 outbreak has occurred. Make the competition have a different format Chiang Rai must travel to Qatar And have to play to the fullest by the AFC when we know and discuss with Chiang Rai How to compete So that they are least affected Initially, it was proposed for the October race at FIFA Day. But Chiang Rai is still not very convenient Finally came to fit in November Where they meet Politeiro, Muang Thong and Sukhothai, with all three clubs cooperating well in the midweek. Which in fact They wouldn’t want to find such a tight program. “
“Before Chiang Rai traveled to the race We talked about the detention facility. Because when going to compete abroad According to the measure of the Commission. They had to be detained for 14 days. Chiang Rai himself tried to find a detention facility where he could perform light training, which we are pleased to say. When they have left the detention facility At first we expected them to come out on December 19th, but when it was December 20th, Benjamin spoke to Chiang Rai again. Before they choose December 22 “
“Later, Chiang Rai sent the book That they are not ready to enter the field Because not practicing at all We ourselves understand the reasons and necessities. But there are three reasons why we still have to kick on December 22nd because we have to submit the AFC Champions League list to AFC by B. Gepum and the Port Authority, we sent it successfully. Because they have already played in the group stage and the other 2 teams, Chiang Rai and Ratchaburi, have the same score now So we have to organize a competition to know who is 3rd or 4th place and the ranking affects the competition. Because the 3rd team will play one qualifying round, but the 4th place has to play 2 games, so the 4th place will be at a slight disadvantage. Which is one reason “
“Another story It is about the registration of athletes in the 2nd leg on December 23, we will have athletes registered. Ratchaburi itself if playing normally ends, and Chiang Rai if we have to postpone the race after December 22, that means their athletes will be another set. Many people may look at it a little. But in professional football matches Every detail is important to the overall result. Which when changing or adding athletes to Though we cannot know that it will be good or bad But it is a matter of inconsistent with the first leg game. “
“Another matter is the impact. If Chiang Rai takes the game to the second leg, it will affect the competition program. Originally, we placed the league program to end by April 3, but when the AFC Announcing the new AFC Champions League program, we have to cut the race faster on March 20, which has a definite impact on the Thai League teams. Because now there are 3 weeks midweek games and if Chiang Rai moves out May add more midweek programs “
“When there are more midweek games There will be problems in VAR following from the original, we will use it over the weekend. Which can be distributed But when it is neutral week Cannot be used enough Until causing the question of which game to use Causing the competition committee to discuss Both representatives of athletes Club representatives from all leagues Until there is a conclusion that Midweek games will be adjusted to match days to Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in order to minimize the impact of VAR from the team. “
“This is the 3 main reasons why we have to insist Sing Chiang Rai and the Port Authority to compete on December 22 as before. Because this affects all Not just another club Related Also including Chiang Rai itself That may have to experience the effects of a more compact game But we do not block the program in any way “
“We have received feedback from football fans about the midweek game. Because there were many midweek games Few of the fans entered the field. The impact on clubs that have to play frequently Football fans themselves do not have the purchasing power to watch the game lately. Because it may be burdened by work Or other matters But we have to look at opinions from other clubs. Related What opinions about the programs that may change Or will there be any impact in the future or not as well “
