BANGKOK (28 April 2008) – The scoreless draw at home was hardly impressive but it was enough to give Chonburi FC the top spot in the Thai Premier League 2008 – just ahead of BEC Tero Sasana.
With BEC Tero’s away match against TOT FC postponed to another day, the one point Chonburi picked up against Coke Bangpra was enough for them to go top of the standings with just a point advantage. Both Chonburi and BEC Tero have played nine matches each with Chonburi on 19 points while BEC Tero have picked up 18 points. Third-placed TOT FC, who have played a game less, are on the same 18 points as BEC Tero. In the meantime, basement side Army FC scored only their second point of the new season when they held Tobacco Monopoly to a 1-1 draw at home. CURRENT THAI PREMIER LEAGUE 2008 STANDINGS 1.
