2008

The 2007 Thai Premier League had 16 teams, combining the 12 member clubs from the 2006 season, the top two clubs from Division 1, and two clubs from the Pro League 1. The official name of the league at this time was Thailand Premier League.

Matches were normally played on Saturdays with a 4pm kick off time but there were some 5pm or 6pm started and some midweek fixtures. Evening kick offs were rare. The season would have a three-month break from mid-May to mid-August because of the Asian Cup which was being co-hosted by Thailand from July 7–29 and the world university games, the Universiade, in Bangkok from August 8–18.

Normally only the Premier League champions are allowed to take part in the AFC Champions League. However, for the 2007 season, the runners-up would also be admitted due to the late completion of Indonesian domestic league and cup competitions.

Season Notes

Asian Representation

  • League champions Bangkok University took centre stage for Thailand in their first foray into the Asian Champions League, they put up a good fight, losing 3 games and drawing 3 games in an impressive campaign, although they still finished bottom of their group stage. Only one team would be for the Asian Champions League due to the fact that Australia entered the Asian Confederation.
  • Osotsapa would enter the 2007 AFC Cup, the first time a Thai team would enter this competition. They came third in their group, and only 3 points behind the group winners.
  • After reaching the final the previous year, Chonburi made a swift exit from the Singapore Cup getting beat in the first round by Balestier Khalsa. Bangkok University brought back some pride when they duly dispatched of Balestier Khalsa in the Quarter-Final stage before being knocked out by Tampines Rovers in the semi-final.
