Thailand sports news: Robson in, Rafa out

September 24, 2009

Just wanted to draw your attention to two Thailand sports stories:

  1. A conclusion to the Peter Reid saga: Ex-Manchester United midfielder Bryan Robson is the next coach of the Thailand national soccer team. BBC has the details, and here’s more from the Nation and the Bangkok Post.
  2. Tennis news: Rafael Nadal has pulled out of the Thailand Open due to an abdominal injury. The AP has more in this short item.

    It’s not the most adventurous appointment, I think the English FA and Reid had a big hand in choosing him.

      Hmm. Interesting, Jon. It sounds like there was also some support for Steve Darby, the assistant/caretaker.
