Mixed fortunes for Thai-owned clubs | Bangkok Post: news


Three clubs -- Leicester City, Sheffield Wednesday and Oxford United -- have full Thai ownership while there is a 25 percent stake in Reading. Having made the play-offs in the previous two seasons, fans of the Owls were hoping for possible promotion this time around, but it was not to be. In his autobiography, Sven: My Story, the Swede talks about his relationship with the Thai owner which was not entirely smooth, although he liked Thailand and the Thai people. The Thai owner called the display "shameful" and Eriksson was booted out. However, many City fans felt the players had gone on an unspoken "strike" because they were unhappy with the chairman.
