PHUKET: The stands rumbled with a crowd of about 10,000, the fans urged on FC Phuket with renewed fervor, but the Hulks just couldn't score in their big match against Songkhla last night.
The 0-0 scoreline was a fair representation of FC Phuket's performance - and characteristic of FC Phuket's first Division One season.
Songkhla, which brought an army of supporters to boost those of FC Phuket at home at Surakul Stadium in Phuket City, were to be Phuket's opponents before the southern province floods forced officials to postpone the match until last night.
Sadly Surakul produced no goals deluge, although there was the occasional intimation that the clouds might open for FC Phuket. Three yellow cards remained the only symptom of a scoreline, two for Songkhla and one for FC Phuket.
Fans would not have been disappointed. FC Phuket, in ninth position, always looked threatening against Songklha, in fourth spot. But there was no magic roar to celebrate a goal.
The horizon definitely looks brighter for Phuket, who front up again on Wednesday at Surakul in Phuket City against BBCU in the Toyota League Cup.
