Zimbabwe? Dream on...
Earlier in the year Malaysia announced they would play Zimbabwe in a couple of friendlies. Instead what they got was some club side.A few days back the Thais announced they would be playing Oman in an international friendly...despite the fact that the Omanis were playing in Singapore 24 hours later.
Now the Thais fancy a game against Zimbabwe and are promoting it on the official FA website, the game kicking off on Tuesday, the day after tomorrow.
Now comes news from Zimbabwe that they won't be going!
How does this happen? The Thai FA website is still promoting a game for Tuesday even though a Zimbabwe paper says they're not going.
The Thais must have had some idea of when Zimbabwe would be arriving in Bangkok...
It's a bloody good job no Thai fans have gone and booked flights or made other travel arrangements for a game that doesn't exist. Just days after another game that didn't exist, Oman, wasn't cancelled because, of course, how can you cancel something that never existed.
Now, how does the Thai concept face explain this away? A misunderstanding perhaps or something lost in translation?
Seriously, if you want to keep up to date with international friendlies in this region then look out for a guy called Jonny posting on Kallang Roar. He is far more reliable than the respective FAs.

It's also being advertised on Siam Sport TV. Right now!
I'm tempted to go along on Tuesday just to see what happens.
Incidentally, if FAT had acted quickly enough, they could have arranged a game against Oldham this weekend. Our league match with Tranmere was postponed.

Syrians reporting that they will go to Malaysia and play Malaysia Wednesday and Zimbabwe on Friday in Malaysia. Just to make it more confusing...
If they do I wonder what kind of Zimbabwe team that are going to Asia ?
