Match fixing incident

In the last league fixture, Royal Thai Air Force defeated Bangkok Bank of Commerce 10-0 in a match that was widely believed to be fixed, since the result saw Royal Thai Air Force win the league title by a single goal differential.

An investigation led by the Football Association of Thailand saw the Bangkok Bank of Commerce club manager and an assistant be suspended for one year and six months reapectively, while the Bangkok Bank of Commerce club - who also had outstanding debts to the Thai FA - was expelled from the league and shut down.

There was no punishment to Royal Thai Air Force or its personnel, who were found to have no involvement in, or knowledge of, the match-fixing scheme.
