Muangthong United Issues Statement After Demotion to Thai League 2, Insists This Is Not the End

Muangthong United has issued an official statement after being relegated to Thai League 2 for the first time in 17 years, following a season where they earned just 26 points from 30 matches. Rather than viewing this as a final chapter, the club positions the demotion as a fresh starting point to rebuild a championship-winning team, pledging to keep their core squad of quality players intact while adding talented reinforcements to compete for the Thai League 2 title and secure promotion back to Thai League 1.

In their formal statement to fans and supporters, the club expressed deep regret for failing to meet their objectives this season, which has been described as a challenging year marked by team roster changes throughout the campaign. However, Muangthong United drew parallels to their remarkable rise from Thai League 3 in 2007 to becoming a cornerstone of Thai professional football, including winning the Thai League 1 championship. The club committed to maintaining their disciplined approach to team-building and pledged to work tirelessly to achieve the Thai League 2 title in the upcoming season and return to the top tier.

The statement concluded with a promise to fans and supporters that the club will move forward with determination, making improvements and developments across all aspects of the organization. Muangthong United expressed gratitude to those who have supported the team throughout their 19 seasons and reaffirmed their commitment to setting a positive example for Thai football while taking the next steps forward together.
