Sandpit Songs of the Season: Week 11 – PT Prachuap FC

Port face surprise package PT Prachuap FC at the PAT this evening, hoping to end a run of defeats that could see coach Jadet receiving whatever the Thai equivalent of a P45 is. Presumably a pat on the back & a case of Snail White.

Prachuap’s nickname is The Killer Wasps. Quite why you’d want to name your team after the biggest arseholes in the insect world – a creature so shitty it hangs around bins and can’t even respect the sanctity of the pub beer garden – is beyond me; maybe wasps have a more revered status in Thailand.

Understandably given their reputation there are very few songs about wasps, but there is of course a band called W.A.S.P (it stands for We Are Sexual Perverts apparently), so this week we’re going with their most famous song, a tender romantic ballad that hopefully describes what Dragan ‘The Beast’ Boskovic is going to do to their defence. But I doubt it.
