History
TOT is a founding member of the Thai Premier League in 1996/97 season and came second in the regular season championship but were defeated by Bangkok Bank FC in the semi-final Championship Playoffs. This has so far proved to be TOT's best campaign.
Besides being relegated to the Thailand Division 1 League in 2003, they have more or less been a middle-ranking team, yet to break into the top four since 1996/97. They have been relegated on two occasions, bouncing back to the top flight at the first time of asking and claiming the Division One championship in the 2003/04 season.
Notable other achievements have been winning the Thailand FA Cup in 1993 and the now defunct Pro League in 2006 with their reserve team.
The accomplishment in the early days of the club is honorably credited to the first well-known coach Mr.Pongphan Wongsuwan.
