Chulalongkorn University FC is a club based at
Chulalongkorn University in
Bangkok, Thailand. They have played in the
Chula–Thammasat Traditional Football Match since 1934. In 2004, "Chulalongkorn University FC" was combined with "Sinthana FC" and took the name "Chula–Sinthana FC," which played in
Division 2 in 2005 until Chula-Sinthana FC was promoted from
Division 1 to
Thai Premier League in 2008. In August of the
2008 season, they changed their club name again from "Chula–Sinthana FC" to "Chula United". The Club Director was Kasiti Kamalanavin. Chula's return to the top flight, the
2008 Thailand Premier League, ended with them finishing in a creditable 8th position. However, they could not build on their first season and were relegated from the
2009 Thai Premier League. Despite having two of the three top goalscorers in the
2010 Thai Division 1 League, Chula could not bounce back at the first attempt and slumped to a disappointing 10th–placed finish. Chula's striker
Chainarong Tathong topped the
2010 Thai Division 1 League goalscoring chart with an impressive 19 goals. Fellow frontman
Aron da Silva netted 15 times to be the 3rd top scorer in the league.
Big Bang Chula United In January 2011, the club changed its name to "Big Bang Chula United" and relocated to play their home games at the
Thai Army Sports Stadium on
Vibhavadi Rangsit Road. The club got off to a flying start and won promotion despite stuttering in the latter weeks of the season. The club's venture in the
2012 Thai Premier League ended with them being relegated after only one season. Home games were played at the sparsely filled 65,000
Rajamangala Stadium with an average home attendance of only 939. In April 2017, the club was dissolved, citing a lack of funds as the reason. This team is automatically banned for 2 years, If the team decides to come back they will be relegated to the lowest tier of the professional league. ==Stadium and locations==
