2006–2009
Bangkok Glass FC was founded in 2006 and played in the Khǒr Royal Cup, the fourth level of the Thai football league. In the beginning of the 2009 season, the club bought the franchise of Krung Thai Bank F.C. in order to compete in the Thai Premier League. The club then started the pre-season under the name of Raj-Vithi-BGFC in the 2009 Queen's Cup in the match against Haaka-Sriracha FC. The team was made up of players from Bangkok Glass FC, trialling players with the potential to play in the Thai League. In their first Premier League season, the club was managed by Hans Emser, a German Head Coach. Under his service, the club was unbeaten for twelve league games in a row. He was a successful coach from Bangkok Glass FC with a points average of 2,33. Nevertheless, Emser himself declared that he preferred to work with the youth team rather than the senior team.
