The following year, the club missed promotion by a margin of just 4 points of the season and finished in fourth place.

This was due to the new requirements by the Thailand Premier League and the AFC, which provides that clubs act as companies and must also be registered as such.

With 65 points from 30 games, the club gained their third promotion, to the Thai Premier League.

In midfield, they were reinforced with the experienced Narongchai Vachiraban and attacked with Nantawat Tansopa.

For the amount of 60 million baht, over a period of three years, the club was nicknamed Insee Police Friends due to sponsorship agreements.

The new home of the club is now the Thammasat Stadium in Pathum Thani Province north of Bangkok.
