Robson could replace former international team-mate Reid
|
Former England captain Bryan Robson is being lined up to succeed Peter Reid as coach of Thailand's national team.
Reid ended his one-year tenure earlier this week to join Stoke City as assistant to manager Tony Pulis.
Robson, 52, has been out of management since parting company with Sheffield United in February 2008.
Thai Football Association boss Worawi Makudi told the Bangkok Post: "He is interested. I think the chances of him taking the job are more than 50%."
Thailand face crucial back-to-back Asian Cup qualifiers against Singapore in November.

Makudi added: "Everything should be finalised by next week. We want him to come here next month so that he can watch some Thai Premier League matches in the final weeks of the season."
Former Manchester United midfielder Robson, currently a club ambassador at Old Trafford, has managed teams including West Bromwich Albion and Middlebrough.
He has never been in charge of a national side, but was linked with the Republic of Ireland, while a deal to take over as Nigeria manager in 2003 broke down.
Thailand have made a steady start to their qualifying campaign for the 2011 Asian Cup in Qatar after securing draws against Jordan and Iran.
Reid signed a four-year contract in September 2008, and had suggested continuing his role as Thailand coach alongside his work at Stoke.
But Makudi rejected the proposal and his deal was terminated by mutual consent on Wednesday.
