On the 9th of January, 2012 it was announced that Thai Premier League side Buriram PEA owner Newin Chidchob would buy out promoted Thai Division 1 League side Buriram F.C. . After Chidchob bought the club he sold the rights to Songkhla F.C.. Chidchob's reason for selling the rights to Songkhla F.C. was to help provincial football stating that Southern Thailand was the only area in Thailand that had never had a Thai Premier League side. After Songkhla F.C. got the rights to the team they requested from the Football Association of Thailand to move the club from Buriram Province to Songkhla Province. They hoped to change the name of Buriram F.C. to Wuachon United and to have two Songkhla teams, one competing in the Thai Division 1 League and the other Songkhla F.C. competing in the Thai Premier League. The request to change the name of Buriram F.C. to Wuachon United was approved but the appeal to move the team to Songkhla was not. The Football Association of Thailand stated that Songkhla F.C. did not have a valid reason to move the team to Songkhla Province. Wuachon United will play all their home games in Buriram Province and Songkhla F.C. will still remain a Division 1 side but all their players will be transferred to the new Wuachon United.

On 20 May 2012, for the match Wuachon 1-4 Muangthong United, the highest attendance at Tinsulanon Stadium of 30102 was recorded.
