On 1 December 2015, he was promoted to be the interim manager again after the resignation of Manuel Cajuda.[5] Rangsan managed the club in the last three games of 2015 season with the record of 2 wins and 1 loss. The club set to relegate to Division 1 according to the final standing but still remained in top league after the withdraw of Saraburi from the competition.
