  1. Why is this game so far out of line with other sports?

    They've only just got goal line technology...why?

    They have 2 linesmen who only cover half the pitch, so if somone wants to dive or dirty tackle there's no linesman there to see it to help the ref!

    There's no Video monitoring official, Why?

    There's only one ref, how many in Aussie rules, American Football or Baseball?

    If there's a foul, you get a yellow card which may affect the next game, but in rugby union you get sin binned for 10 minutes....immediate team punishment!

    If there's an incident the ref doesn't stop the clock and someone later decides how many minutes to add on...that's not very transparent!

    Bearing all these things in mind I think I know what FIFA stands for...Football Is For Antiquarians!

  2. Hi folks,

    just upgraded the set top satellite box OTA and made the mistake of choosing digital TV for the channel search, now I only have 48 channels (albeit in HD), but have lost all the others. Any ideas on how to do a non digital TV search??

    You all know why I am asking here because the help line is non existant!

    Thanks in anticipation!

  3. Thai's, when they move their household back to Thailand can import 1 car tax free as long as it has been in their name in the other country for more then 1 year.

     

    The import tax is around 320% of the value in What Car UK and some other site(check out the customs page, Perkins??) plus the CIF costs(carriage insurance and freight).I brought in an old Merc and managaed to sell it for more than all the costs I paid, but it was a struggle and I hated the bit when we had to interface with the slimy customs official!

  4. Check out 365sport.tv if you have a good internet connection and a computer you can hook up to a TV.

    Just checked their schedule for this weekend, they have a new channel 7 with lots of golf, live and available for up to a week to watch when you want. 600THB/month.

    Can also watch on Tablets around the house etc.

    Also have the world cup and all the Rugby International this weekend!

  5. Just Signed up for a trial with thaiexpat TV and they are the same company that does 365Sport.tv, which, if you have a good internet connection, works really well!

    But 600 THB/ month for each of them!

  6. Nice to see the Army have called the Red Shirt supporting Steal Lady to roll up today to be detained with other Clan Shinawatra supporters!

    Hopefully she will get a dose of her own medicine!

    She was the first one to offer her money to YS for the rice pledging scheme when the banks refused her!

  7. FA Cup tonight 2,5 mins adrift and sound disrupted,

    but for watching stuff on demand, i.e after the event

    e.g super 15 excellent, quality nornally as good as CTH

  8. More and more new cars are now capable of running on E85 ( i.e 85% Ethanol/15% Petroleum) and I am thinking about changing my car. There was a thread here 2 years ago in which everyone confused E85 with Gasohol 95 (95% Petroleum/5% Ethanol) and didn't really answer the question.

    If you can help, where in Pattaya is E85 available, apart from the Lemon Green station on Sukhumvit near Pattaya Klang?
