They've been advertising it on their channels. They will supply router and everything. Just give the call centre a call, may solve your problem, if in a condo.

Phoned tech guys as channels still in Thai for BPL. They're on to it and will be done in time for charity shield 11th Aug.

Anyone who follows football league clubs should get GMM. Works on same dish as True. Now all games will be shown on football extra channel, which you have to pay 300bht a month for. Last season all games were on the free sports extra channel. But I've been informed not anymore.

You can also pay at 7/11.

CTH are advertising IPTV. This may get around the issue with condos. Give them a call and ask.

Channels 131-135 now broadcasting. Footy shows in english, review on 135 now. But the red bull racing show is still in Thai. Fingers crossed this will be sorted soon.

Anyone hoping to continue watching at their local pub have got no chance then. Maybe the likes of The U.N Irish in Chiangmai, or the robins hood or pickled liver in bkk. But your bog standard Thai bar just won't be able to stump up enough cash to justify having it. Pretty sure True didn't charge so much.

Won't be many entertainment venues paying those prices I can assure you. I thought it was 3500 one off fee for anything up to 51" screen 5k if projector? Not every month surely!

They've probably just copied and pasted from their website, as they do hold rights in some countries.

BTW, I heard BPL channels will start broadcasting programmes 1st August.

Fox will not show EPL live games on TRUE. CTH have the rights, end of story.

John Dykes is 100% hosting PLTV. Usual pundits + Michael Owen will be joining them. News I heard today is that BPL channels will start broadcasting content from 1st August.

After True's pig's ear of the World Cup English commentary and the complete arrogance, resulting in blank screens of the euros I'm happy to wave goodbye to them!

Not fussed about egg chasing really. I think they'll Defo have some games on TRUESPORT HD2 and during group stage they'll have to use some other true sport channels. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that WETV in Chiangmai will still show it on their Vietnam channels. Last season True agreed to show 24 games of the champions league on channel 9. Fingers crossed they will again. Guess we'll just wait and see. Internet or a late night pub for one of the 5-6 games I watch from this competition a year is also a possibility.

Wrong! GMM have the rights for another 2 years and for the league cup too. Unless TRUE have done a deal. But I doubt it.

I am a tad concerned for Champions league coverage. Some of the group games and K.O rounds were on Thai TV. But from QF stage, last season only on TSHD1 NOT on TSHD2. I was tempted by new internet and TRUE TV supersport package for 899 p/m (only an extra 300bht a month from what I currently pay for TRUE internet). Includes TS8 (for rugby) TS2, TS5 and TS7 + Golf channel, I think ASN and TSHD2. But if the business end of the UCL is only on TSHD1 then what's the point in messing around. I'm hopeful WETV will show the games on their Vietnam channels. They showed Arsenal vs Bayern and the Real Madrid Vs Manyoo games, as well as the final last season. Guess I'll just wait and see. As most the games on at 2am I usually just check footy tube for highlights and prob only get up to watch 5-6 big games a year, so not really worth having a 3rd box and dish for this!

No worries. Next battle will be for the World Cup. RS swearing blind that only 22 games will be on Thai tv. The rest exclusively on their World Cup channel via sunbox. But that's a new thread for next year I think.

Same for me too lite beer!

All good with me. Still noticing a slight bit of interference on some channels. Especially sky news. Anyone else still got this?

My friend at the nation has contacted the CEO's secretary to find out who she needs to speak to regarding english content programming. Hopefully this will insure we get the same deal we got with TRUE.

I've emailed and tweeted the EPL. I've also asked my friend at the nation to ask about english content. As yet no reply. Guess we'll have to wait until kick off to know for sure. If we get no joy I'll try and get the email of a CTH director from my friend. I already have email and phone number for the premier league press officer. Will post here if we get no joy!

Thankfully we have english commentary today!

I'm gonna go out of my mind if I have to watch these muppets do the pre match build up next season!!!! Will march to CTH offices personally demanding the British presenters signal be patched through to one of the other channels, if it's not provided!

What Ts&Cs I don't even remember signing a contract!!!

I think it's more than likely that if you sign up for 3 year deal you're guaranteed current Line up for that period. They will bid for TPL and UCL when those rights come up I'd have thought. If successful then prob have to pay an additional premium for extra channels. New customers may not be offered the free one year deal once the season starts.

I think that may be 60000 new subscribers perhaps, as they already had about 1million with their old system.
