bangkok blue

Very interesting.... Although Chiangmai don't play in the Thai Premier league to my knowledge.

He's gone Turkey according to BBC!

Sports bar at the top of that newish shopping complex in front of D2, where Pizza hut is will be open til 5a.m every night according to the owners wife.

It's on Channel 3 for sure.

Can you def get BBC commentary? I tried for 4t round FA Cup and no problem, 5th round last weekend they blocked it for Thailand!

Talksport said they were covering the manyoo game tonight.

So I don't need an outgoing ticket from Thailand or proof of funds for my stay?

Is it as easy as Laos? All I want is a single entry, do I need to show 20k as proof of funds for my trip? Onward flight ticket etc... Thanks for any advice.

Rose Cafe wins hands down for the best English Brekkie in Chiangmai. Fried tomatoes, hashbrown, mushrooms, beans, sausages (British), bacon (British), Eggs (fried or scrambled) two slices of toast, orange juice and two cups of tea/coffee, 140bht!

WETV have the Australian network... Although only available in Chiangmai, not sure how far it stretches to the outskirts of the city though.

It's on Thai TV, with Thai commentary; Ch3 and 7. If you have WETV then they will have English commentary on the supersport channels. App UBC had the English audio available if you watched the Thai channels via their platform for 2006. I don't trust them to do the same again. but all games will def be on!

You have to pay to get into Fabrique but the coupon is redeemable for a free drink, if there are a few of you then you can put it towards a bottle of whiskey or vodka.... Why would you go to a club and not drink???

Rose cafe gets my vote too! Breakfast is top notch, one large HD TV and a smaller one the other end. You won't be disappointed if you go there.

Checked schedules but can't find anything. Thought the Leeds Vs Spurs match might be on tmrw night.

Sorry Nev and co, worded my post badly. I know that Me Jobacharim (or whatever his name is) owned the player. I just felt that Fergie seemed to bench him a lot in the 2nd season and he wasn't given a fair run. Bringing in Berbatov must have shook Tevez up a bit, judging on Berbatov's form (maybe carrying an injury) he looks no better than Tevez. 140k a week is a lot, although if United wanted to they could have paid it. Isn't Rooney about to get 120k a week?

Should be a belter tonight! Enjoy

As a United fan surely you must regret selling him? Never got a fair run in the side at Manyoo... Now he's showing what he really is capable at when a manager gives him regular first team footy. (I'm not a Man City fan btw) But it truly is set up for a fascinating 2nd leg!

Yep Liverpool Vs Wolves on Channel 7, hope Neville plays so Tevez can put the little mole face in his place once and for all!

Is the 2nd leg being shown on Thai TV tmrw night?

So am I right in saying it's against the law to possess Viagra without a prescription???

ESPN cannot show the FA Cup here as TRUE have the rights for the next two seasons.

Never heard anything so ridiculous in all my life! After the Canadian tourist who got a shoeing from a tuk tuk driver over 50bht and now this load of hogwash, I will not be setting foot in Phuket anytime in the near future!

The question does have to be asked as to how the young Kiwi caught the attention of the old bill in order for them to find the Valium in his possession?

Thai TV did show the semis last season, shared coverage with TRUE, so maybe.

Fear not, my source at the Nation got back to me today to inform me that TRUE have signed a new 3 year deal but have just not made an official announcement yet.

The new deal will last from next season 2010-2011 through til 2012-2013. Happy days!

You're getting download speeds at 1162kps??? Yet your package is 3MB??? Sounds like TRUE have made a mess of your download connection. I had the same problem, was getting 12MB when I only subscribed to 8MB. Internet kept becoming slow and dropping out all the time. Tech guys came out the next day and corrected it saying that the Modem was programmed to take my actual amount. If it's more than it should be it can cause these problems. Give them a call and they'll come down and sort it.

TRUE seem very reliable so far, stream live video / sports 99% of the time with no problem, occasionally goes off for 2mins, maybe they reset the server at their HQ, but it's only once in a blue moon and only for 2mins. I'm usually on line from 4PM til midnight or later and weekends.

download 8.36MB/s, upload at 0.50MB/s rarely falls below 6MB during busy periods and that's very seldom. Only pay 1200bht and that's great value for money IMO and they chuck in free 2MB WiFi so my gf can use her laptop at the same time. Very consistent speed for international sites. Think they are trying to expand in Chiangmai as quickly as possible. I'm on Huay Keaw road and a new port opened up in August with 10 lines available and were snapped up in double quick time. I got the last one!

In the name of god don't go near TOT they went off at work for 2days leaving some people tearing their hair out!

E-mailed my friend at the Nation, she might know something... Quite sure ESPN will snap them up, if available, after losing out on Hong Kong and Singapore!

Thanks, will check it out

interesting... Where where did you read that? Wonder who will snap up the rights? Surely it won't be another farce like last year's FA Cup!?
