Stuck in Thailand

I couldn't get into the Arsenal game initially then it come on, have to say it's a great pic and English comms. So far so good and they still have another 3 weeks to fine tune. Zero interest in the game itself though and judging by the empty stadium the locals ain't interested either!

Yes, the Monomax app on the PC I downloaded only shows two and a half games, but thankfully the app on my Samsung tv looks all good. There is actually a live game on at 6.30 tonight Milan vs Arsenal to test things.

I've downloaded the Monomax app onto my PC via Bluestacks. logged in OK but the picture quality and smoothness doesn't appear to be as good as the app on your tv , but it's another option and easier to navigate with a mouse rather than a poxy remote.

The carbonara one is the best one if you have to have one of these. Don't see them everywhere mind.

He is a legend, a myth. He's Bob Smith. I hope he's OK out there.

It's a potential worry with highlights because it may mean that highlights won't be available on the app (or only as per the YT highlights) and not proper extended highlights without knowing the score etc (as True did) why would I want to use their YT channel for highlights when it shows the score and many other channels show highlights of games. I suspect the highlights will only be in Thai also.

Ok so if anyone is interested, as there doesn't seem to be much going on on this thread, I've purchased a one month sub to test, and pleased to report so far so good. Streams well and easy to set up English audio. Options to watch football on the website doesn't show up (but we knew that anyway) but on the app (and probably on mobile too) it is advertising future games. On Wednesday they have Milan vs Arsenal from Singapore at 6.30, so that will be the first time I give a game a try. No clue how it's going to work as far as replays/punditry/highlights are concerned, but the fact that they are now proudly stating that the highlights will be on youtube is a worry.

And yet here you are on a Sunday night. You're a fraud.

Bore off you old fossil, your only 'contribution' is something that has been trotted out thousands of times already. Go and play with your Thai friends lol.

Yes, at best it's risk and 130% more expensive than Monomax/AIS.

Yea yea, change the record fella, all that has been said ten thousand times already, you big bore.

Ok well that's fair enough, so assume because someone like Stan are only an entertainment company they can show on their site. So can Stan lose their rights instantly if someone overseas gets into their site via a VPN to watch the PL?

Made me chuckle reading this. I'm 55 and have been here consistently for 25 years, when I tell people this some can't believe it. To compound that, most of the folk I 'hang out; with are older than me but have been here for less time, which gives me a begrudging type of 'respect' lol. It's a bit mad to think if I'm still here at 70 I'll be telling folk I've been here a 40 stretch. insane really. And broadly agree with your timelines, if I hear someone has been here for 10 years to me they have just got off the plane.

7 nights a week in either Cowboy or Nana. Those guys have made it.

Among all the usual 'advice' take up golf, learn an instrument etc, this is something that I totally agree with, and through my won experience.

Went there fairly recently after many years, the place is dead, many of the same bars are still open but empty, the bar that has the live band is still going and was the only busy spot, go-go bars are a bygone 'thing' now, society has moved on, plus their prices are a complete rip.

No, no, read what I said again, I'm saying that other co's are showing games on their website, i.e Stan, where this crowd won't be. No, you will need an Aus IP to watch through Stan, maybe a good VPN and you will be good to go. but it's a risk. Also I had a look at pricing and it's expensive about Bt700 per month for their most basic package + PL.

I am still highly skeptical about this whole charade. I now see that they are saying they are showing highlights via their youtube channel, wtf?? Whether or not highlights is just on YT or also on their app, who knows, but the highlights will be on YT, which is utterly ridiculous as you can watch highlights from many 'places' on youtube. It also bothers me that you can't watch live games through their website, they say it's because of copyrights, but other streaming corporations that have exclusive PL rights do show via their website, Stan Sports in Aus being one. Watching on the app is tedious using the remote, as opposed to a mouse for example. I also doubt that you will be able to flick through channels to catch up on other game, like you could with True, with this I suspect you will have to come out of one game and go into another. Tedious. I don't doubt all the games will be live and the picture will be FHD, but all the trimmings and convenience that we had with True are NOT going to be there IMO, and I won't just pass that off with a 'hey ho' as it's going to be extremely <deleted> annoying! I fear the worst.

Thanks, I'll let you nick it 🙂

I'll take that as a no.

Erh, not year after year and I won't be here for long, so try again you tragic oddball.

have you ever thought about getting yourself a life pal? genuine question.

Wow, you set of weird, bored oddballs STILL talk about exactly the same things year after year, it never ends. *goes to look for a rope

Give it a rest, change the record, you dreary bore.
