MSingh Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Don't suppose you know about the Brazil game do you? I know it's a 17:00 KO at home so is obviously Midnight here & id be amazed if it isn't on at all.. Just depends on the times of the Play Offs for True but even then i'd be amazed if the Thai's didn't show it, prestige Friendly & it will be in pretty big demand accross Asia i would have thought..

bangkok blue Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 Think it clashes with the Russia playoff. Supersport in S.A aren't showing it.... Fingers crossed Thai Ch3 or 7 come up with the goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 England v Brazil is on Truesport 1 midnight Saturday Rep of Ireland is on Truesport 1 3am Sunday The other qualifiers will be shown on Truesport but as Truevisions doesn't see fit to publish details of most of its sports channels online, you'll either have to try to catch the trailers or wait until the weekend.

bkkjames Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Not directly related to this weekend but I see Lampard has been hurt and could be out for quite some time while training for the 'friendly' against Brazil. Like all the injuries (Gerrard and so on) picked up while on International 'DUTY', hope this one sits well with the FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProfessorFart Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 New Zealand vs Bahrain - TS1 1700 England vs Brazil - TS1 0000 Ireland vs France - TS1 0300 (and I think the guy said free to air Channel 7 but Lady Fart deemed it necessary to yak on the phone all through ther preview) The other Euro Playoffs are scattered among the other TS channels. After that the South American play offs start in the wee small hours so its coffee and football all the way chaps! I'll keep an eye on TS and if I can give any more info I will do. Happy days!

ProfessorFart Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Scrub the entry for 1700. It said 'World Cup Qualifier' so I assumed that it must be NZ vs Bahrain but for some reason they're showing a replay of Russia vs Germany. Apologies.

Sparkles Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Was on ESPN, NZ in the finals. Apologies to any kiwis out there, but think you're gonna be the worst whippin' boys in World Cup history! Well 36,000 people ,a record for a NZ football game, might not share your opinion. Kiwis hava a remarkably proud sporting record for a small country and the fact that they are acually going to the World Cup will fill the coffers and hopefully inspire many young uns to play the game in a country that is rugby crazy. I'm not a Kiwi bult hats off to them for their efforts and bad luck to Bahrain who had to play 20 games to get to this one and NZ only 8, something seems wrong there surely and wil prrobably be corrected in the future.

bangkok blue Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Sparkles, hope they prove me wrong, dare say 36,000 + 36,000 pet sheep would disagree with me, but did you watch the game? N.Z were woeful in front of goal and lack any class whatsoever.... Feel for Bahrain, had some shocking luck in WC playoffs. As you said 20 qualifying games Vs 8 doesn't add up. Also Bahrain had a pre - asia playoff against Saudi Arabia to even get there I think. Think even Honduras will put up a better show then them.

Yes I watched the game and Ryan Nelson is their only experienced class player and he sort of holds them together at the back.The 6ft 5 "goalkeeper looked comfortable and will obviously get plenty of work in SA.The goal they scored was well taken and some games you only need one. NZ may take some heavy defeats but are Honduras and North Korea any better ? I think NZ may well be forced to play in a South East Asian zone,in future play offs and would slot in with Thailand, Singapore , Vietnam etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Mr Sparkles my Old China, North Korea are no Mugs whatsoever & i wouldn't be surprised in them doing another " 66 ", they finished above the Saudi's & Iran in their Group don't forget ... Hondurus however won't pull up any Tree's but will be much more competetive than the Kiwi's, mark my words... They beat Mexico in the Group, smashed Costa Rica 4-0 & beat Chile 2-0 too, albeit in a Friendly, no mugs either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkjames Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I wonder if he has a brochure like Owen? Psssst... want to buy an England captain? John Terry puts the nation's armband on sale EXCLUSIVE By Matt Lawton Last updated at 1:55 AM on 27th November 2009 Eye-eye captain: Many will find John Terry’s bid to make more money greedy and distasteful John Terry has scored a massive PR own goal by attempting to cash in on his status as England captain ahead of the World Cup. Masterminded by a small marketing company in Enfield, Terry has been presented as someone desperate to maximise his earning potential with a series of embarrassing, if mostly correct, boasts. Terry, who already commands a salary in the region of £170,000 a week at Chelsea, could even incur the wrath of FIFA for being associated with the use of their World Cup logo in the email that was circulated yesterday around the sports business community. Leading international brands are normally charged millions by football's world governing body to endorse their products with the FIFA World Cup logo. 'The FIFA 2010 World Cup Finals in South Africa is fast approaching!' says the email circulated by Riviera Entertainment. 'With this in mind Riviera Entertainment is identifying suitable commercial endorsement opportunities for its client John Terry for the period building up to the finals and beyond. 'John Terry is available to create effective brand awareness and endorse products and services globally.' It then reminds potentially interested parties that 'John Terry is: British sporting hero; England's football captain; World Cup 2018 ambassador; Football icon; Dad of the year 2008; Voted as one of the World's most influencial (sic) people.' The incorrect spelling of influential only adds to the embarrassment the email will cause the England captain and question why he apparently feels it necessary to allow others to pursue financial opportunities on his behalf in such a crass manner. Terry is not in breach of any Football Association rules or any terms that might be in his contract at Chelsea. But sources at the FA did wince at the content of the email last night, not least because it simply makes him appear 'greedy'. Terry does deserve enormous credit for the way he has conducted himself since becoming England captain. He has cleaned up his act after a series of high profile misdemeanours in his youth and has even overcome the embarrassment caused more recently by close members of his family. His father, his mother and his mother-in-law have made front page news amid allegations of drug dealing and shop lifting. Sue Terry, 50, and Sue Poole, 54, were arrested and cautioned after being caught with £800 of clothes and groceries from Tesco and Marks & Spencer. Earlier this month, John Terry snr was filmed arranging to pass a class A drug to an undercover reporter. In the eyes of England manager Fabio Capello, Terry is the perfect captain. An inspirational leader, a brilliant central defender and a perfect ambassador for the England team. But since separating from his long-term agent and former Chelsea kit-man Aaron Lincoln in the summer, Terry does seem to have received some highly questionable advice. He was the subject of a messy and protracted transfer bid by Manchester City in the summer, with the big-spending club offering him a staggering £250,000 a week to move to Eastlands. He was believed to be tempted by the move but was ultimately persuaded to stay at Chelsea after a meeting with owner Roman Abramovich. There are reports of an ill-advised column with a major tabloid newspaper and now he has to deal with the humiliation of an email that was met with widespread incredulity in the football world yesterday. Paul Nicholls, the former Sutton and Rushden and Diamionds goalkeeper who is understood to represent Terry, was unavailable for comment last night. Sportsmail did contact Steve Parks from Riviera Entertainment but he said: 'I don't know who you are and because I didn't send you the email I have nothing to say to you.

Jockstar Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 JT is not a real captain in my opinion. Yes he may be passionate about the game and England. But to me. He is not a real captain. Take Beckham, Lineker, Keegan, Shearer or Butcher. All well respected players in their day. JT doesn't even come close. IMHO. Good player , captain material. No!
