So does that mean no Champions League on channel 3 or 7 this coming season?

Just a guess, but if True have been awarded all media rights in Thailand then I would think that excludes channel 3 or 7, unless they purchase it from True.

A note on the UEFA webpage annoucing this info

"UEFA would like to thank the current UEFA Champions League rights holders – Channel 3 and Channel 7 in Thailand, and CTN Cambodia in Cambodia – for their valued contribution to the competition."

Does this imply that they will no longer be showing the matches? And does this contract start this season (2011) or next (2012) ?

News on the 2012 Euro competition coverage. Seems that we will be stuck with That TV coverage again.

UEFA announced today that GMM Grammy, a leading media and entertainment group in Thailand, has been awarded exclusive media rights for UEFA EURO 2012. The deal also includes media rights for the 2011 and 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championships and UEFA Women's EURO 2013.

GMM Grammy will broadcast live all 31 matches from UEFA EURO 2012 on its own satellite channel and leading terrestrial channels in Thailand.

Looking at the press release i think it could be the start of next years competition 12-15 also True have not really marketed it very much if it is starting this season.

But with True who knows,maybe they will soon!
