ha55ha Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Does anyone know a good place to watch the Premier League football around the Nimman/Huey Kaew area that has English commentary? Not having to sit on a wooden stool for the duration of the evening would be a bonus also. I know there's a lot of options on the other side of town but I've never able to find a place close to here.

trainman34014 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Do you have access to WETV? The Vietnamese sport channel shows as many as 5 Premiership games live every weekend with English commentary which you can watch at home. Not sure if your area is set up for cable TV though.

ha55ha Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Yeh I have the Vietnamese channel, which is great But I've got some friends in town and we are wanting to watch the big games on the weekend somewhere close to their hotel (on Nimman) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyecatcher Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Several bars in the enclave behind the bikky bikes opposite Hillside 4, all have tv screens... downsides: yes wooden stools is the norm; sometimes the time difference means you may only see the first half before they have to close (or not at all for evening game) commentary most likely in Thai....dont forget not many farangs drink around there so why have in English but if you have a group of dollys watching a rivetting soap, you have no chance of seeing a game.

ha55ha Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Yeh I realise wooden stools and Thai commentary is the norm, I've tried most of the bars out just to make sure I was just hoping there was some magical place I'd missed! Someone needs to open a Sports Bar down Nimman quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone needs to open a Sports Bar down Nimman quick Well off you go, there is one for sale now in that area and coincidentally as i recall its (was) called 555 sounds like its fate mate, only 120k ish (see thaivisa classified) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ha55ha Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 That bar was terrible unfortunately, not surprised it's for sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
true blue Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 if you go in to the foyer of the furama,they have a large screen showing the footy,bar expensive but very very comfortable arm chairs to sit on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ha55ha Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Thanks True Blue! Funny you said Furama, I used to live there but totally forgot about the Lobby, doh. Big TV, comfy chairs and a decent bar. You can also watch on the rooftop if it's an early game but the screen isn't as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
