iainiain101 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Friday is the start of the Ryder Cup, and I wondered what the viewing options are in Chiang Mai. Firstly what are the home viewing options, internet, satellite, Thai TV? and secondly are any bars / pubs planning on showing it with commentary on? I think the only Premier League game on Sunday is the West Brom / Burnley one but clearly there will be a clash on Saturday. Thanks Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appleman_thai Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 What about CTH? I got rid of True when they lost the rights to Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 What about CTH? I got rid of True when they lost the rights to Premier League. They might have cage fighting or some old boxing matches. CTH is rubbish apart from the EPL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleman_thai Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Actually the only channels I watch on CTH are stadium 6 and sky news. I tried flicking through the channels once but it was incredibly slow so I gave up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTH is terrible for channel hopping for the exact reason you stated, the incredibly slow reaction between pressing the button and the channel changing. I thought it was just mine. If they didn't have EPL they would be ditched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they failed to broadcast any match so far? What's your point? I asked a question. If you answer it, I'll make a point. The point depends on your answer. It's not a trick question.

I asked them but the guy there said he had to wait to hear from Bangkok what he was allowed to show, and that if the Premier League was on that would take precedence. Mind you he did say that being an American he didn't know what the Ryder Cup was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only competed for by two nations, Europe and.............have a guess sports bar owner. Premier league take precedence? I thought they had 14 TV's!!! Ridiculous Oh well The UN Irish Pub is showing everything Ryder Cup related. Thank heaven we have a sports bar in Chiang Mai that actually show and knows about important sporting events (and the food id OK) It may not have swanky furniture, 14 TV's, but at least it shows important SPORTS..........because it's a sports bar and showing major sporting events is a major prerequisite!

BurriAussie Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 The upside of being home this time of the year, the local was heaving with supporters for the Ryder cup and what a first day it was. Come on Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau thai Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Anyone found ANY cover (or scheduled cover) of this great event on CTH/WeTv - even the Golf Channel doesnt show it -yet.? Living in hope for today and tomorrow after yesterday evening's nailbiting finish. And I dont want to sit in the UN pub thanks-once was enough.
