Jiggo Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Only fair... The showing of live premiership football by bars is for one purpose only, to generate more revenue for the bar, (or retain customers who would go elsewhere), only fair they should pass on some of the profits to the service provider, also only fair to those bars that do pay. What are the subscription charges in Thailand for showing premiership football in bars? Just looked up the price for pubs in the UK, Sky PAYG package starts at £35 (1750THB), if the charges are compatible in Thailand that is under £1.20 (60THB) per night. UK pubs pay 3 grand to show sky per year. A mate of mine has a pub...a manager for Green King, he pays around 1000 per month...well his budget doe's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercman24 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 cant say for sure but it is very expensive, my club in the uk, cancelled its subscription as it was a huge drag on profit margins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swampdonkey Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 As far as I am aware SKY lost the UK EPL contract, and it is now with BT No they did not lost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swampdonkey Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 They have to share the packages. BT is the other big player and are showing more matches every season. If you have BT broadband then BT sport is free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 If you show EPL in a bar (public place) through an IPTV box you will really be in the shit if they catch you. The commercial rates are based on size & how many screens, ! box, 1 screen 40" around 2,800 bht a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are confusing a residential package with a commercial license package. Many bars in Thailand that show premier league do have a CTH subscription. But this is for private use only. The costs for a business package are much higher. In your example for the UK, the sky package for a pub ranges from around 350 to 1000 pounds!!! per month. Just asked my local landlord and he says he pays £1160 per month for Sky Sports and £246 per month for BT Sports. He says the prices are crippling!

Patanawet Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I just read that SKY/BT have agreed the fees for UK live transmission of 5.14 billion (!) pounds for the next 3 years. That's 10 million pounds per game. The BBC to pay 204million for highlights.

PoorSucker Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Suggestions to get EPL from other sources than the owner of the rights removed. Be aware that CTH owns the rights to broadcast EPL in Thailand, they will fine you if you show EPL in your bar whatever the signal comes from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is watching football.Glad to see that at least some people are paying to provide football in pubs bars etc. That should be introduced in Thailand. Then home owners might get cheaper prices.

starcandle Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 CTH have a different charge for commercial premises to home viewing, I'm not 100% sure on the household package ! Somewhere near 450 baht I think, but a Bar package starts at 1500 baht per month for a 28" TV and increases in price the bigger your TV ( yes I'm serious) , the dearest tariff is 3500 baht for a 1.6 meter projector screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I think True were somewhat caught cold by CTH's surprise bid. If I remember, True were paying GBP20 million a year and CTH came in with GBP100 million a year (three year contract). Since the UK rights for the next three-year block have been awarded, I'm guessing CTH may have realised they may not recoup their investment if they don't actually collect the money they're owed. And there's a fair chance that True decide to come in with a competitive bid.Which means you all get left with a useless CTH box. We've had this problem in the sandpit for years, i think we're on our 5th provider since the PL went global. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsailor35 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I would be extremely happy if they stopped playing the soccer in most of the pubs in Thailand (I'd allow a few for those who may suffer from withdrawal symptoms)! You can't not see it...everywhere you turn there seems to be a screen with it on. Now if only they showed Aussie Rules Football in all the pubs...that would be heaven Whats Aussie Rules ? ........surely not another government propaganda thing ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
