gennisis Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 A psi guy today said that CTH are finished. Cant say that that surprises me but who will take over the football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Mine's still working, Although the rumour mill has it that True will take it back for next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneyboy Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) BeIn sport have the rights here in Thailand for the next 3 years,if and whoever they choose to use to show the football that remains a secret at present,but True do currently run one BeIn channel on there pay TV service. Others have posted that it might not be an impossibility that BeIn themselves start up a TV system and Internet service but that is a whole different ballgame and remains to be seen.

stoneyboy Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Also there are currently many changes with CTH and GMM with their Pay TV services due to a merger some months back it is as usual a typical mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SantiSuk Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Thailand has a procedure for taking over troubled businesses similar to Administration in the UK and Chapter 11 in the US. Some accounting firm or accounting/law firm combo will probably end up taking over the management to see whether there is anything to be done or how to run it down. Possibly even my ex-firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers! Usually takes a few months just to investigate and meanwhile the business is run on. Should see things thru to the end of the season. The Premier League may however have put some kind of pre-emption clause in the broadcast rights contract. If it is taken back then the house of cards will collapse. Discussions on that would be the first target of any incoming temporary administrative function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alant Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I was under the impression that the Premiership contract was for 3 seasons. That being the case it there not 1 more to go? I signed up to CTH on that basis for 3 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaiMaai Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yes, the bid was for three seasons. This current season is the third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfieconn Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yes, the bid was for three seasons. This current season is the third. I signed for up for their promotion package back in June 2013, pay for 1 year get 2 years's free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Muton Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 The issue seems to be that CTH and PSI are involved in some sort of contractual dispute. PSI are losing a lot of other English language programmes in the next couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTH has been cat shit from the beginning and never let up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your above response actually applies to all Pay TV services,satellite or cable here in Thailand,like many things they are light years behind.

For EPL coverage your better off with I Like HD if you have adequate internet speeds which are relatively low any way. For 450 baht a month I have all the arena channels from CTH and all the BT sport and sky sports channels it's been excellent,as I like cricket and a whole host of other sports.

From what I've seen the cable operators collecting money from customers haven't been passing it on to CTH, and their collections department has only just realised it.

wilai Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Advance Warning! Rumours surfacing that CTH and GMM have 'fallen out'. This might affect this weekend's games if you are watching CTH via Android boxes or GMM (apart from Stadium 6). Astro SS, Sky and BT remain unaffected.

MrMuddle Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Out of the two, I prefer CTH, which probably shows how much I hate Truevisions - the staff at their Phetchabun shop were really unhelpful, and rude to my wife, last time we dealt with them. I really hope they don't get the Premier league again, especially as the mighty Boro look to be heading for the big time next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe from memory MrMuddle has a blue CTH satellite dish and CTH box as I put him on to a shop up here in Phetchabun some 2 years back,so he should be ok.
