Choices Aplenty For Local Soccer Fans To Catch The World Cup Fever !
















22 May 2010

Just when we all thought that the South Africa 2010 FIFA World Cup would never get to see the light of day here again in Singapore , especially with obstacles after obstacles that we were facing , now , out of the sudden , there seemed to be choices aplenty for those interested to be part of this Mega Soccer Event of The Year come June !

Initially , it all seemed that we were hoping and chasing for a lost cause , and that there would be no light at the end of the tunnel for most soccer fans here , as far as the LIVE World Cup Broadcasting Rights were concerned .... From having to endure for long periods of time for the outcome of the LIVE Broadcasting Rights , which at one stage proved to be just too unbearable for some soccer fans here , to the anger and disappointment over the high subscription prices each household and coffeeshop outlets had to pay to enjoy the LIVE Coverage , it has been one heavy blow after another for most soccer fans here !

After the deal has been struck with FIFA for the World Cup broadcasting rights with just 35 Days to go to the Big Kickoff , it has also opened up numerous alternate choices for soccer fans to be part of this Mega soccer fiesta !

  • Choice 1 : LIVE Screening At Sentosa Siloso Beach

In the first of such Event to be held in Singapore , sixteen LIVE 2010 FIFA World Cup Matches from the Knockout Rounds onwards will be shown LIVE at Sentosa Siloso Beach . In conjunction with the 2010 FIFA World Cup , Sentosa Siloso Beach will play Host to a two weeks Mega Event entitled " Singapore World Cup Festival 2010 from 26 June 2010 To 12 July 2010 , where sixteen Matches from the Knockout stages - Round of 16 onwards to the World Cup Final itself will be screened LIVE on giant screens !

The Knockout Matches will be played at 10pm & 2.30am ( Singapore Time ) and interested soccer fans have to purchase Tickets to be part of this LIVE Screening Fiesta and other interesting Events that are being lined up for you . For more details , you can check out their Official Facebook and Microsite at :

http://www.2010fwc.sg/


  • Choice 2 : LIVE Screening At Resort World Sentosa ( RWS ) !

Now there is one more reason for one to visit Resort World Sentosa this June , besides trying your luck at the gambling table ! Never mind not being able to afford the high subscription prices to catch all 64 Matches LIVE at home , or no coffeeshop near you in the heartlands will be showing the Matches ! For all 64 World Cup Matches will be shown LIVE at Resort World Sentosa Livewire outlet itself !

  • Choice 3 : LIVE Screening At Beerfest Asia 2010

What is watching LIVE soccer without beer ? To be held concidentially during the World Cup period , LIVE 2010 FIFA World Cup Matches will also be shown for at least the five days when this Beerfest Asia Event is being held . This will be the second time that this prestigious beer Event will be held in Singapore . It will run from 16 June 2010 to 20 June 2010 at Marina Promenade .

http://www.beerfestasia.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=17&Itemid=26


  • Choice 4 : McDonalds & S - 11 Outlets

If the previous two Mega Soccer Tournaments were anything to go by , then there should be quite a high possibility of McDonalds showing the upcoming World Cup at some of their outlets again this year ! But whether the high subscription prices will put them off is another matter altogether . Soccer fans will just have to keep their fingers crossed and hope for the best .

Watch this space .


  • Choice 5 : LIVE Screenings At Community Centres

And the latest is that , local soccer fans will get to watch LIVE World Cup Matches for FREE at 15 of our neighbourhood Community Centres ! This is the closest that local soccer fans will get to enjoy some LIVE World Cup Matches for FREE legally near our home and in our heartlands !

This move was made possible with the People's Association ( PA ) , Singapore Pools as well as two of our local Cable TV Operators Starhub Cable and SingTel miotv , securing a special deal with FIFA to bring the FREE LIVE World Cup Telecast to Community Centres at absolutely no charge !

http://www.starhub.com/corporate/newsroom/2010/05/people_s_associationbrings2010fifaworldcupscreeningstotheheartla.html


  • Choice 6 : 3D Experience In Cinemas !

This may yet be a likely possibility as deals and talks are still being worked out . So , in the meantime though , one can just hope for the best and keep their fingers crossed that some of this year's World Cup Matches may come to the big screens near you !


With so many choices on offer now , there is simply no reason at all for one to miss out or to be felt being left out of all the action and excitement in the Biggest soccer Event of The Year next month !

No LIVE Telecast For Crucial Italian Serie A Title Race Season Finale Matches ?

16 May 2010

In an hour's Time , the last and final round of Italian Serie A Matches will be played , officially bringing an end to a long nine months of exciting and dramatic Italian League Season , where both Inter Milan and Roma are still locked in a two horse battle for top spot going into Tonight's Season Finale ! Both Inter Milan and Roma will be playing away going into Tonight's final round of Matches . Inter will travel to Siena , while Roma plays Chievo away .

But soccer fans here will be left out of all the last day Title Race Action as SingTel miotv , the Pay TV Cable Station which broadcasts LIVE Italian Serie A Matches here WILL NOT be showing either or both of the Matches LIVE ! Instead , local Italian League fans here are left with a LIVE Match that is totally inconsequential to the Italian Serie A Title Race - Catania vs Genoa .

A check on SingTel miotv TV Guide for Tonight revealed that only it's Football Frenzy Channel 61 will be showing Italian Serie A Catania vs Genoa Match LIVE , while there are no indications whatsoever on the TV Schedules of it's two other Channels miotv Channel 62 & 63 ! Thus , in other words , all these meant that the two Matches that are of real high importance - Siena vs Inter and Chievo vs Roma are very unlikely or will not be shown LIVE at all !

Understandably , this shocking news did not go down well with regular and frequent Italian League soccer fans here at all ! They felt that having followed the League for such a long period of time , the least is a LIVE Match involving the Title Race and not one that does not have any consequence to it at all ! Soccer fans here are understand to be fuming mad and utterly disappointed with the Pay TV Operator for failing to secure either or both of the Matches LIVE !

Some even drew a comparison to it's rival's LIVE Coverage of the Spanish League where it's League Season will also end Tonight . The main difference , they had pointed out is that Starhub Cable TV will be showing both Barcelona and Real Madrid Matches LIVE . The two teams are currently being separated by a single point , with both needing to win their respective Matches to be sure of winning the Title ! Barcelona Hosts Valladolid , while Real Madrid travels away to Malaga .

With the LIVE Telecast , it ensured the Spanish League fans will be able to get into all the last day Drama and excitement and witnessing either Barcelona or Real Madrid being crowned Champions and lifting the throphy LIVE on TV !

Got World Cup = No World Cup ?

11 May 2010

First , soccer fans snubbed both Starhub Cable and SingTel miotv World Cup Package , now even coffeeshop owners are crying foul over the high subscription prices that they had to pay to screen this year's Tournament in South Africa . It seems that both the telecos may be fighting a lost cause ahead of this year's World Cup , with just exactly a month to the Big Kickoff !

Many soccer fans had clearly made their feelings known on Facebook and other various Internet Forums that they would rather look for alternative means elsewhere , such as watching the Matches LIVE outdoors in nearby coffeshops than willing to fork out seven times the amount they had paid to sign up four years ago . Now these fans were dealt a further blow with news that quite a large number of coffeshop owners do not intend to subscribe to screen the World Cup Matches LIVE , as they also could not afford the high prices !

As doing so would mean that the coffeeshop owners would have a big hole burnt in their wallets and pockets with the subscription prices ranging from $1888 to $4888 , depending on the sizes of their TV Sets and how many of those TV Sets are wired up to show the World Cup Matches LIVE .

It's seems that both telecos are now fighting a lost cause , while at the other end , it's all doom and gloom for local soccer fans too . Is it really dead end or is there still light at the end of the tunnel for soccer fans here ?

It could be more of a case of the telecos fighting a tough battle than the fans finding all these shocks too much to accept . One main reason is that , way before this deal was struck , there had been numerous reports in various local Newspapers as well as soccer fans themselves already making up their minds to enjoy next Month's Tournament by other alternative means . With each passing day that the deal had not been finalised and with the clock fast ticking down to the Big Kickoff , fans got very desperate that they would never get to enjoy the World Cup on TV , so the fans having done their own ' homework ' and ' research ' long ago while waiting for this ' official announcement ' from the teleos , have already settled for what they feel is the much better option .

After all , they still get to enjoy the World Cup and the best thing of all , to them at least , they don't have to pay a single cent for it ! It's FREE !

Never mind that one may not get to watch the World Cup Matches in coffeeshops , for those who still wish to catch the LIVE Matches outdoors , there may still be a glimmer of hope , though no promises yet . McDonalds and S - 11 outlets are just some of the places in the heartlands that may be showing LIVE World Cup Matches when the Tournament officially Kick Off next month .

Unless the two telecos decide to change their tactics and make slight adjustments to their subscription prices , more fans are likely to give them a miss and look elsewhere where pastures are greener in the world outside . Very much the same reasons as to why a player would want out of a particular football club to seek for greener pastures , and the terms and conditions he would look for when signing for a new football club . Isn't it ?

' Thanks ... But NO Thanks . Starhub & SingTel ' ! ... Says Most Singapore Soccer Fans

9 May 2010

Singapore soccer fans are not exactly very happy and celebrating after news of Starhub & SingTel having finalised the long running World Cup Broadcast deal with FIFA , all because of the high price that they had to pay . Local soccer fans were quick to make their feelings known about the high price being charged to enjoy all 64 World Cup Matches LIVE via our two Pay TV platforms - Starhub TV and SingTel miotv . Most soccer fans were put off by the high subscription price that some had already considered turning to other alternatives such as watching the LIVE Matches from neighbouring Free To Air TV Channels such as Malaysia RTM 1 & RTM 2 and Indonesia RCTI Channel , or even to catch it Online via Free Live Streaming sites .

Many had expressed their unhappiness online via Facebook and on various Internet Forums . Some had even gone to the extent of setting up a Facebook Group - ' I Will Not Subscribe To SingTel and Starhub FIFA World Cup Coverage ' to voice their unhappiness . On the day that the news broke out that the two telecos had clinched the deal , along with their pricing plans , this Facebook Site had already attracted 91 Fans . Today , this number has already grown to a whopping 920 people , while others simply went to Starhub Official Facebook Page and made their voices heard on how they really feel about the World Cup Package .

Some of the comments made by local soccer fans on Facebook :

" even though they calculated that it's only 1 dollar a match but who the hell watch all the matches ? I have given up on BPL . Giving up the WC is alright too . Can always watch it on the internet . "

" Not worth . We are only interested in watching the big teams plays . No one will be watching all the 64 matches . Don't be a fool . We are not paying $1 per match . You should introduce a pay per view option and charge us $1 per match . "

" Hands up on who wants to watch Algeria vs Slovenia , Paraguay vs Slovakia , New Zealand vs Slovakia , Paraguay vs New Zealand , Honduras vs Chile , Switzerland vs Honduras and Chile vs Switzerland ? I wonder if South Korea vs Greece would have people rushing to the coffeeshops to catch those matches ? "

" Watch 1 match = $1 = cheaper than 1 cuppa coffee = Singaporeans biggest losers . Other countries are watching it for FREE !!! "

" this is not about money and affordability . Both the telco company has make Singapore a laughing joke . They have now showed the world that when Singapore need to buy anything/services , anyone can just simply jackup the price and hold us to ransom . Because they know we will give in and simply pay up. Singapore has show the world we are a joke . Give the mouse a cookie, and it'll ask for a glass of milk . This will keep coming and coming as both stupid teleco has kick start it ! "

" In HK , pay tv , world cup HD is S$50 and that includes their sports package too . Not simply world cup only . "

" Some countries get free coverage from their national TVs . That doesn't mean that us whom are world class country have to pay a "world class" price over the others . Because some other world class countries pay lesser than us . Competition is meant to create a lower cost but exclusivity would lead to a higher cost . I will not sign up . Period ! "

" we can catch it on RTM 1 , but the concern is the quality of the signal . "

" i will definitely not subscribe ! From $15 to $66? "

" sorry too expensive , will not sign up . "

" I would rather also watch via RCTI or RTM 1 & RTM 2 .. Don't be surprised if signals are mysteriously "disrupted" during WC period "

" with my monthly subscription I will end up paying over $150 dollars just to watch world cup ... OMG ! I will not even consider this .. I rather boycott this world cup match , the price tag is completely un-reasonable . I would rather watch via RCTI or RTM 1 & RTM 2 .. "

" I would probably be able to catch the tournament on RCTI Indonesia without even having to fork a single cent for it . "

" stop making us pay so much to watch and enjoy this beautiful game . The pricing offer is too much for the masses . Besides even existing sport group customers pay the same amount . Alternative method to catch the live games on TV is through RTM Malaysia or RCTI Indonesia ... "

" Malaysia's channel tv1 n tv2 shows free live matches .. furthermore , not all matches we Singaporeans watch . It'll be a waste of $ to just watch 1 match . "

" Get a cheap antenna and watch for free . "

Good that SG has telecast rights to World Cup 2010 . But , I won't be one of the subscribers or a carrothead . "

" others so called 3rd world country is showing it to their population for FREE . We , the so called 1st world country can't even do the same ? Shame .. Shame .. Shame ... "

" is too expensive to watch world cup nowadays I will not subscribe !!!! "

" Offer pay per view ... I will pay $10 to watch Brazil vs Spain ..... I wouldn't pay 50 cents to watch New Zealand play Slovakia . $1 a game ? Ha ha ha . "

" While I understand the reason behind the package , I think it is time for the consumers to exercise their rights . For whatever reason , sorry guys I won't be taking up your package . As a die hard soccer fan , I think missing the World Cup is not the end of world ... "

" Don't plead to us . We wanna know answers . Why then can our neighbouring countries offer the WC on their free-to-air channels then ? Isn't the emergence of competition of 2 telcos supposed to bring down prices ? What happened to all the advertising dollars that I'm sure companies have put in prior to this WC announcement ? Singaporeans are no longer stupid . We refuse to be hoodwinked !! "

" Heard that Hong Kong's pay tv is charging S$50 for the World Cup 64 matches too . but their S$50 includes the normal sports packages too . Are we paying too much than HK ?

Starhub Cable TV To End EPL LIVE Coverage On a Real High !

6 May 2010

Starhub Cable TV will end their long running EPL Coverage on it's platform on a real high with nine LIVE Matches and one as Delayed Telecast in this Sunday highly anticipated Season Finale ! And out of the nine LIVE Matches , two will be made available for FREE to all Starhub TV Subscribers !

Burnley vs Tottenham & Hull City vs Liverpool Match will be made available LIVE for FREE this Sunday on two of Starhub Free Channels - Starhub Preview Channel ( Channel 101 ) & SuperSports Arena ( Channel 201 ) respectively , with the rest of the six Matches on their usual Channels - five on their Football Channel and two on their SuperSports Channels ( not including the Hull City vs Liverpool Match on SuperSports Arena Channel ) . All Matches will kick off at 11pm - Singapore Time .

The only Match to be shown as Delayed Telecast on that night will be Everton vs Portsmouth , which Football Channel 222 will carry the match at 1.30am . Following the current Season coming to a close after this Sunday final round of Matches , Starhub Cable TV will also end it's long running LIVE Coverage of Europe most popular League on it's platform !


http://www.starhub.com/corporate/newsroom/2010/05/starhub_caps_finaleofbarclayspremierleagueseasonwithlivescreenin.html


From next Season onwards till Year 2013 , EPL LIVE Coverage will be on a new Pay TV Cable platform - SingTel miotv ! That is , from the upcoming new 2010 / 2011 EPL Season which kicks off this August till Year 2013 - that is how long SingTel miotv has secured the LIVE Broadcast Rights for the most popular European League ! Starhub Cable TV Subscribers meanwhile will just have to make do with LIVE Action from the Spanish La Liga , Cola Cola Championship , German League , French League , and on top of that - Asia's regional Leagues : J- League & S.League as well as the Brazilian League in their lineup of LIVE soccer broadcasts , with occasional International LIVE Matches from the Euro 2012 Qualifiers and the 2014 World Cup Qualifiers and International Friendly Matches , during the period of three years without EPL LIVE Coverage on it's platform .


So , one can't help but really feel that , perhaps this Sunday's nine simulanteous LIVE Coverage on nine different Channels , with two LIVE Matches being made available for FREE is indeed a really very fitting way to reward all Starhub TV Subscribers for their long continuous and unwavering support all these years towards the Cable TV Station EPL Coverage as Starhub TV end their long running EPL LIVE Coverage from next Season onwards !

So it will be Goodbye Starhub and Hello SingTel miotv as the new 2010 / 2011 EPL Season kicks off this August !


EPL Season Finale - Two FREE LIVE Matches Awaits Soccer Fans This Sunday !

6 May 2010

We broke this News EXCLUSIVELY to you in our previous Blog Post here on Monday ahead of any local print Media , of a likely possibility that local soccer fans might get the chance to enjoy at least two EPL LIVE Matches for FREE this Sunday when the current Season draws to a close with all ten matches being played at the same time on the same night itself ! Now the Good News is that , EPL soccer fans WILL indeed be able to watch two EPL LIVE Games for FREE this Sunday on Starhub Preview Channel ( Channel 101 ) and SuperSports Arena ( Channel 201 ) as reported by us in that same Blog Post !

Now for the not so good News though .... None of those two FREE LIVE Matches have anything to do with the EPL Title Race , the very least is a Burnley vs Tottenham LIVE Match on one of the two Free Channels to see if the North London side , having already guaranteed that fourth place finish in the League Table after this morning's 1- 0 victory over Man City , can go on to climb even higher to third place displacing their rivals Arsenal to ensure direct qualification to next Season's UEFA Champions League ! For that to happen , Spurs must hope that Arsenal lose to Europa League Finalists Fulham , while they themselves must beat Burnley .

Despite all ten last round of Fixtures being played simulanteously this Sunday at 11pm ( Singapore Time ) , not all will be shown LIVE , with one being shown as Delayed Telecast at 1.30am on Football Channel 222 . The one Match that is being ' sacrificed ' is Everton vs Portsmouth Match at Goodison Park . So , a total of nine Matches will be shown LIVE , with all five Football Channels , three SuperSports Channels and Starhub Preview Channel showing the Season Finale round of EPL Matches LIVE !






Chelsea vs Wigan ( Football Channel 222 )


West Ham vs Man City ( Football Channel 223 )

Wolves vs Sunderland ( Football Channel 224 )

Bolton vs Birmingham ( Football Channel 225 )

Aston Villa vs Blackburn ( Football Channel 226 )

Everton vs Portsmouth ( DELAYED at 1.30am on Channel 222 )









Hull City vs Liverpool ( SuperSports Arena Channel 201 )

Man United vs Stoke City ( SuperSports Channel 202 )

Arsenal vs Fulham ( SuperSports Plus Channel 203 )













LIVE On Channel 101


Burnley vs Tottenham ( Preview Channel 101 )



http://www.starhub.com/corporate/newsroom/2010/05/starhub_caps_finaleofbarclayspremierleagueseasonwithlivescreenin.html

* All Matches Kick Off at 11pm ( Singapore Time ) . *



HAPPY Watching & Enjoy The Series of LIVE Matches on offer this Sunday !

FIRST & EXCLUSIVE ! Soccer Fans May Get To Watch Two Season Finale EPL LIVE Matches For FREE !

3 May 2010

Enjoyed watching the two FREE LIVE EPL BIG Matches on Starhub Football Channel last night ? More FREE LIVE EPL Matches may be coming your way this Sunday as the current EPL 2009 / 2010 League Season draws to a close !

This Sunday will be the Season Finale to what has been a really happening , exciting and dramatic 2009 / 2010 EPL Season . As this will be the last round of matches for this current Season , all ten matches will be played on that same night , and will kick off stimulanteously at the same time ( 11pm - Singapore Time ) . With the curtains set to come down for the current EPL Season , this Sunday will also signal the end of Starhub Cable TV long running LIVE Coverage of the most popular European League ! For the New 2010 / 2011 Season which kicks off this August , till Year 2013 - for a duration of three years , EPL , as well as the English FA Cup LIVE Coverage will no longer be on Starhub Cable TV platforms but will be on SingTel miotv instead !

As all ten matches will be played on the same night and at the same time , it is expected that at least two of the total ten Matches for the night may be shown on Starhub Preview Channel ( Channel 101 ) and SuperSports Arena ( Channel 201 ) respectively . Thus , there is a possibility that soccer fans may get to watch two LIVE EPL Matches for FREE this Sunday . A check on Starhub Cable TV Schedule for this Sunday shows that all five Football Channel ( Channel 222 To Channel 226 ) , SuperSports Plus and SuperSports Channel will be showing LIVE EPL Matches as usual .

Further checks on Starhub TV other Sports Channels TV Schedules for that day revealed that there is a likely possibility that SuperSports Arena ( Channel 201 ) may also be showing one of the EPL Matches LIVE too on this Sunday as it is indicated as " Football Special 2010 " and the Timing of this TV Programme coincide with the EPL Kick Off Timing of 2300 Hours .

Also , if previous Season's EPL Final Day is anything to go by , then one EPL LIVE Match may also be shown on Starhub Preview Channel too this year , making it a possibility of two FREE EPL LIVE Matches on this Sunday for local EPL soccer fans here ! However , unlike previous year's EPL Season Finale , ESPN & Star Sports Channel will NOT be showing any LIVE EPL Match this year .

* At the time of publishing , six of the total ten Matches have been confirmed to be shown LIVE this Sunday on the following Channels :
