hmm...most likely I will subscribe since I can catch the matches shown 7.30pm or 10pm (Singapore time).
but unfortunately the matches from SF onwards all at 3.30am...so be warned in advance those who wanna subscribe.

i have come to a point where it feels funny without soccer every week, be it watching or playing.

really wanna boycott it, but risk boring myself in a non-BPL month..
many would suggest to watch it at the coffeeshop, but my coffeeshop downstairs doesnt even have a TV, let alone world cup coverage..

Steady lar!

The timing this year is quite ok i feels.

1st match - 7.30pm
2nd match - 10.00pm
3rd match - 2.30am

So can watch at least 2 matched out of 3 on wkdays at least.....but i still may not subscribed...haha

A lot of the group stage matches are quite kok.. but once every 4 yrs, what to do. but its definitely over priced.

Dis morning heard the news some countries are broadcasting FREE.
Japan is less than $10 (not sure SGD or USD).
Hate to think that Fifa consider Singapore as "carrot-head".
But seems like reali no choice for football-lovers...DAMN!!!

i dont know about the idea of tuning to RTM.

i rem the signal was scrambled during the last world cup.
singapore says malaysia scramble it. malaysia says singapore block it.

given the timing, i suppose i only get to watch 1 game per day, which equate to $3 per game, rather than $1 per game.
decision, decision, decision...

Is there no way to attached documents? Got an interesting research paper on World Cup and the economics written by GS... its a pretty good read just not sure can help us to punt from Sing Pools.
