It is not ch5 kiam siap it is LPPL cuz starf**k has gotten all the rights to telecast so they out of goodwill give a few matches to ch5 to let them telecast lor. Goodwill means muz pay money or not I not so sure Mr. Green

Side issue: You all at home can receive TV2 ? My home I try tuning still cannot get TV2 only can get TV1. Does geographic location matters? Shocked

Hey, thank you so much for the schedule man... really appreciate it. Very Happy

zocoss SG

Yes we all can receive tv1 without any problem. If you want to get tv2, don't bother to turn your tv set if you are fix to the new cable tv point cos you won't get a picture, somehow starhub jam tv2 from their cable point.
But if you live in the older HDB flat, before starhub started to wire up, fix your tv antenna to the old tv point. This way you will be able to get tv2 without problem. But off course if you have 2 tv better lah you don't need to change the point when you wish to watch tv2.

zocoss SG

Hey take that picture off can... It look so scary... Surprised

Gordonator SG

blame starhub. Laughing

zocoss SG

Don't waste your money buying an antenna, chances are it won't be clear unless you live very high up in the sky. Anyway, if your home have the old tv antenna point, just plug it in and tune to Ch 10 and you will get a good clear picture.

As usual, the start and half-time discussion are always in malay but actual match normally by pro commentators in english.

dragg SG

every program must have sponsors.

if they cant find sponsors dont expect them to play it free.

why are we paying tv license for?

dakkon_blackblade SG

Umm... Where did you hear this from? I believe Fifa does not sell telecast rights to only 1 channel per country. Channel 5 can buy from the main broadcaster in Germany, but they don't want to spend money ma. Starhub paid, thus they charge their customer also.

As for Malaysian channel, they knew Starhub is charging and ppl in Singapore can receive RTM. So they asked more money from companies who wants to advertise during matches, thus they can pay for telecast rights and find even through advertisements.
