    Fortunately, Juve vs Chi is Live later in Malaysia, but i doubt I can watch it at 2.30am... :(

    Here in Indonesia, I got new channels on my satelitte pay tv.....Its starting to be really hard following the serie A games. Just two seasons ago I could watch 4 matches a week. Now only one.

    Good thing I have the pay channel at Indovision, channel 1,2,3 are soccer dedicated channels and Serie A is shown on Channel 1 3 times a week.
    While a local TV station shows one other. That makes it 4, and Im happy.

    Fans in Singapore! Hi, my name's Farah and I haven't been here in years but this is an issue I'm very passionate about and I'm looking for as much support as I can get in trying to get Serie A back on our cable TV.

    I've spoken to SCV and the word is "there are no immediate plans" to broadcast Serie A... and I'm like, go to hell! You made me pay more for sports channels because of bloody EPL and now you're cancelling my Serie A??!! But of course, this is just the trained speech from the call centre staff so the point is that we need to get an actual statement from the Management of SCV - if they're cancelling Serie A broadcasts, then they should at least have the basic courtesy to inform us consumers beforehand, right?

    Nevertheless, in spite of the "authoritarian" nature of organisations in Singapore in general, I do believe if enough of us make a hell of a lot of noise - and I'm talking letters to the Straits Times forum, and I'm working on getting some contacts in The New Paper to cover this story as well - then we will be able to get our Serie A coverage... or at least not have to pay more for sports channels and programmes we don't care about (read: 6 live EPL games a week with pre- and post-match analyses... puh-lease. :rolleyes: ).

    So start by bombarding the SCV hotline with calls and screwing them up for depriving us of OUR football!!!!! Keep writing to the Straits Times until they publish our letters!!! We can get Serie A back on our TV - and our strength is in our numbers, and with some pressure, SCV will have to get off their inefficient asses and "negotiate" before the season actually ends!! :(

    I will wait for the next game which is at 911 and see what happens on that day.
    You want the games...you have to do something about it.

    Don't just sit here and wait for others to fight the battle for you.

    :cool:

    Agree Meow! :thumb:

    We can also write to The New Paper and encourage them to cover the story:

    http://newpaper.asiaone.com/

    Click on the link on the left-hand side bar that says "Got a story? Email us".

    Or call them direct at 1800 733 4455.

    We have two weeks until the next round of matches - so the harder we work on this now, the more pressured SCV will be to broadcast our games SOON!! ;)
