Pay $70.62 for World Cup?

[Alamaking]

I got no complains since I'll be watching it for free , $1 a match is a cheebye reason to tempt people to subscribe. I dare anyone from SingTel and Starhub people to watch all the 64 matches to justify their marketing sales of $1 per match.

FUCK YOU SINGTEL AND STARHUB!!!! :oIo::oIo::oIo:

Sinkie sinkie, complain and complain yet no balls TP confront.

MCS and mda should be broadcasting all matches free in the interests of public service. This is the way to promote the sport in Singapore, especially if you want to be soccer powerhouse.

......

The words 'free' and 'Singapore' are never put in same sentence if it is in the benefit of the citizens.

I be watching the World Cup FOC in 24-hour MacDonalds just across the road as a group rather than all by myself at home.

BTW, my cup of coffee is either 50$ for small cup or 80cents for a glass. Why SingTel is more than a $1 ? Haaaaa, theirs is either Starbucks or Coffee Beans. This just showed how out of touch this telcos are. You want your 3 meals in coffeeshops, food courts or resturants ? It is obvious where these SingTel guys have their meals.

This just showed how out of touch this telcos are.

Not so, they claim they do 'market research' to arrive at cost of package.
I suspect they simply based on one asshole who was interviewed in the Straits Times as saying he won't pay 'more than $100' to watch World Cup.

Bingo! after GST $90+ below $100 - not coincidental ? similancheow 'market research' - paying $ to name Marina Bay Marine Nabei ?

 

[scoobyhoo]

why broadcast world cup matches to encourage gambling?:oIo:

 

[Brightkid]

From today's highly accurate, trustworthy, timely and credible State's Times report of 'World Cup TV deal is on', anyone noticed those that were interviewed and their response ?

If not, I categorize some of them herein :

Against paying so muchie:
- Goh Tat Chuan - fromer natoinal footballer
- Mohammad Farhan Abdul - student
- Calvin Teng - Admin Asst
- Mohamed Rasuul - event manager


No problem paying more:
- Purushthaman - Auditor
- Wesley Susanto - Service Manager
- Nitin Nambiar - student


What can we deduce from this interviewees of ability to pay ?

Comments /views?

How much did SH & ST pay for WC rights?
last time, SH pay USD 15M? and we pay $10 and $30 to watch for sports and non sports group subscribers.

This time it's a joint bid, broadcast rights costs are shared, why the sharp increase in price?

 

[wrcboi]

just as expected...sporns will be taxed till their death bed....tooo bad...approved by 66.66% want to watch then pay...theres no free matches or meals...

$70 is inclusive of GST, which of course is meant to benefit the poor, for those of us who have forgotten.

Sinkies are suckers. Different word spelling but same starting letter. Who the hell would pay foe world cup when it can be free.

Only suckers pay for it, specifically sinkie suckers.

Who the hell would pay foe world cup when it can be free.

Exactly. Thailand TV3 and TV7 no horse run. Whole Silom and Lumphini jammed up with protestors still got free World Cup on TV.

 

[Sideswipe]

It's good to see local netizens all refusing to pay for the too expensive world cup package. Hope we don't say one thing and do the complete opposite.

 

[myfoot123]

Most expensive ministers in the world. The verdict:-

- Dr Romanian escaped after killing someone.
- Two resorts are total dissappoinment after opening
- Youth olympic game does not have the buzz
- Homeless and poverty rises
- ERP everywhere
- Singapore in Shanghai Expo a total failure
- Thousand of foreign talents being raided in "hotspot".
- Unlike other countries, Singapore is the first to pay to watch world cup.
- Justic Choo send people to jail for walking leisurely in the street
- Liu Tuck Yew embarassed musesm donors.
- MOE and other civil servants tremble under the feet of their "god"
- More gerrymandering of electorate and NMP opposes NCMP in parliament
- Singapore has not yet became a nation or a country
- Prostitutes aplenty in the Shit Times selling cunts to pappy.
- YPAP behaves like mini-god and goddess
- Unproductivity at all time high.
