Got one edition they confirm very late right? Was it for Euro or WC?

World Cup 2010 was the latest, less than 1 month

In SG standards, 3 months is the norm

Now is the matter of who will take the broadcast. Eleven? SH? ST? Or joint bid? (I excluded Mediacorp because they will only take the compulsory 4 matches as per IMDA rules)

Btw joint bid is supposed to be cheaper, but we are not getting any. If this year's price is lower than 2014, I would be very surprised

hmmm... okok...

As for the joint bid, I doubt they will pass the costs saving to the consumer. Nvm.. if the usual source fails, can still go CC or coffeeshop.

Kopitiams won't be showing if the fees are higher (It would not be like $100 that kind, more like $3888 per TV set that kind of thing for business rates)

CC most likely showing and it's free, lol

I think FIFA has its own feed, more cheaper than hire own commentator
