Perhaps we will now have a new band of insurgents with a No1, ben shermans or their favorite premier league shirt, levis and size 10 doc martins fighting amongst themselves instead of everyone else.

What a great idea,

Maybe we could follow suit and start a british insurgents branch here also as i would love to have free football.

Will of course only work as long as they show CHELSEA as i am sure that if they showed the dross Man u and Arsenal play it may cause even more unrest.

Tuk Tuk
Would probably be a more peaceful world if they showed Man U or Arsenal dross every week as they normally send everyone to sleep that watches them anyway (better than sleeping tablets most of the time).

The idiocy of that man never ceases to amaze me. First he'll have to make sure these TV's are off by midnight, then he'll ban them all together when people start gambling on the games.

Saw Jaime's post last night and the story is plastered all over the front page of the BK Post today.
Good luck to the BKK Post and also their civil action brought by the govt against them re the airport.
I thought Thailand was a democracy? Anyone can reply to that.

It would seem from the Bangkok Post that our illustrious PM says that it was not his idea but came direct from the cable operators, they wanted to do their bit to help.

Ah well it was such a colourfull story as well, of course i knew all along that such an educated man could not come up with this sort of idea, (could he). :idea:
