Is it possible to watch Premiership in Korea? Is there some clever internet way to do it? |

You are guaranteed to see any match involving Man Utd and Tottenham.
Maybe a few Chelsea, liverpool or Arsenal matches.
Non-glamourous clubs playing each other probably won't get shown. |

On MBC-ESPN, though last season it showed other matches as well.
Star Sports is out of Hong Kong so it shows enough games during the weekend to keep you happy, plus all the FA Cup games.

Note: I get Star Sports on Skylife |

And any Reading game.
Reading anyone...?No,thought not.
For the Spurs Man.U game,don't even expect to be able to watch it in relative peace.They'll spend at least half of the game with the cameras on people watching the game on an outside screen at Dongdaemun.

Man U games-any Man U.game- will usurp Champions League.Why would you want to watch the Champions League quarter final when you can watch Man.U WestHam....
I've gotta try to avoid Korean soccer coverage somehow.I lost StarSports mysteriously last year. |

Not even then. Soul Ki Hyeon, plays for Wolves, yet to see even highlights of a Championship match here. Only time I saw them was a cup tie against the dirty cheating gooners. |

Past tense...Seol Ki Hyeon played with Wolves...he's now with Reading...scored a goal earlier this week in one of their warm-up matches.
However, you're right...no Championship matches last season, other than cup ties... |

Sorry boss, my bad. How do you think he will go in the top flight? Friends back in the old dart who have seen him running around in the C'ship think he is worth it. |

I dunno...he got off to a bright start with Wolves, and then went kinda quiet. To be honest, he's never really impressed me. Seems very 1-dimensional, in that I've only ever seen him make 1 'move'...bring the ball down the left side, beat his defender to the right, head in towards the 18, and let got with a shot. In fact, I think it was during that cup match last year where he did the same thing 3-4 times in the same game.
Like I said, he scored for Reading last week, and I think he took the corner that set up another goal. Would like to see him do well, but only time will tell...At least we'll get to see for ourselves if he's worth it... |

Don't forget, the Star Sports one gets with Skylife is the Southeast Asia feed, meaning it's 100% in English. Star Sports on cable is the Asia feed so it's mostly in Chinese (ugh!). |
