Singapore fans stand up and be counted

BTW, welcome to Milanmania Farah! Hope you'll enjoy your stay...if you are staying that is

Thanks very much, Gabrielle!

And yes, I've suffered the same treatment as you did on the SCV hotline - and the service centre and call centre staff said that they will get "someone from the relevant department" to call me but it's been 4 days and still nothing. I've written to the ST forum but I'm not sure the chances of my letter getting published so if more people write, then ST will realise this is a pressing issue and they will publish at least one of our letters - hence forcing SCV to publicly provide some answers beyond "we are still in the process of negotiation".

So go public with this!! The bigger deal we make of it, the better our chances!! *fingers crossed*

Hope I'm not making too much of a fuss about this *nervous* but this is really so important to me, and I'm sure it's important to many other Singaporean Serie A tifosi as well.

Too much a fuss??Heck no!!!!Serie A is very important to me too.It's been a part of me for more than a decade!Felt soo ****ty that I can't follow the starting match on tv last weekend.Glad to know there are other fans who share the same feeling

the best we can do is to look for local forums which covers Italian league. with that we will have more ppl to so called "petition"

Dare I say it... I'm a Juve fan. But I am hoping that this difficulty can bring Serie A fans in Singapore together for our own common good! We must stand together and get our Serie A coverage back!

I have posted this same message in these forums as well:

Inter:

General football forum, with a section on Italian football:
http://forums.soccerfansnetwork.com/...202#post466202

So if you know any MSN/Yahoo groups or forums or friends/relatives with Serie A fans in Singapore and can help us in this campaign, get the message to them too!

Juventini?!?!?!.....*In the word of Ron Weasley "You're fraternising with the enemy!"

Anyway, we're fighting for the same cause....hmm Farah,you're following a great league but supporting the wrong team hehe..

conspiracy with a juventini is an offence
but for the Serie A fans in Singapore and especially FARAH then I will put that aside.
I hope u will stay here and who knows I can "convert" u to a milanista

There seems to be more Inter Merdas fans in Singapore than juve and milan.
They will be a great help.(for now)

hello nurul long time no see. Getting married?

But of course, this is just the trained speech from the call centre staff so the point is that we need to get answers from the Management of SCV - it's ridiculous that the season's started and "negotiations are still ongoing", as they claim... and in the meantime, while they're slacking in these supposed "negotiations", WE are still paying their salaries blindly!!!

To write to the Straits Times forum, email [email protected] and include your full name as it appears in your IC, your address and a telephone contact number.

To write to The New Paper, visit 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!!

I have written to the New Paper - gotta be careful though, you have only have so many lines in which to say your piece and if you exceed that, the whole text automatically vanishes!!

Over to all other Italian calcio fans.........

And I may be a Juve fan but I support Milan in European competition (after Juve gets knocked out, which is pretty early these days ) ...

I've gotten just one response in that Inter forum thus far... the best responses have actually come from this forum. Even the Juve forums don't seem to have very many vocal Singaporeans.

Yeaa, and their hotline voicemail box is always full.

I've emailed my letter to the ST forum yesterday but I've also faxed them a copy of the same letter this morning - I'm old-fashioned, I suppose, but I swear by hard copies.

So if anyone would like to fax to the ST forum rather than email, the number is 6319 8289.
