I'm down in Bangkok for the next 3 days, lovely place and a wonderful hotel but in terms of World cup viewing i seem to be shit outta luck.

Normally this wluldnt present a problem but does anyone from round these parts know where i can get to watch the games? Especially the England game, which will be at a glorious 5am on Friday morn.

Any Bangkok folk on here??

Sorry, can't help with you that. Thought you were after something else.
 
From the Bangkok sports bar FAQ on the website:

Q. Can I barfine your staff?

A. No, we are not a girlie bar and only employ virgins. Seriously though the policy is no barfines. If you get together with a girl we simply ask that you see her on her own time.

OK, firstly, what is barfining?

Secondly, how do they check that their staff are virgins?!

1 - A bar fine is the rental fee for taking a young lady away during working hours.
2 - All staff have to fill in a questionnaire.
 
@Molbystwin - Get your ass down to the Khao San Road in Bangkok. It's easy to just tuk tuk it over there. There are literally 40-50 places showing all the footy with English commentary. 🙂
 
I can't believe you can't find anywhere to watch it. I was in Kao San Road in '98 and you couldn't not see it. Weird.
On a non footballing matter I highly recommend a drink up in the Sky Bar at the Lebua Hotel. Fucking ace.
 
Thanks for the khao son road tip.... even at that time dya reckon??

The english commentary is a bonus too, i watched the first game in Vietnamese, although i that apparently was better than Phil Neville...

As for barfines ... no comment...

The games will all be on in Patpong area too. There is an English pub at one end over the main road. Sure it'll be on in there. Time diff allowing.
 
Whoever you are...
I like that you started a new account just to answer his question.


Ta! Actually, I've had an account since 2009 when I lived in Asia, but I just pick my moments. All the football stuff seems to be well covered already, so I just popped in to make sure questionnaires and cross-cultural topics see the light of day.
