I just hope starhub did not pay a very huge price to win it!!!! Else it will hit the bottomline.. If transfer that to consumers, it may not gain the support from consumers.
StarHub wins exclusive rights to broadcast EPL matches, for the next three seasons, starting from July 2007.
Hope it will propell the price up.....
IT will take sometime to recover... Still long way to go...
still think this stock is underperforming considering its good fundamentals, and also should have another 3cents dividend payout for the next qtr
