Re: Football (not Premier League)

That's only if they move too far forward off the line before the kick. Goalkeepers can move as much as they like from side to side - and even slightly forward, so long as at the moment the kick is taken, they have at least part of one foot on, above or behind the line. The full wording was given in...

Re: Football (not Premier League)

Yes, but thats just trying to distract the penalty taker. Once that little charade is finished, the goalie stands still until the penalty is taken. And it's not unusual for kicks to be retaken where the keeper made a save and it's deemed they did move before the actual kick. That's only if they mov...

Re: Kowtha restaurant Tha Yang

If you haven't got navigation, there are signs from the second turnoff on the left after the PTT station just north of Tha Yang. Looks easy to get to from Hua Hin, but perhaps not so easy to get back from. Google maps seems to want to take you on a circuitous route back into Tha Yang and then acros...

Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

I really don't see any valid reason for home visits on a retirement visa. It's very different from a marriage visa where it needs to be seen that you're married and living together. The big difference is that you can work with a marriage visa where you are strictly forbidden to work on a retirement...

Re: Wimbledon 2025

Yes yes it's probably gonna end in tears again...but our Emma Raducanu played two excellent 6-3 6-3 games to set up a 3rd round meeting with World #1 Sabalenka on center court scheduled for 16:50. (About 11pm for you lot over there :D ). Much as I'd like to see a different outcome, I don't hold out...

Actually she's not - Struff vs Alcaraz is. She's not on until Alcaraz's game is over.

Do you know if the 1,500 baht price is just to Bangkok, or does it also apply to trips to Suvarnabhumi airport?

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

That may be the cost in China but I’m certain it will be more expensive elsewhere especially in Europe - this thread isn’t exclusive to Thailand. But even allowing for a not too expensive purchase price, I’m fairly certain that the cost of a fast charge will be at least or more than petrol - a lot ...

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

I realise that fast charging EV’s will be able to slow charge as well, but you’re going to be paying a premium to buy such a car in the first place, so the only benefit will be to use a rapid charger, which will be relatively rare for quite some time as well as relatively expensive, especially in t...

Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

Does the income to the Thai bank acc. have to be min 65k per month in 12 transfers, one each month, or are fewer and larger transfers equalling min 65k per month accepted by Imm when renewing Non-Imm O visas? YNWA According to everything I've ever read, it has to be 12 separate monthly payments, ea...

JAS gets rights to the English Premier League

So, apparently True Visions had lost the rights to cover the EPL and a company called JAS now has the rights. At a board meeting on November 11, 2024, JAS approved the acquisition, securing exclusive broadcasting rights for six seasons, beginning with the 2025-2026 Premier League season. The rights ...
