Sharing is caring in Singapore sports

Update, Update...  In the fabulous spirit of brotherly love and good neighbourly relations, Singapore's rival pay-TV operators have agreed to "share" three sports services until 6am on 5 July - five days after its licensing deal ends and ESPN Star Sports shifts over to telco SingTel. 
The arrangement means Wimbledon fans can, after all, continue to watch the finals on StarHub even though, officially, StarHub no longer has rights to all the sports channels it used to have. 

StarHub says the cross-over deal is "a result of a customer-friendly arrangement between SingTel and StarHub". 


Originally, ESPN, Star Sports and Star Crickets were scheduled to go dark on StarHub at 12.01am on 1 July.
