The fact that Barca had to show it off in the final of the Ch. League for people to recognize the beauty of their game is in itself a small defeat for the la Liga promoters in that part of the world.Matnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-88236236984580326202009-06-15T18:15:15.881+02:002009-06-15T18:15:15.881+02:00buj lepak lah.

Let's look at this one eg. once barca's match start at 1.45am, while RM's match starts at 2.30am. The producers chose to show RM match live and delay barca's game to 5am.<br /><br />Now where does bujnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-4629317082302860792009-06-14T15:00:20.076+02:002009-06-14T15:00:20.076+02:00Asia is a huge market to tap into.

I think its because of a combination factors.. one is the English domination of most media outlets and hence people mostly hear about and read about the EPL.

Unless you're a hardcore fan, I doubt you'll stay up that late considering a few hours after that you'll have to go to work, as Barca fixture is almost always on Europe Sunday night and we're GMT+7 or 8.<br /><br />Asbujnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-55837042715428759952009-06-14T13:36:14.350+02:002009-06-14T13:36:14.350+02:00p.s. also vietnam has a big barca following..anywa...p.s. also vietnam has a big barca following..anyway, last season barca toured japan, hongkong and was it dubai (one ME country i forgot which)..there was an asian tour scheduled this summer but it was cancelled i heard at pep's request so the players can rest and train well for next season,a very wise move imo. be patient, the asian market is slowly being tapped and anyway madrid has long Xaviniestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885084818446623838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-48605026262985984452009-06-14T13:25:01.387+02:002009-06-14T13:25:01.387+02:00buj, barca is already huge in japan and other asia...buj, barca is already huge in japan and other asian countries are catching up esp since they won the treble (asian fans like winners lol), but youre right in that in malaysia, singapore and thailand epl is still the big thing. btw nike shops all over asia carry barcelona merchandise, limited yes but available still the same (and besides, theres the internet to satisfy all your blaugrana cravings Xaviniestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885084818446623838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-55792091344568353702009-06-14T13:22:24.055+02:002009-06-14T13:22:24.055+02:00I think they're now focusing on the US, buj......I think they're now focusing on the US, buj...fcbeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503273792365519539.post-6463201796307205452009-06-14T13:21:20.208+02:002009-06-14T13:21:20.208+02:00To anybody directly connected with the management ...To anybody directly connected with the management of FCB, I implore you to lay some groundwork to market FCB more over here before RM do it first by marketing their galaticos.

Over here, we have all sort of EPL fans clubs. They sell jerseys, souvenirs etc. all coming from the clubs itself.
