SINGTEL is offering football fans a unique three-platform viewing experience from its line-up of Uefa Champions League, Europa League and Serie A matches next season.

Starting Thursday, fans can register on any one of SingTel's TV, online or mobile platforms, or all three, to catch Europe's top football clubs in action.

Sign-ups range from $15.90 per month for access to all three platforms or $0.54 to get match highlights on your mobile phone.

Non-SingTel subscribers will not be left out.

For $13 a month, football fans - without having to sign up with any of SingTel's TV, internet or mobile plans - can also get in on the action.

Central to the SingTel experience is the launch of Football Frenzy, Singapore's first multimedia football vehicle.

On it, fans can catch all 146 Champions League, 149 Europa League and Serie A matches 'live' or on-demand across the telco's mioTV, online and mobile platforms.

SingTel, which will take over the Singapore rights to the Champions League and Europa League (previously known as the Uefa Cup) from ESPN STAR Sports in the upcoming season, is also set to launch the SingTel Stadium.

Set to feature on a new website - singtelfootballfrenzy.com - fans can watch matches 'live' in a stadium setting.

One can also chat with other fans online and get access to latest news and results. Interactive elements such as booing the referee and starting chants will also be available when the site is fully ready in August.

Read the full report in Thursday's edition of The Straits Times.
