1st a big thank you to a guy named Syber and his Chinese/English blog for finding this great VPN service to view Sina TV and other Chinese Block sites. I asked him a few weeks ago to help me find a free proxy or VPN to view Sina TV and he came back with this little gem. :D
1, Download Feiyi VPN (http://www.box.net/shared/mhh5pn8r2o), I put it on box.net. If you prefer download file from official site just click here (http://www.feiyisoft.cn/down/vpn.rar), or go to this Chinese website (http://www.feiyisoft.cn/index.html). It is a freeware.
2, Install and run it.
3, You can see a main window below.

4, Click "Choose share servers" button.
5, It will open another window, click "Find servers" button.

6, If everything is OK you can see some available servers on the window.
7, Pick a Chinese server (must pick "always free"). Do not pick a server which is outside of China. Click "Connection" button, it will automatic connect server for you.

Connection successful
8, If connection successful your system tray will display a small icon, the connection icon will be flashing.

If you go to Start -> Control Panel -> Network Connections on your computer, you will see this icon there. Feiyi VPN setup automatically, if you exit client it also deleted by itself.

Now, you can go to that Chinese site to watch England Premier League. Enjoying!
P.S Most free public VPN servers have limited users and time, if they are full you can not connect to server but you can switch to another one. Most important point: Chinese VPN servers Are Not help you surf internet anonymously, it records and tracks your online behavior, they are only for browse Chinese websites or play online game.

Update: Yifei VPN Trick.
After you click a channel let the video load, let the picture completey appears on the screen, you can disconnect the VPN now. You do not need the VPN now, because Sina Video uses P2P technology to transfer data, it only detects your IP address in the beginning. So, if your local internet speed is faster than the VPN connection you can shut off the VPN connection. But you can not switch channel or refresh current page, if you watch a replay game on this page (http://sports.sina.com.cn/pltv/live/) it only works one time, if you want to watch another game you have to use the VPN server to build a connection again.
This solution just for slow VPN server connections. ;)
