Even though I hate football, I always want more choice of channels than not. I hope BT sports appears, but the evidence says the complete opposite.

I'm done on the subject now.

Who wants to talk about whether (when) VM will replace tivo with horizon instead?...;)

I'm hoping they won't!

All I will say is web page mock ups are done all the time by web design teams in every industry (i work in IT, heavily involved in development), to ensure that the CSS is right and doesnt screw the layout...and from time time, these mock ups are unfortunately released erroneously to a live environment.

But it does lead to a shaft of light I suppose. :)

But it wasn't just a mock up or placeholder, it also had a live epg feed. Thats a little different

You misunderstand. The page was obviously not supposed to be released to a environment available to world...it is LIVE is no longer...so it was a mock up, but by mock up I'm not saying it was necessarily someone playing games...obviously a page designer has put it together, perhaps as I said to test stylesheets and layouts...the team wouldnt want to be caught short knocking up the page when given only a few hours notice that BT Sport was ready to go....and that goes for all the content on the page...which will be made up of different content blocks and such like and how they all fit together would have to be tested. Someone could just have innocently picked to the wrong layout/stylesheet combination when effecting a minor update..hence what was seen for a short time earlier.

I'm not saying Im right, just playing devils advocate. :)

Do anyone think BT will do an 'Welcome home to ESPN' for Virgin Media viewers when it relaunches?

BT Sports are rumours as Testing on Virgin Media right now - been testing over an week.

Channel 5 HD deal was signed the day before it was added on it launch day.

My own view is the BT Sports deal being signed is one big lie.

Again i agree with you MB The Legend

They could always spread the cost across all services and customers with the next price increase. Little bit extra on phone call costs, higher rise on broadband cost etc, just to cover it. So they could always hide the extra costs if they wanted to do it that way, which would stop non-sport fans complaining about an increase in price.

I'm on the bus to work den and I'm pacing up and down the aisle nervously. I know whatever happens my heart will take a battering... Truly a roller coaster of emotions on here await...

It doesn't work like that. I think ALL channels show on the EPG its just that they are GREYED out if you are not subscribed to them. Still, to be fair I'm just hoping on 4 additions between now and Saturday:) We shall see very soon.

And you will be welcomed back just as much as those revered members dear chap.:D:handshake

On a serious note,I am truly made up for all of you VM stalwarts on this site,most of you never stopped believing and frankly you got what you deserved,now, if VM get Sky Atlantic I will be back in September (12 month Sky\BT deal expires),the deal breaker for me is you can watch BT Sport\ESPN via multi-room which you can not do on Sky.So to all you "Believers" I salute you.......:clap::clap::clap:

Well, I am pleased for those who wanted it. I wasn't that fussed about it myself, but it is nice to see that Virgin listened to those who sent an email to the CEO office and acted. Think I will go and look for myself to see it is on now.

And is it just the SD version, or HD as well in the XL pack? Depending on how much more HD is, might be worth paying for it.

Thanks. Now Atlantic needs to launch, and then I think this thread will be all but redundant lol.

He is wiping his fevered brow from all that sweating and nervousness from the fear of actually having to think about paying for something :D

Well done Virgin Media, fantastic news! As I said it's a repeat of what happened with ESPN a few years ago. Good things come to those who wait :-)

@SkyHelpTeam Any chance of a deal being done for a discount on BT Sports since Virgin customers get it for free? Sky customers losing out.
And so, it starts again... the other way around..
