I'm still pretty sceptical about us getting BT Sports and Atlantic, i'm not so sceptical regarding Atlantic as i am BT Sports, but if it's free i will only believe it when i see it on the EPG.

I am pretty much in the same category. I want to believe the rumours and respect all who post here with their information but after the "ITVgate" I am take a skeptical approach now to "leaks" and "insider" andpretty much a doubting Thomas now until we see concrete evidence and accept these post on face value basis (albeit they did arrive)

From what is in the public domain so far as fact is that both BT and Sky are staging a huge campaign targeting virgin subscribers using the bait that BT is (currently) not available; this is true and does lie well with the post from bomber.

We had confirmation virgin will not reduce XL price; they did say they will "monitor" to ensure good value. It could imply new channels in the near future

We also have confirmation from David @ smallworld that he believes it will be an exclusive like sky Atlantic; I respect David posting as a man who tells it like it is and does not withhold information to his users and as per my previous post confirmed before that sky 1 hd, sky Atlantic and skysports 3&4 hd remain exclusives.

So in conclusion I guess I have to wait till 1st for virgin to play their card ( if intending to play at all)

Love the banter between sky and vm on here,end of the day Thursday could be awesome or disappointing.we have been there before,end of the day whatever happens it is clear that vm are certainly trying and no one can knock them for that and they are trying to get not only the best deal for them(after all its a business) but for there customers personally I would be happy with sky Atlantic and universal hd but anything else is most welcome the bt sports will it or won't it saga may continue but looking at the take up figures from bt themselves and sky they need vm more than vm need bt spoke to a number of people over the last week from vm sky and bt for different reasons and it as come apparent that vm want bt sports in the xl pack but bt don't
