I'd say it's pretty much September - November, do you agree?

Autumn is September 22 to December 21. Astronomically, that is.

The very nature of you continuing to post these lies is that eventually, if you persist for long enough, you will accidentally be proved right. Even a broken clock is right twice a day, and that sums you up entirely. All talk, no substance.

Years? I don't think so! I am happy to stand or fall on this autumn.

Fact? If it is fact why dont Virgin say so? these, so called " coming soon" threads are all speculation, why do we need them? Is it to point score, as in " told you so"? Sorry, i'll just wait till i see it on my EPG, then ill know its FACT!

When do VM ever announce channels? Personally i have Sky too and quite honestly vm subscribers aren't missing much.

And when exactly did VM confirm the launch of the BT Sports channels? Get real, Mad Max, some of us have information that cannot be ignored.

OK, I'll say no more. Let's just wait and see. I am not expecting an apology.

Your choice! However, an apology would be polite if Sky Atlantic appeared this autumn, don't you think? I am assuming you have manners, of course, which I am sure you have in abudance :rolleyes:

Not coming soon - But a friend who works for Liberty & worked out whom I am - If you know me the clues are there. Has told me & said that`s its no secret So post if I wish. The following. That the long term targets are.
1) uniform branding across all companies
2) uniform channels across all companies
3) One box only & Tivo is NOT the model favored.


All is subject to contracts of cause but these are the company aims.
Would look t be in place within the next Five years

The whole point of this thread is to work out what is going on behind the scenes. If you want to deal in facts, look at the Changelog!

I am telling you what I believe is happening, based on media reports and sometimes the information that comes out of this thread. Do you really think that I would be prepared to lay my reputation on the line if I didn't believe what I was posting?

Listen, if you don't believe what I write, that is up to you, and I am not upset if you don't believe me. I stand or fall on my reputation.

If at the end of the year, the Sky channels haven't materialised, then you will be right and I will be wrong. But if all the predictions I make turn out to be true, eventually, you will start to take what I say seriously.

I will come clean now. I am not absolutely sure that ALL the Sky channels will be with us this autumn. However, Sky Atlantic is coming. Even Media Boy believes it now.

The reason I'm not sure about the remainder of the Sky channels is that I think it is possible that VM will decide to save a few pennies by not having them. But it is not Sky trying to withhold them.

When have I said it is not coming? The truth is I don't know. Signs are positive, but I still don't know.


Other people say they have a source; no one expects them to reveal it.

You just tell us it is coming with no justification other than you expect us to believe you. That is why people keep challenging you.
