Customer care wouldn't know till the morning briefing 2moro and even then it would be limited detail's and they wouldn't just say talks have broken down its business suicide. customers could leave going to sky over that kind of comment.

As everyone else is thinking your just a sky fan boy

If talks between VM and ESPN have broken down, it means that VM wanted it on the cheap, whereas the broadcastors have agreed terms, and the chances of getting ESPN on VM now are remote.

IS it naturally for you to know nothing? cause you have the best way to always spin things into something it is not to make it better for you. You ever consider being a jourlist for the sun or MP?

So Sky Sports HD is crap then? if you want quality you pay for it, Virgin cannot match that, all they ever do is give customers bollox, is it any wonder they are in debt and are selling there channels to sky!!!!!!. So why is the virgin customer sports fan still waiting for espn then?
