I believe from a posting yesterday that talks broke down, and there would be news today on the VM /ESPN news.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

if they get IPL (cricket) then I can see them needing 2 channels asap. People say US sports don't get in the way but what about time for repeats not everyone has a V+ box or stay up late. ESPN America needed another full-time channel when there's just MLB playoff's, NHL and NCAA Football :(

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

I should have guessed you'd actually believe that.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

That info came from PERCIE123, and it was claimed that the other info came from CS.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

He's said that sort of thing before, and it was incorrect. Meanwhile, the VM twitter guys have continued to say that an announcement will be made soon and that discussions are ongoing.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Spotted this on the VM Support Newsgroup after someone asked for an update on ESPN, which was posted this morning:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

And considering many people here said he is sky fan boy you sitll bleieved it? benmcr said there was no such annocement and cs porblaly lied, as normal you only take the bad side of virign and what allows oyu to spin sometihng what i still have no clue of and why

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Thanks for the info, hopefully there will be news tomorrow.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

From the few posts the guy made Arthur, I think its pretty clear he is a VM hater, therefore take it with a pinch of salt.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Hi Andy, you are always saying this about me, l can assure you that l am NOT a VM or SKY hater, l say what l think, and people don't like it, l pay damn good money for what l want to watch, we the customer take all this crap from VM, and we take it on the chin, if VM were honest with there customers instead of keeping them in the dark, they would be a better company.

August 3rd is transmission day for ESPN, most deals have been an yet with VM is the normal 'silence' Its also like HD channels, where are they, probabely still in 'talks'.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Most deals done? last i checked only sky is confirmed no one else.

You always said oyu had sky so why are oyu worrying?

I agree with you we deserrve better but not at the point i have to pay more on my general subscription yes maybe a serperate one but not on my general one hence why i didnt want sky channels back.

i have nothing agaisnt your opinion arthur i jsut find it quite annoying you only take one side it liek you are lbind to both sides of a rguement only chosing the one that suits you so you can bash virign, where virign deserving bashing i agree with people, but everyoen bashed them sayign they failed there hd pledges milliosn of times they faield once and then they have delivered now.
