The channels are still broadcasting and you can remove the information screen if you press the blue button.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

I think today at last we will have an official confirmation and details of how we can get the BT sports channels and maybe even Sky Atlantic HD and more.

There will be lots to discuss, a good 50 pages at least ;)

Probably just VM's subtle way of indicating that there will be no hat eating on the Cable Forum.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

Because you said that you can't see Atlantic as a replacement and you found it bizarre if you did. Well I wouldn't find it bizarre...

I enjoyed ESPN but have been watching mine and the families viewing habits most of it is on freeview channels, i could justify keeping the xl package if bt sports is in it, if not i,m changing to broadband only, never use the phone and to be honest resent having to pay line rental. With broadband freeview and netflix bill goes down to £31 as opposed to over £60.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

My total number of channels has gone down by 1! Could it be Blighty that's been removed?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

I think it Discovery Living and Travel that close three months ago on April 30th.

ESPN Classic is closing on August 1st but will not be remove by Virgin Media until November 1st.

Thanks MB :)

I said that for sports fans, ie people who want to watch the Premier League, nothing other than BT Sports will suffice. No amount of "entertainment" channels will compensate for the big match starting and not being able to watch it.

I think for non sports fans it is stupid of them to think sky atlantic would be an adequate substitute for BT Sports. clearly they know nothing about what it is like to support a team, and should keep out of it.

You replied to me and said that you would find Sky Atlantic a suitable replacement for ESPN, as you never once watched the channel.

It's the posts saying "If we don't get BT Sports hopefully Virgin will add Sky Atlantic and UK Drama to compensate. That would be fair! I think everybody would be fine with that" etc that are doing my head in. Because anybody who is a football fan or an avid fan of a sport knows that is simply not true. These people cannot be sports fans with that attitude. So they shouldn't be commenting on the BT Sport situation with such stupidity and silly posts.

But my point is: You are admittedly not a sports fan so you don't require a replacement do you, if you never watched the channel. So I don't know why you replied quoting my post.
