Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.

I spoke to someone and they said, there won't be any change as ESPN was offered free of charge. The guy was trying to be smart, but we all know it wasn't free at all in the long run.

Although I hope Virgin have some sort of backup plan if they don't get BT Sport from launch....:erm:, note that I said "hope" and not "sure".

Judgement day is coming and Virgin better be ready for it.:sniper::sniper::walk::walk::omg::omg:

They will not drop the price. The argument will rage on but price dropping is a non-starter.

only confirmation we have is:

1) ESPN SD & HD will be removed as of 1st August 2013

thats its im afraid, no SA, UK Drama, Skysports 3 + 4 HD, BT, ESPN.

I love to be wrong but that is reality at the moment and nothing I seen changes this, it doesnt help when people wildly speculate regarding meetings and convesrations based on hearsay. What one person says to someone doesnt make it fact.

I would love to be wrong

UKTV confirmed Drama as coming to Virgin on their facebook page.
