*Raises Hand*

I have no interest in watching EPL football, but I'm a huge fan of the Bundesliga. I honestly only found out about Virgin losing ESPN yesterday when I went to the site to see what the coverage schedule was looking like. I can't express how angry I am about this, as ESPN is practically the only thing I bother to turn the TV on for with the exception of Test Cricket on Sky Sports. Even if Virgin negotiate a deal to show BT Sport and ESPN free of charge within the XL package, I can't help but wonder if it's going to be a repeat of the F1 channel situation where we are stuck with plain old SD.

Given that I could until now watch ESPN in HD, I am not going to be a happy camper if this is the case.

ESPN doesn't have the Premier League rights anymore. So this would be no adequate substitute for BT Sport. Neither would a few episodes of Mad Men on sky atlantic, or a couple of terrible films on Netflix. Fairly bizarre how so many people seem to think it would be :shrug:

Err this sums it up nicely -

BT sport is just 2 channels that we prob wont get. we lost 4 channels altogether

Not everyone who desires a comprehensive sports package is nuts about the Premiership. I haven't watched a game in about two years due to saturation coverage, and I wouldn't miss it one iota if it disappeared from all sports channels tomorrow. The only part of the BT Sports offering I have any interest in is ESPN, BT can keep their 'BT Sports' channels for all I care.

There was a message on TiVo message section last night saying ESPN no longer on Virgin TV from 01/08/13 and Classic/America were closing down altogether.

Yep. As its hit the crunch we have just seen a load of "my insiders tell me..." And it's absolute guesswork. Pure speculation in the hope they are almost right and they can claim to be an authority in future.

jobbie8 30-07-2013 09:35

Why put a message on TiVo about losing all ESPN channels if the main ESPN channel will remain?

Morning all. I'm up with my pop corn ready and loud drum to bang in anger or excitement. If something is announced today it repeats what happened with ESPN being announced two days before launch.

But will it be in XL? The betting man says no. This place will explode no matter what. Cannot wait!

The messages on classic/america state they are closing down, the main espn channel states it will no longer be part of your package.

"The deal ... is widely being seen as an attempt to both solve the loss of ESPN to BT and to stave off Sky Broadband’s recent offer to effectively pay the cost of a BTSport subscription for 12 months if Virgin Media’s customers adopt one of Sky’s own TV, phone and broadband bundles."

Maybe Sky's tactic has backfired and encouraged BT to do a deal with VM?

Latest Update from virginmedia.com/btsport

https://customer.virginmedia.com/for...art=Tickles_18
Latest News - July 2013
BT Sport will be launching this summer with coverage of Barclays Premier League matches, football from Italy, France and Brazil and Aviva Premiership rugby. Plus, there's also an ESPN branded channel with the latest in US sports and UFC.

You might have also heard that the ESPN channel will be part of the BT Sport package. But how does that affect you as a Virgin Media customer? Well, the transfer won’t be completed until the end of July, so it doesn’t affect you right now. You’ll still get all the ESPN channels you enjoy until the end of July. Game on.

We’re always striving to bring you the best sporting events and competitions from around the world and we’re talking to BT about how we can make the forthcoming BT Sport package available to you. So we’ll keep you up to date as soon as we have any developments. To see how you can catch all the sports action on Virgin Media, click here.
