Which event is that then?

This was what VM have said

We’re giving you more control with Sky Sports red button.

Soon it will be even easier to catch your team on telly, thanks to the Sky Sports red button.

If they’re not showing on the main channel, all you need to do is press the red button on your remote control, and Bob’s your uncle, you can scroll through all the games and select your side. It’ll work for all 2011-2012 Barclays Premier League matches, plus any UEFA Champions League match, ATP tennis, US Open, Heineken Cup and more. Plus, your clever red button unlocks loads of news and stats, too. And an extra bonus, from late spring you can use it to track down smaller sports events, games or highlights, too. Just keep an eye out for the red button appearing on your Sky Sports premium channels. Nice one!

The red button facility will be a nice addition regardless of what content is offered. I've managed to get by as a Telewest / Virgin customer without the facility so far and I'll continue to get by if what we do get is a watered down version.

Whatever we do get, it'll be purely dictated by SKY. We'll get what SKY want us to get. I'm sure Virgin have done what they can to deliver the best service possible.

Get a grip and go to SKY if you can ( as I know that some are unable to get it ). I can live without it and sport has been my younger years due to athletics and other sports?

Just been on the sky sports website the match on the 28th pakistan v west indies is showing on sky sports 2 not on the Red Button.:confused::confused:

Unless you mean just the stats for that match.
