Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.
I have now come to the conclusion that the big delays in new channel releases are due to customers always emailing the ceo's office, and 99% of his /her time is completely wasted dealing with what we would basically call junk mail. If you honestly think the ceo reads your mail or even has time to "Get Real" its done by assistants and secretaries, Stop the name dropping of mentioning the ceo thinking you'll get a personal answer with inside information on a rumour cos he's read your letter and you've had a reply from him , IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN.

Do you really think that the would tell you if they were launching a HD channel this week? Forget all the money they pay a PR firm or the fact that they old do a press release no why not just tell it to some random twitter poster.

Seeing the Euro 2012 qualifiers are coming to an end this month, and the various home nations have no control over who broadcasts their away fixtures, I would not be surprised to hear that Premier Sports have landed the following: All England away qualifiers for World Cup 2014 All England away friendlies over the next 24 months All Scotland away qualifiers for World Cup 2014 All Scotland away friendlies over the next 24 months All Wales away qualifiers for World Cup 2014 All Wales away friendlies for the next 24 months All Ireland away qualifiers for World Cup 2014 All Ireland away friendlies for the next 24 months All Northern Ireland qualifiers for World Cup 2014 All Northern Ireland friendlies for the next 24 months It's very similar to the deal Setanta Sports agreed with all the various foreign TV broadcasters about 4 years ago. Seeing it's the same guys behind Premier Sports, this to me seems to be the most likely content deal. Setanta didn't have to spend big money for this previously, they where quick out the blocks and secured the TV rights before SKY, ITV and BBC had even started negotiations. Sure it'll be about 10 months before the first qualifying games, but there will be plenty of friendlies between now and then. I also wouldn't be surprised if Premier Sports have landed the TV rights to broadcast the up coming play-off qualifiers for Euro 2012 between the 8 second place teams in each group. The only other thing I can think of is all is not well between UFC and ESPN UK which might have allowed Premier Sports to secure a deal. Seems there was a desire for the UFC to have a joint UK and Eire deal? http://www.fightofthenight.com/news/...spn-deal-ends/ Remember I don't know any of this for sure however I beleive Premier Sports need to secure a big rights deal before Virgin would even consider talking to them seriously. |

Its ok quoting a Twitter account but if you look the @PremierSportsTV is not a verified account, ok it probably is legit and their tweets genuine, but as Virgin customers lets not get carried away. As much as we all want more content for our cold hard cash, dont forget the route of evil still dictates what content we get *cough* "I only want a dish to eat off!" |
