I suppose it's been thrown on the "2012 To-Do List" like a bunch of other stuff. Just a guess, but you know VM...

I'll be totally honest this was my main reason for leaving VM , along with my poor BB speeds due to oversubscribed area.

I think a lot of HD channels will come next year as part of the 80 HD channels target.

It says at the end of the electric magazine " watch this space" so something is happening. Virgin Media usually announce new channels in February , March or April.

It does not make sense :confused:

Have you ever stared at anything long enough? It makes you see things that are not there?

That is what they mean by watch this space (look at it for hours, I saw the second coming)

With no NHL or NBA coverage it's not been worth watching since the MLB finished!

I'm sure college football and Basketball fans would disagree. What about its many magazine type shows.

Sorry, but I will have to disagree, I am an American sports fan and I enjoy most of them, College football is the next best thing to the NFL and there is plenty of good action. College hoops is good and will keep me going for another few weeks until the NBA starts on Christmas day all being well.
The loss of NHL is a massive loss, the NHL have reneged on their promise to give European fans a better tv deal.:( The NHL is now only available here on Premier Sports(Sky Only) which is not even covering HNIC as far as I am aware ,which is an institution in the Ice Hockey world. I also enjoy watching Sportsnation and Around the Horn.
