Reports coming in that Sky are now contacting customers offering them three months at half price for LFC TV.

Wonder how long it will take for this offer to reach VM. Those who said that they wouldn't pay £7 a month, would you subscribe for £3.50?

No one has claimed that. £6 seems to be the consensus for Premier League clubs which maximises revenue ie the best combination of price per month and number of subscribers. Having said that, two clubs (Chelsea and Man U) is not much to go on!

£7 is a bit pricey for a TV channel whose football team "owners" haven't won anything for 9 years. Manchester City TV would reel in the readies for Virgin Media. Come On Manchester City TV!!! :)

A while back I was told to expect Tru TV onto the platform, sounds like negotiations unexpectedly broke down without agreement. Doesn't look to be much good anyway.

IIRC it did get to the testing stage.
