So the nations league is on premier sports this week and next?

It is being reported on various sites.

Further technical changes observed may mean that the service is to be restored to Sky customers.

There's a data channel on 11934V with SID 8190 which looks suspiciously similar to the one that was recently deleted.

With CNN HD NOW testing on Virgin Media UK I feel the following channels MAY launch:

*Discovery Turbo +1
*Food Network +1
*Quest Red +1

But I am 90% sure that:

Boomerang SD Channel will be axe for Boomerang HD to launch on Virgin Media UK.

Maybe Boomerang HD will start, given that the streaming service is closing on 30 September?

Maybe it won't as, perhaps, the Boomerang channel is to close completely, given that the website is to close too??

Greyhound racing is now back on Sky Sports Racing red button on a Sky+HD box.

No idea if anything else will be restored or if this service will return to Virgin.

Some odd language codes assigned to the audio on two of them (02,03) - bre & ben.
I had to look both up, ben is Bengali, bre is Breton (Nope, I'd never even heard of that).
Are they really broadcasting in those languages ?
