Will La Liga, therefore only be available on a PC / Tablet / Phone? Or are they expecting to be available on Virgin Media channel very soon?

No proof of that.

I believe them

ELEVEN is also in discussions with other major platforms in the UK and Ireland to offer the widest possible access to the world-class action available on the service. This is in line with the ‘platform agnostic’ approach ELEVEN SPORTS employs in all its international markets, making it as easy as possible for fans to stay close to the sport they love.

Correct, and of course there is the possibility of a wholesale deal with VM, as they have done with BT Sport.

But why would you shell out 50 quid now if there is a possibility of getting it on your TV next month under another deal?

Good question

Hopefully there will be some firm news either way before the early bird offer goes at the end of the month

Also possible of course that the app may have more to offer than linear channels

All to be revealed

Sounds awful. Online only. Nah i don't fancy watching Genoa vs Parma sat on my computer or lying on my stomach watching it on my ipad. Nah not overly into paying for that "pleasure".

Put it on BT sport or Sky sports and i'll have it on the background as filler on my TV. Why would i even want the hassle of turning my ps4 on to watch a lousy italian or spanish game? I dont have a smart tv.

Daft this whole enterprise and i really hope they get overly arrogant and do a Setanta sport on us all.

Never watched much of it while it was on Sky Sports and BT Sport , you've got to be a fanatic to have an interest in watching those leagues.

Even at £5.99 I don't see many bothering with its current rights.
