When you were editing it (Last edited by muppetman11; Today at 15:38.) why didn't you get it right? :p: You misquoted me! :mad:

Just don't like people who have nothing constructive to say.

I blame the hot weather or football frustration*. I just find it bewildering when my fellow forum friends take a glass half empty approach to good news about new features that are coming soon. Sorry if I upset you. I do worry about y'all ye know!

I'm pretty sure that all the new stuff from BSkyB will come together and a lot sooner than 'when England win at football' which, if the trailers for Mock the Week are anything to go by, is the new time standard for 'when hell freezes over'.

Darn, my glass is half empty and it's my second one. Dare I have another?

*Just now, on the way back from the shop with my cider, reduced price strawberries and 'expiring soon' cream (see what I've done there - I kinda made it on topic!), I saw a young guy with his mates in an old Volvo 340 which he had painted (with brush and house paint by the looks) white with a cross of Saint George over the entire body. S'pose he's got a tattoo of his ex-girlfriend's name too!

Seen advert on Sky Sports News.
"Sky Sports 1 HD
Sky Sports 2 HD
Sky Sports 3 HD
Sky Sports 4 HD
Sky Sports News HD

Only on Sky

*Sky Sports News HD launching soon"

So it looks like we may not see it on cable this month, otherwise it is waste of an advert for Sky.
But then I could be wrong?
Time will tell

It's only Sky Sports 1 + 2 in HD that Virgin and Sky have agreed carriage for, at the moment

No we won't get Sky Sports 3 or 4 HD. We don't know for sure what has been agreed for the Sky Basics though,and Sky Sports News HD could potentially come as part of this.

Correction, I saw the post on ITV1 HD as I was watching the Ghana match. So it's got to be a proper advert too, and not one of those that the broadcaster themselves can place for free.

Typical Sky Tactics hope people leave them with there £3.00 increase on Sky Sports.

They spat their dummy out over the BT thing.
All they care about is the money and not the customers.

Let's hope it backfires on them. Is the £3.00increase just on Sky Sports ? That seems pricey.
