Same there's alot of sport i watch on ITV4, Football, Darts (once a year), BTCC and then any other one off sports they show, so ITV4HD would be a welcomed addition to me.

The campaign is running on all Sky Sports channels and ESPN-owned media, as well as on selected radio stations, digital media and print publications across the UK.

ESPN (UK) and Sky Sports will work together for years, they won't challenge them for games.
