According to several media reports - those not currently subscribed to TNT Sports on VM can get three months for £5pm.

It's only for 3 months and then reverts to the new full £25 price. This is ideal if you are on Flex as you can cancel after 2 months (giving 30 days notice) to avoid paying full price, and then wait for any other future offers.

£25 is the full price on VirginMedia with Ultimate channel - it is £31 on Sky and you have to pay extra to get the Ultimate channel.

la liga brags its the most watched international football league in the UK. I'd love to see the figures for that as you can't watch la liga tv on virgin media. not sure if its on sky.

i would have thought serie A or bundesliga would be more popular in the UK considering they're on more subscribed channels??

The article is incorrect, the offer isn't available on Flex.
When the service was called 'Stream from Virgin Media' there were frequent offers, eg Sky Sports for £18.50pm for 12 months, BT Sport for £10. But that all stopped about a year ago when Flex came in. There are no longer any offer beyond the 10% discount. So Sky Sports HD is just under £35pm and TNT is £22.50.

Over the past week Premier Sports has pick up rights to:

*Eredivisie (Two games per week)
*Argentine Primeria Division
*Campeonato Brasileiro Série A.

All we need now is Premier Sports to move into Virgin Media's Family Package.

Does anyone watch these ?
I have no idea what the 1st and 3rd ones even are, and zero interest in the "Argentine Primeria Division".

I like a way your team work in transfer market.

Pay millions for new players then give them away for nothing when they deal is up.

Similar concept to what VM/Premier Sports offered earlier in the year, when the knockout stages of European Rugby restarted.
