I think you both may be correct.

I seem to remember a Premplus season ticket cost £80.00 however if you bought the season ticket early you would only pay £50.00. This allowed you to watch all 50 Premplus games. I also seem to remember it being advertised as "£1 per game".

If however you didn't buy the season ticket you could buy individual games at around £7 a go.

Yesterday,I recieved a marketing email from Virgin that was telling me that I am now getting 'more for no more'. So I contacted Virgin to let them know that they forgot to mention the removal of all the 3D content and that I am now getting less.

The email also went on to mention that I am getting 3,500 hours of On Demand content,but they also forgot to mention that they have taken away all the ITV content.

More for no more?

Why do you think it will cost what you have quoted because as of yet there is no proof of that MB.

Just going on info base on What BT reveal today.

I THINK we will need to pay the same as Sky Viewers on this deal.

I remember it was £8 per match at one point.

We paid £8 to watch City away at wigan and we were 2-0 down after 5 minutes and lost 4-0. such a waste.

They used to offer "half" season tickets in December for about £25-30 so we used to get that.

I see BT are to offer their Premier League football channel free to its broadband subscribers.

I would imagine a fairly low take up on VM if those do turn out to be the prices MB, especially with how the voting is going on the 'Will you pay extra' thread.

ESPN is currently only £8 including HD if you don't have XL TV so I would have thought a reasonable price would be around £10 including HD. You also never know if VM may negotiate a cheap deal with BT for those with XL TV considering the fact that we'll be losing ESPN.

Watch this space I guess :shrug:
