My personnel view is that Sky won't have a problem with BT Vision, as there will be some agreement made.

I think the problem will be with ESPN and VM, ESPN will want EPL more desperately than VM, do to the fact that ESPN have got a settled platform now with football in the UK.

I think the major problem will be with VM, they will not want to pay the price for that one channel. Remember, we have a problem with Atlantic and Sky.

IF, BT Vision do a deal with BOTH ESPN and VM then that would be great, as l have said before BT do not have enough subs to cover the cost of the football.

They have jumped in just like Setanta.
