BT Went out to spend £2 billionon football but only spent £700 million an stating they want to be number 2 means they know they can't beat Sky so it must be VM customers they are targeting especially when you consider it's VM Cable areas that are getting infinity first.
Also BT stated the remaining £1.3billion will be put into getting content should VM be worried??

VM should be worried. However, I suspect they've seen the statement and are already trying to work out how they can compete.
It may also be why they are throwing a lot of money into installing Wifi points. At least in towns.
VM already have the servers in place for their mobile TV site. I think for a start, they need to make the existing Virgin Media mobile player free for ALL Virgin Media customers.
This would probably be a cheaper way of reaching most of the population than installing new cable.
