That might be from last year. Premier Sports had been in prolonged discussions with Virgin but talks broke down. Apparently Premier Sports wanted to be in the XL package whilst Virgin wanted them as a stand alone subscription channel.
The following conversation took place on Facebook 2 days ago between a Virgin customer and Premier Sports.
Virgin customer:-
"Re: Virgin - I "pestered" them, and they said you guys were not willing to be a normal pay channel like most others, but wanted to be included in the XL package. If that's the case, you guys need to start living in the real world and just agree with their terms. You're missing my £10 pm as well as many others by being dicks"
Premier Sports:-
"Happy to be any channel package on Virgin but ask them about the costs to us for providing them with a service."
