I don't see it being part of the XL package.

I don't know what VM pay ESPN per customer now but I'd imagine BT would be looking for far more, given what they've just paid for the EPL packages. BT's packages include far more lucrative fixtures than ESPN or Setanta did.

I reckon that the price for BT will be tiered depending on the TV package you have, e.g. £8 if you're on XL, £12 on L and £15 on M+.

That provides an incentive for those who want the sport to keep the higher TV package.
