You don't have to be on VIP to get ESPN; it's included free on the XL TV pack.

I would have no problem if it was free in VIP.


TBH, the fact that ESPN was free in XL wasn't a big deal to me ---- it was the outrageous suggestion that XL goes up by £10 purely for sports fans who've had a long enough free ride on a premium sports package as it is.

I'm aware of why ESPN was included in XL. It's the cheek of suggesting that XL prices rise by £10 to subsidise sports fans, who have already done 'very nicely' for the last few years.
