Hi BomberAF,
You do appear credible, but I'm sure you'll appreciate that there will always be a level of scepticism when apparently itk information is leaked on a public discussion forum. However, what you've said is, in my mind at least, corroborated by the recent announcement of Bt sports on the Virgin website which was subsequently pulled, and the recent story that Virgin and Sky were talking about Atlantic again.
I hope you won't mind me saying that some of your posts are lengthy, and a bit difficult to follow? I'd be grateful if you could clarify the following points so I know I've understood you correctly:
1. You are itk about sports media rights, and you know Bt sports is coming to Virgin on 1St August. (You've been clear about this point).
2. It will be included in xl, but the price of xl might go up to cover it. (I didn't fully understand what you wrote about what customers will have to pay).
3. A deal for Atlantic has also been agreed - do you know this bit, or are you making an educated guess? (Asked on the basis that you're itk about sports rights I'm wondering how you also know about this non sport channel).
Cheers in advance...
