I said that for sports fans, ie people who want to watch the Premier League, nothing other than BT Sports will suffice. No amount of "entertainment" channels will compensate for the big match starting and not being able to watch it.

I think for non sports fans it is stupid of them to think sky atlantic would be an adequate substitute for BT Sports. clearly they know nothing about what it is like to support a team, and should keep out of it.

You replied to me and said that you would find Sky Atlantic a suitable replacement for ESPN, as you never once watched the channel.

It's the posts saying "If we don't get BT Sports hopefully Virgin will add Sky Atlantic and UK Drama to compensate. That would be fair! I think everybody would be fine with that" etc that are doing my head in. Because anybody who is a football fan or an avid fan of a sport knows that is simply not true. These people cannot be sports fans with that attitude. So they shouldn't be commenting on the BT Sport situation with such stupidity and silly posts.

But my point is: You are admittedly not a sports fan so you don't require a replacement do you, if you never watched the channel. So I don't know why you replied quoting my post.
