Didn't Bomber say a deal was already done and starting on August 1st? Didn't we have after the 1st executives from BT and Virgin say there was no deal yet?

But they have a live EPG stream, which they would have to be granted access too by BT, and they have updated the ESPN HD channel number. If they were testing before a deal was done they wouldn't be allowed to test with the BT Sport name, it would have to be under another name, otherwise, if someone spots, as seen here, it could be constituted as false advertising, and screw up any chance of a deal.
Bombers last post apparently said, "if not August 1st, then not long after"
