Arthur, I just can't see how you lay the blame squarely a Virgin Media's door. Virgin have negotiated a fabulous yet expensive wholesale deal with BT to put BT Sports into their premium packages (estimated at £75M per year) for 6 channels (3 x SD & 3 x HD). Premier Sports want an equally expensive wholesale deal but for 1 SD channel and it is them that have turned down a stand alone deal.
What is it you want Virgin to do? Personally, before August the 16th the camels back was under extreme stress. Now thanks to LG there seems to be a much more powerful negotiating team and the future is bright!
