Basically, about 99% of posts on here are speculation anyway, so what makes this so different?

But the media don't reveal their sources if the information is given in confidence.

As far as the other matters here are concerned, there was a later piece, I think I read it in the Daily or Sunday Telegraph, which was more positive. It was this article that led to my optimistic posts. The fact that Sky wanted VM to carry Sky Bravo and were even holding up its launch until the negotiations were over I saw as one positive sign.

In fact, it was a whole raft of information that, when put together, appeared to suggest an autumn launch, but with the possibility of drift due to Sky Bravo and Now TV. As I have said before, time will tell if this all comes about.

Based on what evidence, Dave? At least I've quoted media sources, which are a lot more reliable than personal opinions and rumours.

This is just your personal opinion. I respect that, but I am a little surprised that you are quite so adamant, particularly as you have repeatedly said 'but I hope I'm wrong, I really do'.
based on the fact of sky's actions OB sky do nothing cheap just look at the rip off price for sky sports on now tv ect the evidence is for all to see OB and sky have never lowered prices
