I think BT Sport 3 will come if they continue to get sports rights the way they are atm.
They're going for Brazlian football now apparantly.

I would tend to go with what the owner releases rather than somebody in CS says - who also is not too good at spelling. I would have through that Sky pulling out of the channel would be knowledge to staff by now.

How often do CS staff give the wrong info?

Perhaps the staff will not be told until 16th Jan - we know that sort of thing happens.
This is what i was thinking tbh especially with them saying they're looking into a streaming service too. We'll find out for sure on 16th i take emails from cs of companies with a pinch of salt these days lol.

I think VM shot themselves in the foot by selling Living etc, but then again i believe this got us the SkyOD services too as part of the deal?
I'm not going to discuss Sky anymore as this is a Virgin media thread and we'll end up of topic lol. The best thing to say is only time will tell what comes to VM and what doesn't.
This year i think from the info i have we'll see.
History HD
Nat Geo wildHD
DisneyHD
Now tv app to appear on tivo(take this with a pinch of salt)
Disney XDHD
SkynewsHD
SkysportsnewsHD
CIHD
