And your position that the converse position is not backed up by certainties is as ridiculous this week as it was last week. We have as much certainty as is possible in that Sky are constantly advertising that it is exclusive. We can't be absolutely certain that the Sun isn't a tennis ball can we? We haven't been there and touched it, have we? But we can be as certain as possible that it isn't, so that's the basis that we conduct discussions about it on.

A simple 'In my opinion' or 'Someone told me' or similar would allow readers of your posts to make a judgement about it. Or, if it is a certainty, provide provenance. It's not much to ask, it works beautifully on forums everywhere, even this one in most cases.
What is your problem? If you read my last post, you will see that I said:

As far as Sky Atlantic is concerned, of course there is some uncertainty about this, because we are not privy to these delicate negotiations and we are reliant on what comes out of the media.

Of course Sky Atlantic is exclusive at the moment. Nobody's arguing with you. However, you seem to want to argue for the sake of it.

I get it, we all get it, you don't believe SA is coming. You are entitled to your opinion as am I.

Now stop trolling and post something useful for once.
