I'm fairly confident that most Virgin customers would have preferred Virgin to do a deal for SA and Encore instead of another sports channel!
The problem is Max that Sky have no intention of retailing the carriage of SA to other providers and secondly ITV have signed a exclusive deal with Sky for carriage of ITV Encore thus there is nowt Virgin can do at the moment.
