If they could get away with it, I'm sure that Sky would want this. They could then say that all the games are available in the 'Sky Sports Selection'. Also, anyone not on XL TV wanting BT Sport would have to subscribe to Sky Sports in order to receive it.

Ahh, they talk nonsense, so it probably isn't true.

Are there any technical reason/s why you don't think that VM should follow Sky on this initiative (or is it just personal preference)?
