Sky must be having to look carefully at its position with all the financial pressures now building up, particularly with sports, and a deal with Virgin Media would make BT appear to be a less attractive option to potential and existing customers.

The one thing I would say Sky has above Virgin Media and BT, is that you can have a dish wherever you are in the country. VM fibre customers are definitely limited to cabled areas.
So thinking way outside of the box, VM may agree not to cable some areas too....not sure if that has been thought of before. All for the sake of agreeing a price on one channel and not securing new customers I think that is too way out of the box for VM to agree lol
