I can only hope that there is a charged add on package.

Indeed any existing sports channel that incurs additional charges shouldn't be given away for free as one way or another we the customer are paying. If it wasn't for the BT sports, how much cheaper would BT's broadband and or phone line rental be, and in turn that lower price would influence competition with the other providers including Virgin Media. Why should those who don't want these exorbitant sports have to subsidise those that do and thus indirectly contribute to the overpaid inflated football clubs?
