-Real Lives (And Real Lives HD for Sky Sports Mix HD)
-Sky Sports 5 (And Sky Sports 5 HD for Sky Sports Mix HD)

At time of posting Sky Sports Mix will only launch on Sky.
I'm guessing we're talking satellite and not cable here? Why does Sky have to axe a channel? Surely it can buy an existing/recently defunct SD channel? There are no capacity issues with HD channels.
Getting rid of any Sky-branded channels would just make it appear that Sky was not giving subscribers an additional channel, just a substitute channel. For this reason, the most likely channel on that list is Real Lives.
