			The thing is though is if they remove it and then sell it as a standalone subscription then there are going to be quite a hole in their XL pack thus they would have to fill that gap with something quite considerable and if they don't then in my opinion they will lose quite a fair amount of customers without BT Sports being there thus my hunch is l think they will do a deal on the cusp of the new football season.

			It's not just the BT Sport they put into the XL pack, it's most of the decent HD variants too :-(, they should be moved to the L pack really. I don't know if this would mean their packages would give more value for money though...

			There are several channels on XL I never watch and never will but it is a good mixture and if it does VM good to have BT Sport included then hopefully the new channel will be included too...
