You could well be right with that assumption Howard.

Re: BT Sports - Will you pay extra for it???

I would not mind paying an extra fiver per month, BUT Sky customers are being charged a tenner.

I honestly cannot see VM putting it in the XL, pack for free. But there again we had ESPN for nothing. My biggest moan is that at the moment BT and Sky are doing BIG adverts for it so where is the brains behind VM, this is the best time to get customers by advertising it on the network, but there again the directors that thick and stupid and still on the golf course to worry about us the customer - and saying, we will put it on the dsay before the season starts and see who gets in.

I think that VM will lose a lot of customers if they dont get BT Sports on the sytem.

At the end of the day it will be US that end up paying for it, so l cannot see why VM just tell us that it will be on the network by a certain date and be done with it.

Re: BT Sports - Will you pay extra for it???

I wouldn't pay that for the channels, you are paying £12.00 per month for three channels.

I have a good feeling that that will reduce as people won't pay that amount of money for what you will be getting.

TBH i dont think it will be reduced. Its the same price as ESPN is now for Sky Sports customers so IMO i think your talking silly.

Nothing official has been stated by VM or BT Sports yet, anything else is just speculation by posters
