Great idea we should have a forum that just lists facts  That would be entertaining. It's the Internet for god sake, the net is for interaction, wild rumour , lies and unusual nudity and you bucko ain't taking that away from me, no sireee!
Edit: A mod might though

I don't know why you're following this thread if you're just looking for an official announcement. Surely it will be better to follow Virgin Media's official site or press site.

Channels have been known to launch and be available on VM for weeks before they actually get round to announcing them.

Well here we are with no official announcement yet but boy oh boy its been another interesting day with rumours and counter rumours arriving backward's and forward's all morning but in my humble opinion now with the Broadcast website news its just basically what package it will be on or will it be a standalone package and what price it will be.

We will see, some lazy bugger will forget to distribute the new package details round the sales office and the web master will have gone to skeggy for the week.

I am not expecting an announcement about BT SPORT, look at the BT SPORT page on Facebook they are still saying it will not be available on Virgin Media!

That woke me up! so staff get told at 10am, leaked on CF around 11am, hours of debate, official VM press release 6pm, moaning about not getting SA for next few months.
Spotify premium? permanently on XL or just a 3 month offer

There bound to say that they'll want to sign as many up from VM as possible

Actually have to agree on the fact that it is really tiresome reading page after page after page about what everyone on here thinks about what will or won't happen regarding Sky Atlantic and BT Sports. But absolutely no hard facts.
A couple of years ago when HD channels started coming to Virgin the Coming soon thread was really interesting and I had a look nearly every day. Now the thread is really just bla, bla. And before some smart person comes up with the suggestion, I do tend to stay away most of the time.
