Interesting so how many of us will be checking the channel guide throughout Friday? If ESPN is still there but no VM press release do we assume good news is on it's way? At least it points to some kind of resolution, either way, being aimed for this week.

I doubt you'll get anything from your insiders about BT sport MB and it'll only launch randomly and without warning if at all.
I think BT sport is much too big a thing for anyone to leak because of the uproar and controversy surrounding it that no one would risk leaking anything about it. Also i think the only people in the know will be very high up directors who know what is going on with the negotiations.
The higher ups will be happy to tell staff about channel launchs of GINX and +1 channels because if something goes wrong there wont be much uproar. We'll always get leaked this type of information.
But for something so big as BT sport i dont think we'll ever hear anything until it launches. Far too confidential.

I think it safe to say that Channel 4 +1 HD will not be launching after all.
Looking on the Ofcom more I think they are moving from two licences to one licence for that Broadcaster.
I mean that new licence for Channel 4 will be for the following channels:
-Channel 4
-Channel 4 +1
-Channel 4 HD.
