Re: Virgin TV (2025)
We received a communication from VM re: Eurosport closing offering us TNT sports for the remainder of our contract (then it would be normal price).

Given VM said they knew we watch Eurosport (true) you’d think they would also know that we haven’t been in contract for quite a long time (and can walk away any time), so the offer is irrelevant and we don’t qualify.

Accept their offer and they might be stupid enough to just switch on free TNT Sports for you 😀

I’ve not got the time to watch much sport these days unfortunately, and they’d probably mess up something and I can’t bothered getting into a situation I’d have to rectify.

So a fair chance that many so-called minority sports will be on the red button which of course cannot be recorded.

WBD have said that some of the sports shown on Eurosport will move to QUEST.

Only MotoGP will be fully covered, the rest will be ad hoc coverage. I suspect that this will ultimately be being done to encourage people to subscribe to TNT Sports.

Well they certainly won't want to discourage people from subscribing

Re: Virgin TV (2025)
MotoGP has been on BTSport/TNT for a number of years.

World Superbike and British Superbike are on Eurosport.
