We try to be supportive on this forum Carl, no one persons post/opinion should be more important than another's.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. II.

So has the red button launched then or are we just going to get limited crap all the time? Will we get Match choice of all the premier league matches to choose from?

All views are important, and the more that contribute, the better the forum is.
I appreciate you saying that Hugh.

Actually, the quote I was referring to regarding the current situation regarding VM and Sky Atlantic was said yesterday following the release of the Q1 2011 results. I accept that whilst we had an idea that this was the case, I felt it was important to underline this in reply to an earlier post by stating what the current position is in case people had not spotted the quote. As i said, just trying to be helpful and I'm sorry that he couldn't understand this and that he chose to dismiss my intentions to be helpful with a sarcastic reply.

Apologies for the over-reaction. But, like I said, it's not like it was new news.
