I agree!! This is what people want, especially when money is tight.

Yeah, I often end up watching Soccer Saturday build up rather than the early game.

To me there is no chance of a reduction as more channels have come in and the choice is now whether to pay for XL as it will be without ESPN or not. I do not see why, however desirable it may be for consumers VM should reduce the price. They simply won't do it.

by the way, as sky now have 5.30pm kick-offs. The plan apparently is for Jeff Stelling to present that match after they have finished Soccer Saturday
