Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
If virgin had sky atlantic..I might consider them as viable...tv content is king
Broadband..not overly concerned (I can survive on any product)...telephone is a joke no matter who offers it
Problem for me..is Virgin are not viable for tv..and they don't seem bothered

On the first point is that SA is highly likely to come sometime in the future and on the third point to think that they are not bothered is simply not the case as the last few weeks have proved.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Nothing at all from Boxnation or Frank Warren today 
Keeping an eye on Twitter, Facebook and boxing forums.
Frank Warren revealed on Thursday that an annoucement would be made on Friday. The Telegraph then reported it had been put back until today.
---------- Post added at 20:58 ---------- Previous post was at 20:54 ----------
Noticed some posts on Twitter about Boxnation and the funding announcement.
Tweet to Boxnation:
"any news on this funding announcement from frank warren?"
Boxnation reply:
"you'd have to ask the guys @frankwarren_tv about that one mate."

I'd be worried about a company that did anything that didn't make commercial sense.

Its designed for people to dip in and out of sport , maybe a user wants to watch the Grand Prix on Sunday combined with a football match , Sky were never going to make it too cheap and risk people cancelling Sky Sports subs.
