Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

I can answer that question in 2.

I have no complaints about Sky, IF, BT Sports is not on VM i will put BT Sports on the Freesat channel (yes l know l said l would get it on Sky, but paying £12 is cheaper than paying 30 to go to WHL).

In all the time l was with Sky, l complained only TWICE in ten years, l had a dish problem.

With VM l was complaining about loss of picture,sound etc, and poor boxes, and that was within a couple of months.

Sky wins hands down in my opion.

But didn't you go to Sky recently and then cancel and come back to VM, or am I mistaken?

It's not about price, it's about value. About £45 a month will get you a Sky and BT Sport subscription in HD. Great. But the same money buys you a couple of pints in the Bill Nic and a seat behind the goal in the South upper. Cancel your sport subs and go to one game a month with the money you save! Go on, you know it makes sense!

One game? And miss all the other games?

Of course, BBC does do a great highlights show...which was always been my fallback position

If Arthur's concern is that a match ticket is £30 then yes, one game a month. Factor in MOTD and the match every 2 days available free to air as evidenced by Chad's excellent thread, and I reckon he'll be having a much better time, plus he'll be supporting the club he loves. And (whisper it in case Den is listening) the Bill Nicholson pub has nice ladies dancing on the bar too!!!

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

If VM get BT sports it better be at no extra cost if they are adding this into the existing main package. I dont want BT sport and dont need BT sport so why should i have to pay more if they put it in the xl package and up the price. I will move providers if they force this on us and increase the cost.

I am talking about the online app. I don't have a Sky box, so I was only after the online app ATM.

Are we any wiser to whether or not BT Sports will be launching on VM in the next day or two?
