The new ESPN channel will continue the same level of great coverage as ESPN America with regards to college football. ESPN within the BT portfolio of channels will be free for all customers who have BT Broadband.
I hope this has helped.

Best Wishes

I guess we'll just wait and see.

Thanks for that I have been on NFLUK but had seen that. All we need now is official confirmation of where SNF and MNF will be shown this year. Channel 4 is likely where SNF will be shown. MNF is still in the air AFAIK.

No wonderBT Sports customers are unhappy with the service, l spoke with VM and apologised for complaining and asked about the BT Sport logo, which is at the bottom right hand corner.They advised me to call BT Sport, which l did.

I was on the phone for 45 minutes and kept getting an answering machine cutting in and cutting off my call.

They knew it was you Arthur.......

[Arthurgray50@blu]

Very funny.

You rang BT for 45 minutes about the DOG?

Jesus wept.

To be fair, a dog at the bottom when you're watching the footie is a pain! I remember Sky doing it for a couple of matches at the start of the season a couple of years ago, it was in the bottom left. They soon changed it back!

I nearly did the same, but couldn't bring myself to go to the dark side! So stayed with VM. Really happy I did

Really glad we got the BT channels, but on a serious note is there a link to a BT site where they are taking feedback over the broadcast and presentation of their new channels?
That dog is going to cause bad ir on my top of the range panny plasma, no other major sports or movie broadcaster has a solid bold dog like that one.
P.s. hadn't read Arthur's post before I wrote this one, I won't be on the phone for 45 mins but it is a serious concern, even ESPN is opaque.

I am delighted and l apologise to VM for all the aggro l gave them - now where is Atlantic - only joking.

Pleased to see you are now happy, Arthur. We did try telling you to be patient!

So what happens in 12 months time when we continue getting HD free and Sky customers have to pay £3 for it?

[Itshim]

Great news! BT Sport is now included in your Virgin TV package – at no extra cost.
That's three new channels of fantastic sport, also in HD... get in!

Has anyone else seen BT's "look how great BT is since 1846" film on BT Sports? Gee whizz.

It is probably only a matter of time before Sky and BT relent and provide HD as standard. I think it is a bit of a cheek to charge extra for HD, personally!

l am not sure they will relent OB because at the moment relations are not that cordial between them.
