Crikey . . . just found out that Virgin are supplying me BT Sport 1 & 2 & ESPN again all for free to customers with the XL tv package :o :o
Was gonna shift supplier as Virgin had lost ESPN but will have to have a rethink now as i've got that back as well as the BT sport channels :-\ :-\
Just wondering how long it will be before we get charged for it though :'( :'(

I *think* (having read the briefings, but struggled to decode the wankword bingo) that BT have sold a licence for Virgin to broadcast it, and Virgin have included it in their top package.

From what I have read Virgin are the only supplier with Sky Sports and BT Sport in one package price. Good to see that Sky are getting some real competition at last. :y :y :y

Its not competition in my view. I can currently watch MotoGP on the BBC. Once Ive paid my compulsory TV tax ( >:() its free to view.
I also have a basic SKY package which allows me to watch it on Eurosport.
After the end of this season I have the choice of paying even more just to be able to view it,or bin SKY and replace it with BT or Virgin.
Imo,it will seriously damage MotoGP in the U.K. by taking it away from the two current options for viewing it.
Ive been watching since the mid 70,s but unless something changes I wont be watching after this year. :(

In my & swmbo's case Albs it's football . . . & all the sport channels I suppose
our virgin bill is around the £90 a month mark . . phone . .broadband . . XL TV + all sky sports
I love the footer & follow it as much as I can . I would usually watch at least 10 live games a month.
If we were to go to just one premier league game , with travel & a bit of grub & refreshment , it would be at least £100
multiply that by the 10 games = £1000 :o :o :o :o so a no brainer for me . . got a good deal in my book . :y :y
Plus . .now getting BT sport & NSPN games as well :y :y

sorry mate ! Promise I won't talk footer when I see yer next . . I like a bit of bike racing as well though . .. .
used to go years ago a lot of years ago . . . Transatlantic trophy etc, Phil Read, Agostini , Percy Tait , John Williams , Paul Smart . . .
Barry Sheene was a mere slip of a lad then . The name Cal Rayborne of the USA team comes to mind . . .works Harley Davidson team I seem to remember
Long time ago though . . . . :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

Maybe BT think they are onto a winner and will be expecting the FLSS (http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/sheep.gif) (Follow Like Sheep Syndrome) to kick in and switch . Sure as hell wont get my money .
