You will have to tell Arthur that as he is getting quite upset at times.

MB, I know this may seem silly but can you give us odds based on your own opinion as to when they may launch. Would you say Days, Weeks or even Months?

My own view is - I do not care if BT Sports do not ever comes to Virgin Media.
BT Sports will not let other broadcasters have it.

I care, not because I watch sport (I don't) but because a lot of people do and this is a credibility issue for Virgin Media.
I want VM to be a real competitor to Sky and to be an attractive proposition for future customers. The more subscribers they get, the better service they will be able to provide and hopefully the more technically advanced they will get.

It's going to have to be. Especially as the uptake was nowhere near what they expected.

The day's got to turn to night first (it's only 7.40 pm, after all)!
BT Sport will come sooner or later, I'm positive about that. But I hope the deal is announced soon.
Then we can start moaning about the lack of Sky Atlantic again!
