Or as I suspect, are you taking a date that's been rumoured to have been launched, then 'epic failing' Virgin based on a date they never themselves said?

So did red button launch?

Re: sky sports red button
The red button problem with VM and the promises they make, and the 'promise' that the red button will be available for the football season is a load of pony.
This is why l stick with Sky, l was seriously considering going fully yo VM for the sports, everything, but they cannot gurrantee the red button for the football, so l will stick with Sky.
I have been with them since analogue days and so far, they have been pretty good, yes l do pay a lot of money for Sky - but they keep there promises.
I have a funny feeling that the RED BUTTON will only be available and selective for the football and not the FOOTBALL TONIGHT item that l like.
