Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
I note that we still haven't got the BT Showcase channel. Does anyone know what the delay is all about and when we will be able to pick it up on VM?

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
As far as I understand it we get BT freeview on channel 548 for FTA matches, showcase is reserved for freeview

That was my understanding, but it's not broadcasting yet on VM, although it is on Freeview.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
I think it will only broadcast when there is FTA, it's not 24 hours per say AFAIK

Nothing appears to be scheduled yet on the EPG.

No, the EPG will only be updated very near to when the matches are shown. This lack of certainty helps encourage subscriptions to BT Sport.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
548 carried the Man Utd game last week on VM - BT have not yet announced the next 'free' game which will be on 15 or 16 Sept.

To confirm, BT Sport Showcase is not coming to VM. That's why BT Sport Europe is unscrambled on 548 on VM from time to time but only when the FTA matches are on.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Looks as if BT are going to show (as I predicted ) the first pick CL game on BT Sport Europe and second pick on BT Sport 2, so two games in HD for Virgin Media and Sky users
Interestingly the Showcase game is Wednesday again (may be a regular thing) and on both days there is a game on BT Sport Extra 1 meaning BT Sport lite will get at least one game per night.
This what what was quoted on digital spy
Full schedule:
Tuesday September 15: Paris Saint-Germain v Malmo - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 3)
Tuesday September 15: Real Madrid v Shakhtar Donetsk - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 1)
Tuesday September 15: Wolfsburg v CSKA Moscow - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 4)
Tuesday September 15: PSV v Manchester United - 7.30pm (BT Sport 2)
Tuesday September 15: Galatasaray v Atletico Madrid - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 5)
Tuesday September 15: Benfica v Astana - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 6)
Tuesday September 15: Manchester City v Juventus - 7.30pm (BT Sport Europe / BT Sport Ultra HD)
Tuesday September 15: Sevilla v Borussia Monchengladbach - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 2)
Wednesday September 16: Bayer Leverkusen v BATE Borisov - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 5)
Wednesday September 16: Roma v Barcelona - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 1/BT Sport Showcase)
Wednesday September 16: Dinamo Zagreb v Arsenal - 7.30pm (BT Sport Europe)
Wednesday September 16: Olympiakos v Bayern Munich - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 2)
Wednesday September 16: Dynamo Kyiv v Porto - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 4)
Wednesday September 16: Chelsea v Maccabi Tel-Aviv - 7.30pm (BT Sport 2)
Wednesday September 16: Valencia v Zenit - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 3)
Wednesday September 16: Gent v Lyon - 7.30pm (BT Sport Extra 6)

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Good news for those who cannot afford the PPV premium sports channels.
