Woohoo, BT and Virgin Media have just announced a deal. BT Sports comes free to customers with XL Packages (oo-err)
it doesn't appear there is any europa on bt sport on the 22nd. Listings can be seen here: http://home.bt.com/entertainment/tv/tv-guide-01363796671705
I've just read this too! Oh yeah! I have the extra large package too! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-23709325
Fantastic news, I shall be upgrading ASAP. I don't know if I've got an XL package - oo er missus - but I'll soon have one if that's what it takes Searches round for deleted junk mail re the size of my wotsit.
Thanks for looking Spurm, so we're going to be 'TV less' in Georgia for this one, booooo to the TV companies!
Maybe, but not for sure. Swansea still aren't in the listings either, 1 of them must be on surely? Unless ITV only have rights to the group stages onwards?
This shows the current position. ITV have first choice and have chosen Swansea for the first leg and our game for the second leg. I guess ESPN/BT can choose a game from the other options - only us, as Wigan go straight through to the group stages. http://www.live-footballontv.com/live-uefa-europa-league-football-on-tv.html
Hahaha, and BT sport have chosen to show a look ahead to Ligue 1, a look ahead to the Bundesliga, a news show and some women's tennis. Dented pride much?
All options they can ditch if they get our game. I would have thought they want all the live games they can have at the moment.
great news. I've tried looking up how much it costs to upgrade to XL, but all the prices are for new customers. If anyone knows of price differences, please let me know!
I think it is £8 per jump. So M to XL is an extra £15/16 per month, from L to XL is another £8. Edit, looking in wrong bit M = 7.00 L = 14.50 XL = 25.00 This is with a V+ box. Add a couple of quid only if you use TIVO. So I guess the answer is subtract the one you have from 25.00
I think I may know why the TV coverage hasn't been confirmed. If the time has just been confirmed, then you can't schedule the match.
Hi SD, was just about to post this. So we may have the game covered after all, and I may be able to watch it on BT Sport via Virgin - whooh hooh - double bonus in one day - maybe. It seems I owe the club and the OS an apology on this one, if it's the Georgian side that's been holding news up. Although on second thoughts, maybe not. Why don't they have the grace/intelligence to tell us the reason there's no info, so we don't have to sit here in the dark, not like the proverbial mushrooms BTW, because we haven't even been fed bull****.
nice one SD, much appreciated. i think I've got M+, but it might be L. what you you mean about Tivo? I have Tivo!
I have V+. The charges are slightly higher for TIVO customers, but the difference between the packages is very similar.
I have Virgin M+ plus Sky Sports + ESPN, the difference to upgrade from M+ to XL is 16.50. However, I save the £8 that I was spending on ESPN so it costs an extra £8.50 per month. If I just add the BT it's an extra £15 (less the £8) so it works out an extra £7 a month. One way or the other they are going to screw more money out of me. Anyone tried threatening to leave? Do they offer you a deal?
