I'm currently with virgin media and am tempted to switch over to BT Broadband now they are offering their sports channels for free.


Anyone made the switch?


Is it a good deal? I can't work out whether the 'BT Sport app and online player' means you can watch live games or not. More expensive packages say they include the channels BT Sport 1,2&3 and ESPN. What's the difference to the online player? http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/products/tv/packages


I would like to start getting the football and some other sports on TV (currently only have freeview), what does everyone else do? What's the best value deal out there?

I gather Danny's Baker & Kelly are going to be pundits on the football 'show'.

In which case count me in.


I'm at the very very best indifferent to football, apart from 'proper' international contests, those that involve actually winning something players can lift above their heads and drink champagne from.


'Friendlies'??? Yo' momma and me gettin' frien'ly is all I know mofo.


The D's may be there ostensibly to football commentate/opinionate but if previous form is anything to go by, entertainment will be there in abundance.


If the Danny's is on scene, I'll be there Doreen.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
