    I bet you they won't. Premiership football is the crown jewels for any sports channel, and they will broadcast it on BT Sport, not some outpost of ESPN.
    I think the only channel still branded ESPN will be ESPN America next season.
    As you say, BT Sport will be showing the English Premiere League...

    I am a Virgin Media customer who only signed up because ESPN was free as part of the bundle. Am I entitles to cancel my contract?

    Thanks for the kind advice.

    I'm glad I didnt take it as now ESPN is back and I get the BT channels in HD for free now on Virgin Media! A deal must have been done at the last minute before the new footy season.
