MY comment re the story about the Virgin and Sky battle in The Bolton News is that, for my family, it only has an upside.

That is, it has relieved us of the decision of having to switch rubbish off when trying to find something good to watch.

The FA should take a leaf out of their book and switch football off too. Then what would the poor clubs and players do? Well, they say "hope springs eternal" and, after all, we have an early Spring, so you never know.
