U.K. cabler courts country's leading commercial web
BySTEVE CLARKE
Beleaguered U.K. terrestrial broadcaster ITV and NTL, the Nasdaq-quoted British cabler that will rebrand as Virgin Media next year, are planning merger talks.

NTL, which earlier this year lost a bid for English premier league soccer rights, reported Wednesday increased losses and disappointing broadband take-up figures.

Didn't NTL have a stake in the club when they were the shirt sponsor? Do they still have one (if they did)? I can't remember who all owns what at NUFC.

Thx,
