Title: Sky Sports Live Games Scoreboard (rant)
Post by: Batch on Saturday, August 11, 2007, 20:56:06
Not that I watch any TV footy you understand, but what retard at Sky Sports thought it would be a good idea to make the new scoreboard a a fucking solid blue bar. It is very distracting.

But that's not the worse bit. They have put it in  the bottom left hand corner of the screen. It covers some of the pitch.

It's big and not clever.

Message Ends.

Agreed - it is distracting.

I remember the good ol' days when the score wasn't on the screen and the likes of Motson saying "If you've just got back from work...."

I know a lot of people complaining about this. Wont suprise me if they move it back to the top left. I think they tried to do something different, but it hasnt worked.

There's a few groups on Facebook bemoaning this already.  It's wank.

I didn't think much of the new score flashes on the Jeff Stelling saturday update thing. The font was too big so half the time the teams and the scorers merged into one. It also never said that Robert's goal was a penalty.

I think it said "Christian Roberts P".

The names merging into one is not a new thing, they had that problem last year. At half time the vidi-printer reported each score as HT and on the next line as FT.
