Fred T. Jane Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Aaaah... Soccer is back! And with it, a new video package for its display. I don't know how it will look on FoxSoccer, but here's SkySports' score bug from the Setanta broadcast of Sunderland-Tottenham Hotspur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2mr41h Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I like it - a little large (especially the damn Barclays icon), but it reads nicely. As long as it doesn't visually interfere with the on-pitch action, I'm game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Setanta's is the same as last year. Looks like they just borrowed the BBC's and changed the colors to match their logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDX Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 The new Sky Sports one in england is shocking, its a little box in the bottom left corner with 2 letters to represent each team. I'll grab a shot later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

officeglenn Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 The score bug from Sunderland-Tottenham was also used on the West Ham-Man City match on Rogers Sportsnet. Looks pretty decent. The whole redesign the Premier League undertook this year gets a thumbs-up from me.Also, those Man City kits are pure class. They look really good on TV. I may start paying attention to them from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I noticed that ESPN went with a thin line score bug for todays USA vs New Zealand women's match. No picture though. It was similar to the FOX Sports fooball ticker from last year except it wasn't at the absolute top of the screen. Room for 3 letter abbreviation, scre and a big USA Soccer crest at the right of the bug. Looked pretty good. Hopefully they will do that for tonight's MLS coverage as well.

RichardWitham Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 i can say that the FSC scorebug was the same as setanta's. i like it. they even have a sliver with the jersey color in it on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Actually Setanta's changed depending on which network was hosting the game. But yes it does include the sliver with the jersey color on it for those unfamiliar with the teams. Of course the Red Devils hold the ball 73% of the time and come away with 0 goals and 1 point . But if Reading does the same to Chel$ea I'll be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
