I like them. Orange and Black works. But this as this is a UEFA competition, it's odd that the graphics for the Euro championship qualifiers are just plain awful and ugly in comparison.

I think the scorebar could do with being smaller (and losing the pointless transparent bit behind the logo), but apart from that, the actual graphic design isn't bad.

What is bad is that even with a graphics refresh UEFA haven't moved the scorebar to a more sensible position on screen, it's still way too far down, only made more apparent by the BTS Europe logo being at a more sensible height.

Some suggestions around that BT and British Basketball are working on a Summer format, which would help fill airtime in the fallow football months, with domestic sport, possibly from 2016.

BT taking full advantage of their extended Bundesliga rights tonight and tomorrow with the league's first midweek programme of the season.

3 Matches live on both nights.
BTS2, BTSE and X2 tonight (they've already aired a Bundesliga Zwei match as a warm up)
BTS2, X2 and X3 tomorrow.

Extensive Ligue1 (2 live tonight and 2 tomorrow) and Serie A (1 tonight and 3 tomorrow) matches too. A Swiss match completes the selection tomorrow.

Interesting that the report from Malmo on the build-up to Malmo - Real, was from the Swedish rights holder Viasat SportSE's Frida Nordstrand tonight.

BT Sport Europe with the late commencement of the Aviva Premiership next weekend, seems to have developed a Eurovision Song Contest style geographic aberration, The channel features two sets of Aussie A League match, long-form highlights, on Saturday Afternoon.
