BT Sport - Launch of BT Sport Ultimate

This 'Score' show is new am I right? Their twitter account has nearly 100k followers already?!

Think it's the old @FletchandSav twitter repurposed, so inherits the followers.

Score seems to have more on screen personnel than the BBC have for the Olympics.

Interesting that there's an extension of Score on BTSX1 until 1730, wasn't aware of that being previously scheduled.

it was in the plan as long ago as yesterday

Ah ... a little forward planning then ....................

I'm sure it was in the pipeline for longer - that's just when I found out about it!

Incidentally, UCL is back next week: 5 live games from the play-offs on Tuesday and Wednesday.

And following on from BT's purchase of EE...

Wonder if they'll extend the Score branding to the show they do for the Champions League / Europa League. I suspect if they do it'll be in a smaller studio unless they send Gary out on the road for the main matches.

The Goals Show is a bit of a different beast - as they can show match footage, the studio spend a lot less time on screen. They prefer to be in studio 2 (because it's easier to fit people round the desk), but often end up squeezed in to the mezzanine because it's the only space that's free.

I think the sofa's going to be squeezed firmly in the cupboard on Champions League nights.

They don't appear to be doing a Goals Show for the play off round incidentally.

No significant changes at the beginning of this season's UELACL coverage, whether they're waiting for the competition proper to start, we'll need to wait. Anyway Lineker was dressed, suppose that's a start.
