No press release from them yet, hopefully to come this week before the Premier League Season returns.

This press release for Radio coverage indicates the BBC will also be showing the Women's League Cup Final as well as WSL & Women's FA Cup

Here's the full 15 fixtures announced for the first month or so of the WSL on BBC & Sky

Much 'thinner' font for the UEFA SuperCup graphics tonight on BT Sport. Presentation by Jake Humphrey with Eniola Aluko joining the team.

Any news on BT Sport UEFA Champions League Coverage this season, will Jake Humphrey become main host replacing Gary Lineker with someone like Matt Smith or Darrell Currie presenting the secondary coverage or will they bring someone else in?.


The Sport Thread - BcastCornwall - 11-08-2021

I get the impression Jake Humphrey will take it on considering a) the significant reduction of Premier League matches from the C19 affected 2020-1 season and b) no FA Cup ones also. Doing Saturday PM then either Tuesday or Wednesday (Lineker rarely did both until the end of the competition) would seem reasonable. Not seen it confirmed though.

Notable that James Richardson is to get the presentation gig for their Serie A coverage too, announced at the start of this evening's match.

but not exactly surprising!

He's in Belfast this evening, reporting on the match for Prime Video in Italy. (In fluent Italian, natch.)

Totally new graphics this year, I think? Certainly a new scorebar?

Then again the Super Cup is only once a year, and it’s so long since the last one, and so it’s hard to recall.

Also the first match of LiveScore’s foray into UEFA coverage in Ireland, and seemingly quite a few problems with streaming (and casting in particular) in the first half. Never mind, it’s on VMTV and BT Sport too.

it's the world feed graphics which have changed - I guess it follows the UEFA policy of getting a refresh each rights cycle.
Shame they didn't take the opportunity to refresh the Super Cup logo...

Saw the Super Cup graphics breifely and think they are last season's Champions League graphics reskinned, losing the Champions League font and star edges around the score.

Confident to say an improvement on last year's graphics, which off the top of my head I think are a reskinned version of the Champions League graphics set before 2018:

That’s exactly what they are of course. I missed it but there was apparently a new title sequence too (albeit using elements of last years). Of course the music is an arrangement of the Euro 2008 theme, as it has been for the past few years.

Indeed there is and here it is:

(Technically you could say there is a no intro every year as it's bespoke to whose playing)

Always loved the old Super Cup theme, reminded me of an action or crime drama. Looking through the YouTube archives the theme was last used in 2016 but the visual style was used until 2019:

Complete network BBC Football programme logos.

I imagine the Women’s Football Show will adopt a similar logo too.

I like them but wonder why MOTD2 is differentiated just by having an extra circle in the middle?


The Sport Thread - Tim G - 12-08-2021

Literally, two circles for Motd2, perhaps?
