No Halsey again so hopefully that's the end of that. The number is back though.

I know, sigh!

I wouldn't mind but if you play it from my shows it's still live and there's no number. I just don't see the point when there is such an obvious workaround.

Thanks. Today was the first I noticed it, and I was quite surprised. It is going to start to become the norm then?

Must be honest and say I have yet to see the numbers on BT Sport,only ones I`ve seen are on SKY Sports channels. As for how well BT are doing I have to say I am surprised they are doing so well. I agree about Michael Owen being bland and Mark Halsley being poor though.

Apparently Halsey has been pulled after a book and a newspaper column where he criticised some other refs. Which is unbelievable if true, because that's the one thing he was completely incapable of in the commentary box.

Ref Comment was one of the few interesting things on BT Sport commentary.

Not against the idea, but they got the wrong man. I give them top marks for trying to be innovative.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

Yeah the idea was fine but the wrong choice. You want a ex ref who isn`t afraid to say when a ref has made an error. Full marks to BT though for giving it a go. Now BT lets see an end to the `experiment` of the score and logo at the bottom of the screen!

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

telegramsam, l agree 100% with your comment of the Logo, it go to the top of the screen like everything else.

As anyone noticed that the ' numbers ' on Sky Sports has now been moved from the bottom left of the screen, to the top right of the screen. Good idea.
