RE: BT Sport - thegeek - 05-07-2023

I feel like doing some of the post-match rugby pres from the clubhouse continued until last season - perhaps on Sundays only? - up until Rugby Tonight moved to a studio wraparound.

VSPO was indeed the Vaguely Sporting Phone Out.

And I think this EFS intro could never be topped:

ESPN content continues right up until 0600 on the 18th, which is probably when you want to set your PVRs for the relaunch.

I think I saw some Friday night matches have their post-match coverage done from a clubhouse or similar during the 22/23 season. Don't think it was every week, got a memory of one form Gloucester from among fans but pitchside post-match in another match from Bristol.
Sundays were primarialy done from the studio with an hour long build-up featuring highlights of all the other matches that weekend and Rugby Tonight after the match (the same setup from at least January 2022 - I can't remeber what it was like before then).

New TNT Sports Box Office logo revealed as per a post on Twitter (I'll upload just the picture just in case the post does not load due to the new rate limits on the platform)

The logo is basically the same as the regular TNT Sports logo, in blue and with Box Office on the side

You may have to pay more for TNT Sports

I don’t think there’s anything there that wasn’t known before or at least speculated on, anyway. Absolutely no chance that they were going to be able to retail what is a premium sports offering, with the costs involved, at the same price they were retailing the basic cable Eurosport.

just spotted that the Facebook page has already been renamed TNT Sports. Perhaps someone was expecting it to take a couple of days for the change to be approved and wanted to make sure it was done in time.

It looks like they've picked up the rights to a couple of Champions League qualifiers (which AFAIK aren't part of the main rights package), so there'll be a chance to see a little bit of how they'll be doing things on the evening of the 18th.

Well their Twitter account is still named BT Sport, as well as their Instagram account. Will be interesting to see what will happen to their separate Twitter/Insta accounts for the sports they cover (WWE, UFC etc) - I'd say they'll either rename them under the TNT Sports name or shut them entirely.  

And it's just 8 days to the rebrand now so I'd say they will really ramp up the promotion for the rebrand at this stage.
