Not sure why blue and black are the dominant colours rather than the greens used on the generic football graphics and the ITV Sport logo, but overall looks quite nice. I think this is the recently intorduced font used on the ITV website, programme trailers etc.?
With Jill Douglas based in France during the Rugby World Cup, Rishi Persad is leading the coverage this week from Cheltenham. The ITV snooker coverage is generally excellent, but one gripe I do have is the lack of multi-table coverage that is standard with the BBC and Eurosport (there's four tables playing this afternoon). You'd hope with the advent of ITVX this would become a possibility, but as of yet it does not look it will happen.
PS Nice touch that the trophy is the Clive Everton Trophy after his lengthy commentary tenure with the BBC and latterly ITV, and his work as editor of the Snooker Scene magazine, that he stepped down from last September.
They moved away from the 2006 set at the World Series of Darts Finals the other week as well
