Do BT have two match directors, because there does seem to be a significant difference from week to week with the use of the BT Box.”

They have a few yes and thankfully, one isn't as BOX happy as the others.

As for Macca today... LOL

Bit off topic to last few posts but having watched Wolfsburg-Bayern last night I think it's high time that Phil Neville was promoted to their PL coverage, as co-commentator obviously.

*meanwhile, Hull v Newcastle has an average lower than 472k (source ITV media) and hence has not made the top 10 figures for that day. I'd think BT would be disappointed when their figures thus far have suggested an improvement on last season though it is arguably their weakest game of the season.

To be expected for such a weak looking game but equally im sure the Figures for Sky's Sunday games will be pretty poor as well.

Your going to get this during the year on both channels as you just cant keep showing high profile games week in week out.

Some speculation that BT may be about to secure coverage of the inaugural "European Games" in Baku this summer:

http://www.insidethegames.biz/major-...n-broadcasters

Would make some sense for them - They don't have a great deal of content for the summer - am I right in thinking they have lost some of the tennis coverage?

Will BT be covering the upcoming MLS season?

Speaking of buying up as many US sports rights as possible...
I hear Premiere Sport may not be getting the NASCAR Sprint Cup in 2015..

Anyone here know anything?
Would BT/ESPN plump for this?

Not a fan of NASCAR, but it may compliment Motogp and also WRC if BT were to secure it.

Wondering how BT Sport can get its 4K service into peoples' houses? One way may be via the new range of Sony TVs which have both Android andd YouView built into them. So if the 4K BT Sport channel(s) is not on the YouView EPG then I'm sure it will be in the Android app.

All pointless until the UHD spec's have been agreed across the board.
Until then, any UHD TV you buy may well be useless.

Just to say Broadcast reveals Hull vs Newcastle got 390,400 viewers, compared to the 270,900 watching the Championship game opposite it on Sky Sports 1. Rochdale vs Stoke got 356,600.

Hi popeye13,
Bit of a fluke really but..
I'm working for a month with an international media relations company that are doing the Daytona 500.
Word is....NASCAR is looking for better saturation from their 'British Isles' coverage.

So by looking for 'better saturation' NASCAR have managed to annoy pretty much all of their support in the UK.

MotoGP: Found the Casey Stoner doc in the BT catch up library last week but there is no sign of the Dani Pedrosa doc? Recorded these plus the Jorge Lorenzo doc last year but lost them when my old BT Youview box went tits up and was replaced. Anyone know if they plan to reshow these docs as part of the MotoGP season launch?

I hope BT/Espn get Nascar sadly i don't see it happening. But if they got it surely more viewers would watch it?
