Back on the soapbox with a plea to the director of BBC’s generally splendid Match of the Day: Will you please make up your mind about your graphics?
If it’s not bad enough that substitutions are now announced merely by a caption in the bottom left hand corner of the screen while play continues, now it seems we have to cope with not one, not two, but three different graphics to introduce the teams, and if we’re lucky the system they’ll play, as the start of the game.
First up we’ll get a full screen line up and system type graphic while Motty, Pearcey or whoever witter over it, telling us who’s in who’s dropped to the bench and who’s got a groin strain.
Fine. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. So we’d better change it then.
