August 15th maybe?

The man who designed the titles for Soccer Saturday (is that what its called?) said he was cutting new titles on his Twitter.

In that case you'd expect a new look to come in on Friday which is when the football league coverage starts, and the next ashes test begins.

The 'source' on DS now says 0600 - Wednesday - DS .

Take it or leave it.

A rather pointless revamp. Is SSN the only Sky branded channel still stuck in 4:3?

Other than a font tweak I can't see any difference, what was the point in it, what has it achieved??

I have no idea how much effort that would have required from some to do but I very much doubt that your average punter would notice any difference, even with the before and after screenshot.

I think the new font allows more text to be displayed on screen - the old one looks rather wide, even in non-stretched 4:3.
