View Full Version : FSC Logo weirdness

Has anyone else noticed that the FSC logo is the wrong place for EPL games? While the logo is always in the very upper right corner for all FSC broadcasts (except German games where it is moved down below the scoreboard on that side), the logo drops about an inch and a half down the right side for EPL games. :confused:
Not a big deal until the long British Airlines adds pops up next to it. Having that long white ad box show up about 2 inches from the top can be a little annoying. The "soccer.com" also shows up too low but isn't as annoying since it is smaller. I know this complaint doesn't rank with the usual problems but I thought I ask if it was bugging anybody else. :o
I think they have some kind of onscreen graphics template linked to the type of match because the logo is in the right place for everything else. The logo was in the right place for EPL games too until about 3 weeks ago. Then I noticed that they finally fixed the placement for German matches right before I noticed that the logo was too low for EPL games.

I've been meaning to start this thread...
It looks quite amateur when the British Airways logo pops up and it's not in a straight line with the score/time graphic. It almost looks like someone just slapped it up there with no thought at all as to aesthetics.
Come on guys, let's put it in the extreme upper corner and forget about it. Please?

All of their Intros and OUtros and graphics look like crap in my view. They look a bit 1998 or something. I think they could modernize them and streamline them, but still get the adverts and points across.

Just watched Wigan-Newcastle and they haven't fixed the logo placement yet so I'm bumping this. It makes me wonder if anyone at FSC watches their broadcasts. :rolleyes:

It's possibly in a different place because they're covering up some logo on the feed they're getting.
And if you're watching the logos and not the game...

As I said in the first post, I know its not a big deal. I'm just hoping they'll fix it. I wrote them an email but unlike Goltv they don't seem to read/reply to emails.
Perhaps you're right and they just added some logo a few weeks ago that FSC is trying to cover but I doubt it. The logo moved one day when there wasn't an early EPL game and they started with the German game. They moved the logo down during that game (you could see it move) and then it stayed down there for the following EPL game. Its been lower ever since.

The logo is in the perfect place for the German game, except when you get to injury time (which the Gernan feed puts under the main clock, a la ESPN2), in which case it covers that.
FSC is amateur hour.

Well I posted the first complaint about this so I thought I'd come back and report that FSC is doing a bit better on the FSC logo/bug placement. For most of the EPL matches this weekend, FSC had their channel logo in the upper right corner instead of part way down the right side like its been throughout the season. There were some errors such as having the logo increase in size for part of the Arsenal-Wigan 730Am broadcast and not fixing the logo for the noon match after it had been moved down for the German league game until awhile into the game. However overall they did a better job. Lets hope they can keep it up.
