EAGLE-EYED Premier League fans will notice a change to this season’s TV coverage.
Top flight football returned over the weekend as five games were picked for broadcast on TNT Sports and Sky Sports between Friday and Monday.
But it is Premier League Productions that have made a new innovative scoreboard for the 2024/25 campaign.
So for fans watching their coverage, they will be treated to this creative tweak.
When a team scores a goal they receive a flash of something relevant to their club on the graphic.
For Manchester United’s goal against Fulham this was two pitchforks – which are a part of the Red Devils’ emblem.
Arsenal‘s was the firing of a cannon, while Brighton‘s was a flying seagull.
Newcastle‘s was a message that read “Toon Army” and Liverpool‘s was a liver bird.
Fans were loving the addition to the coverage after spotting the change.
One said: “Brilliant detail.”

NOTHING stays the same forever.
And that includes the Premier League, which is making a number of tweaks this season.
Team news will now be released 75 MINUTES before kick-off, 15 minutes earlier than had been the case before.
Things could get crowded on the touchline, with the number of substitutes permitted to warm-up boosted from three players per team to FIVE.
There’s also a change to how added time is calculated when a team scores a goal, an update to the ‘multiball’ system and the introduction of semi-automated offsides – but not straight away.

Another added: “Premier League Productions you’ve outdone yourselves.”
A third replied: “Arsenal’s cannon goes hard.”
While a fourth responded: “That Newcastle one is nice.”
