People are taking the piss out of the new BT Sport Score show – but not everyone hates it

BT Sport are going head-to-head with Sky Sports' flagship show, Soccer Saturday, this year.

It's a brave move, Jeff Stelling is a well-loved presenter, and the chemistry of the panel and reporters, including cult heroes Chris Kamara, Paul Merson and Matt Le Tissier, is such a vital element of its success, it's going to be difficult for BT Sport to recreate that. But on the first day of the season, a number of people were willing to give it a chance. https://twitter.com/Zlatandrew/status/764452703535849476 https://twitter.com/HannahSAFC/status/764454168903970816 The panel for BT Sport Score includes Harry Redknapp, Harry Kewell, John Hartson and Robbie Savage, all sat on a really, really long sofa. https://twitter.com/btsportscore/status/764451053639233536 Early reaction has not been the best. https://twitter.com/markbradbury72/status/764453681106411520 https://twitter.com/ThatGuyMartial/status/764454458214477824 https://twitter.com/TomWrightttt/status/764454567358627840 https://twitter.com/LmC_81/status/764454688884416512 https://twitter.com/LieutenantSloth/status/764454976068386816 The show also has other presenters who pitch in from different locations. https://twitter.com/RealConorJones/status/764455694003269632 A number of people pointed out that as well as having a really, really long sofa, the studio itself is massive. https://twitter.com/footieonTV/status/764455813058560000 https://twitter.com/markjamesede/status/764456596764299264 https://twitter.com/MikeLaff7/status/764457088630267904 Some people pointed out that the panel could struggle to match the chemistry of the team on Soccer Saturday. https://twitter.com/jay231176/status/764456956585209856 Clearly BT Sport are going for a different approach, which is a brave move, but one that could work if they get it right. The new approach has been met with positive reaction from some fans. https://twitter.com/at_gooner/status/764458196291452928 https://twitter.com/Jack_Howlett/status/764458011075158016   Read more from JOE:
