Much better than the others, but just one thing, the yellow color on the rosters just reduces the overall standard.
If you reduce the intensity of yellow on the rosters (not talk about the bkg!), would look better imo.

I like the format, the layout, I like everything about the poster except the color. 9.9/10, change the color and you'd get a 10/10 from me.

yup one thing also, better to add Normal Tag text there as its the only image you didnt write any definition about the match like the others. Just to make it look symmetrical.

Some 1,300 barrels worth of oil are believed to have leaked into the North Sea from a Royal Dutch Shell rig, Shell said Monday.

The leak came from a flow line at the Gannet Alpha platform off the Scottish coast last week. Shell said the leaking well has since been shut.

The U.K. government's Department for Energy and Climate Change said that Shell was still trying to "completely halt" any further leakage.

While the leak was a large one for the area, the department noted, it was was small compared to the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico last year, which released nearly 5 million barrels.

The department said the oil would disperse naturally and was not expected to reach the shore.

It added that Britain's offshore oil industry had a strong safety record, "which is why it is disappointing that this spill has happened."

"We take any spill very seriously and we will be investigating the causes of the spill and learning any lessons from the response to it," the government said.

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency, which monitors the waters around Britain, has been making twice-daily flights over the area to monitor the situation.

Shell said in a statement released over the weekend that the spill covered a surface area of 19 miles by 2.7 miles and that the leak was under control.

The oil field, about 112 miles east of the city of Aberdeen, is operated by Shell and co-owned by Shell and Esso, a subsidiary of the U.S. oil firm Exxon Mobil.

Stuart Housden, director of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds Scotland, said razorbills, puffins and guillemots that gather in the North Sea in late summer could be at risk.
