It wont be better, all Clubs had to choose from 3 designs I think. It's a shame. The website at the minute are very good. Shame it has to change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 And why does it HAVE to change? Why change something from great to shite? what kind of backwards thinking is that?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Has anyone seen the Gas website? Looks like it was designed by a five year old. Hope we don't get the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderincornwall Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Personally i think the current website is poor. not a huge fan of the new ones but its an improvement, even if there will (and there will) be teething issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 The current website's shit. The new one will be worse. It's a real shame, Bristol's full of excellent web design agencies that could do a better job in two weeks for ten grand than the football league manage when they spend 6 or 7 figures.

Guest Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 And why does it HAVE to change? Why change something from great to shite? what kind of backwards thinking is that?! Because the 10 year deal with PTV ran out in summer, another company won the rights to next 10 years. They have to change to there new system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Why can't clubs have their own website ? Why does everything have to be so corporate/formulaic ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsKev Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Because the football league sold the rights as a 72 club package There must be some exceptions in that case. Have a gander at Accy Stanley, defo not a ptv model. Saying that didn't it used to be the case that the amount of traffic through the site determined the amount of revenue we received from Ptv or have I dreamed that up.

It would appear that clubs recently promoted to the FL or relegated from the PL don't fall under the agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 The top of the page where the news is, is about the the only bit I use so for me it doesn't appear to have changed much, unless I am missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always Believesham Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 It would appear that clubs recently promoted to the FL or relegated from the PL don't fall under the agreement. This does look like it, Birmingham had the same website for years when a couple of updates were done on ours and the rest of the football league, they've only just updated from what we used to have in '03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think its happened yet, I agree though - as much as it may be difficult to navigate, the content is always good from the club and that's what matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardiffBlackLabel Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 All of the new websites I've been on have been absolutely cack. Difficult to navigate, style over substance, designed for 5 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semblar Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 It's better than the first showings of the new templates a few weeks back - but better than a pile of cack isn't saying much. For those who only go on there for the news headlines, it won't make much difference - but for those that like to check out some of the lesser-visited parts of the site it will take a while to get used to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezo Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 And why does it HAVE to change? Why change something from great to shite? what kind of backwards thinking is that?!

UREDS_91 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 They should have used the same layout as the Barnsley FC site, with a HD panoramic image of Aston Gate pitch in the background. Red and Black theme with white outlines. etc (to match the kit colours) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne allisons tongues Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Just looked on my phone and it looks a mess, bits of pictures everywhere and lots of little sections at bottom.
