What do you think I noticed over the last month other clubs changing to the same format >> [url=http://www.grimsby-townfc.co.uk/page/Home] http://www.grimsby-townfc.co.uk/page/Home[/url] I prefer the old website, but not only that previous statistics as well as history going back to 2001 have now gone!

Hasn't changed yet for me thankfully probably my cache, however if they are going the same way as Lincoln's and Luton's has gone recently then they are horrible, and like you say alot of the stuff of interest like the stats are missing.

The front page is frigging appalling and looks like it has been designed by a blind man.
And the next game is...................................Southport away. They must have cancelled the rest of the friendlies.

It has they've it back though. I can imagine its taking a while to fine tune the content what with it being a completely new template.

Wouldn't the sensible thing be to 'fine tune' it first, then release it???

Probably so, but trialing it online to see whats working and what isn't is probably the best way to go as there is only so much you can do when you preview in the admin section of it. Anyhow my experience isn't in web design so I'm probably wrong.

Nope I haven't any experience either, although I did think you could make it 'live' but restrict the access?
Either way, someone would have commented that the website was down if access was restricted so I guess they had the best intentions.

I quite like the design. A lot of the mentions against the website seem to be content based, rather than the design. If there is contact section why not e-mail them and ask if something is going to be done to amend whatever grievance you have. If you're going to criticise something like this, at least be constructive and let them know. As someone with a degree in Applied Computing, when developing a website, I find feedback is a huge factor in producing something that the majority of the customer base will like. Think of it like this, if you designed something it's obvious you're going to like it and other people may not. The only way around this is customer feedback, so if you want something done about it get in touch with them and provide constructive feedback!
One final thing - Remember when the BBC Sport design changed, I remember a lot of negative feedback initially, until people got used to it. People don't like change and take a while to adapt to new things!

Unfortunately I don't think GTFC itself has much say in the design, its the generic football site that most clubs use nowadays with the "player" thingy isn't it? Hence why they are all the same. The design is shocking compared to what it did look like, as for the content that is missing hopefully it will re-appear at some point, but I don't hold out much hope. The other sites that have changed over to the new design, over a week ago don't have links to any of the stats or whatever which used to be there.

yeah, I didn't like the new bbc site but now I'm used to it (I still think the old design was better though). I quite like the Exiting New Official Site

Not bothered about the website change. As LeeGTFC says above, people don't like change and people will get used to it in a few months.
It's the commentary on Mariners Player that needs sorting out. I've said it before but the guy who does it is terrible. I'd rather have no commentary than him doing it getting names wrong and pronouncing names wrong. He is still calling Soares "suarez", he somehow manages to say Southwell as "Suthell" and mistakes Pearson for Miller.

When you access the site you maybe viewing a cached version of the website. Clear cookies and try again maybe? If that doesn't work, I'm not too sure.

When he pronounces southwell as suthell that could be his accent, but calling miller pearson and pearson miller is dreadful is the commentator still john moore?

I think design wise it's fantastic. Very much 'on trend' and far better than the static wordpress-esque old site. As for the content, it's only been a few days so give them a break!
PS. Grim Reaper is right, if you want a lesson in how a website shouldn't look, then thefishy.co.uk is a great place to start.

Well if you aren't happy with the website may I suggest that yourself and Grimreaper start your own website and intercourse off there? PS: The new OS looks crap.

I am certainly no expert but I think the new OS looks pretty good. As someone else mentioned everyone moaned when they changed the bbc football one (me included) but now I am used to it.
Change happens. Embrace it!
