S-Clarke Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 I'm pretty sure it's still bound by a contract, the perform group or something? It was something we signed up to when we were a football league team under the Wilde days I think, and it had something like a ridiculous 10 year contract.

Same bog standard site as most EFL clubs, it's a bit of a mess like all the others, and some of the multiple clicking and duplication is pointless.

We're bound by contract to Football League Interactive (FLi) who used to use Perform group but had it replatformed by SapientNitro in 2012. I know this as I ran the RFP. Sorry.

Charlie Wayman Posted 22 July, 2016 Share Posted 22 July, 2016 There is some really excellent stuff on the OS but it is awful to navigate. The best bit by far for me is the You Tube space where new videos are posted more or less on a daily basis, those that can't be Rrsed to use the OS are missing out big time, how can anybody claim to be a supporter and not follow the OS everyday to keep in touch? Shane Long's interview today is unmissable if you really worry about the new season. Let's be honest most of what is written on here is speculative nonsense and if a certain type of person prefers to indulge in that without balancing it with a few facts from the OS than more fool them.

Saint Garrett Posted 24 July, 2016 Share Posted 24 July, 2016 You can subscribe to the Twitter account where they announce all news, so it sends you a notification when they tweet, handy for me.

buctootim Posted 24 July, 2016 Share Posted 24 July, 2016 Never understood why the pictures on the galleries are so small with no way (that I can see) of enlarging them. Almost every other website from shopping to estate agents allows you to zoom up to almost full screen size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockportsaint Posted 24 July, 2016 Share Posted 24 July, 2016 You have to put the www. for the official site or it won't work. Which just illustrates how amateurish the whole thing is - they have only registered a DNS record with the www, and not one without.

Slugger Posted 24 July, 2016 Share Posted 24 July, 2016 Minor point but they used to wrote longer articles with numerous quotes. Now to get more clicks they have shortened each article to being barely more than a couple of sentences of quotes, dragging a 3 min You Tube video into 2 or 3 separate articles over a few days. Its all taken from the You Tube so between that and Twitter there is no need to go there as the content is all there now. However, at least they use paragraphs, unlike Swansea's amateurs.

whelk Posted 25 July, 2016 Share Posted 25 July, 2016 I only go there to buy tickets not on my season ticket. They need to research their market as to why am I there and get me there quickly not send me in endless loops. Basic design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the features on the OS would qualify for winning entries on the fabulous http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/ saintsfc.co.uk works fine for me. I'm sure someone with a better working knowledge can correct me, but I don't think www is ever part of the domain name, rather just a convention that tells the server that the client is expecting some web content, but it could be anything. It's been a while since I was involved in such things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
