ZiggaZaggaAthletic Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/6812-new-293479.aspx Are the club/web masters offering up clues or is something going down with cisak? Other than that abismal web creation! Quote
the_mighty_bosh Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Disgraceful from the OS. I was only just recovering from the shock of "M" and then they go and drop this bombshell on us too?! Pretty tactless if you ask me. Quote
ZiggaZaggaAthletic Posted August 6, 2012 Author Posted August 6, 2012 The article also says it was posted on the 8th August! :censored:s going down on wednesday when all will be revealed! Quote
qwerty Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I don't even use the website its rank a bit of common sense would have been to use old site then once new one is made switch over............................ Quote

oafcprozac Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I don't think this a wholly PTV problem any longer, look at other team's new sites…Dale's is fine, so are Hudders, Bury etc…. it's simply down to the fact we have no IT nouse at the club. Looks so unprofessional it's unreal. The programme was again littered with errors on Saturday, why not get someone who can actually read to check it before printing? Quote
razza699 Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I wanted to read on on the Hudds game yesterday from my phone . The whole site just wouldn't load. Its an absolute disgrace Quote
dec666 Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I haven't seen any other club with the same template as us, they have all chosen the cleaner looking one, which seems to run more smoothly than ours! Quote
AnthonyOAFC Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I think the website looks proper crap atm. Everything looks so unorganised. Hope they sort it. Quote
Oh Heck C-Beck Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 They have definitely picked the worst template - after using the new site I also retract my statement that it is better than the old one, its shocking! They need to get rid of that Times New Roman and whats the deal with news articles on 2 pages, when you click on page 2 there is usually just one sentence, surely we can just have longer pages? It is not uncommon to have a long page format now! I hate the way we are tied into this one company for all football league websites. Now the web is well established I am sure the club could do much better on its own and I think it would be much better if each club had an individual looking website! Quote
Wardie Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I don't even use the website its rank a bit of common sense would have been to use old site then once new one is made switch over............................ It would have been possible to get the shell of the site set-up and put in as much static information as possible, then when it goes live the new info starts to build as the weeks go on. All the archiving links, team pics,stats etc should be there, ready to use from the off. I don't think the club has anybody capable of administrating the site. Quote

Looks so unprofessional it's unreal. The programme was again littered with errors on Saturday, why not get someone who can actually read to check it before printing? I thought Latics had a partnership type deal with an IT company. I hate the way that it goes straight to a fixtures page who wants to look at the fixtures every time they go to the site? I agree Rochdales is miles better. straight to news, only one news item is highlighted at the top of the page which makes it look less cluttered (mind you it should be the latest one), I like the black background, Latics could have dark blue and the font is better. On the + side, I don't have the problem with news articles going over more than 1 page any-more, they seem to have cracked that irritant. Quote
