Change for changes sake.....

I quite like it. It may not be the best design but it's better than the old one. :smiles:

 

[BaileytheQuitter]

People always seem to moan with change. Actually think it looks a lot smarter and like the layout.

 

[Shrimper95]

Mine just keeps switching back between the old and the new site.

 

[Jam_Man]

Im either being really thick or it hasnt changed for everyone yet.

May be propagating at moment.


edit : Ah Ive got the new one now. I actually quite like it. Could do with a list of stories rather than having to scroll right, but prefer it to the old one.

Its magic eye, keep staring at it and within 3 hours it will change to the new one.

Mine took a while to appear, you must be looking at a cached version of the old one.

Is this why I'm having problems accessing it on my football league app?

 

[Southend United Football Club]

Thanks for the feedback so far.

The reason for the change is that Perform Group (formerly PremiumTV) have not had their contract renewed by Football League interactive (the company set-up to manager the online rights of the member clubs of the Football League).

Perform will for the next 12 months continue to run the Blues Player service whilst the main website is now operated with a new technical partner Sapient Nitro.

Clubs were given three templates to select from after consultation with them and a survey that supporters filled out online via the old websites. Although not 100 per cent individual it has allowed us to select something that we think works better for our Football Club.

Some of you are seeing the old site still as the DNS records worldwide (basically when way when you type in www.southendunited.co.uk if goes to the right server) take up to 48 hours to change worldwide and depending on which server your internet provider is connecting to will determine which site comes up.

As we said earlier on Twitter there are one or two things that are not working quite right yet and these bugs will be ironed out in the coming weeks but please flag anything up you see that isn't quite right.

The ticketing URL error is because we have a new online ticketing solution going live very shortly and that will be the new URL for it.

An update for The Football League app will be ready in time for the start of the new season.

If anyone else has any other questions I will do my best to answer them here.

**** sake! I can't update apps out here they never fully download cause our wifi is so ****! Brilliant!

New ticketing system :unsure: I wonder if we will be able to choose a seat :smile:

the new site is better than the old one and will take a bit of getting used to tho.
