BBC Football Website Again

[mune ni kamome]

Sorry I keep harping on about this one. I find it truly bizarre that you can't go to the site and just simply see the football results from the night before or the forthcoming fixtures or am I doing something wrong

You're doing something wrong. It's on the right of the page, in fact the football results are actually on the main sport page now which I don't believe they were before.

Reserved judgement but now come to opinion they really fked up that site and as a result rarely bother with it now .

Was a breeze to navigate before but now its user in unfriendly .

A real case of if it ain't broke

I can never find the scores either, well not without wading through all Premier scores etc

I agree with this - I definitely use it a lot less now than I used to. The structure (or rather lack of one) I find really odd.

I agree it's appalling, the fixtures thing did my head in last week. I think it was Wednesday, I just wanted to see a list of all games on that evening and that doesn't seem to be possible. I could see them by going through each division in turn, which I didn't want to do, or get a complete list, not sorted by date, so you had to work out which ones were today. I have removed the bookmark to the BBC sport from my list, not to use it again.

Agreed. I really don't like it.

I'm fed up of using it but is there a really quick and easy alternative people can recommend? All I want is fixtures and results
at a glance

I think its good. Like it

Completed a BBC survey about this. Questions clearly indicate that there are usability issues and that people are using the site less. Wouldn't be surprised if we see a major revision quite soon.

The fixtures/results display is the single biggest problem with the site...And they have had plenty of comments/complaints telling them so.

But, it appears the Beeb maybe learning as they say that work to rectify the situation is being undertaken "as a priority".

Watch this space...

I haven't had too many problems with the site, certainly no more than the previous site. There is a blog about the feedback they've got and the changes they are going to make.

all seems quite reasonable.

EDIT: Beaten to it!

Football365 is quite good or sky sports I think is ok

Classic case of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

 

[Butch Willykins]

it's awful and totally unfriendly for use on an iPad.

BBC, you f***ed up.

 

[Sweetie]

Given up on it and gone to Sky Sports now.

They don't seem to understand that a football fan is interested in all the leagues. When I wonder to myself "was there any footie last night" or "is there any football on tonight" I don't want to be clicking a drop-down menu for each league.

Probably 'improved' by a web developer who has no interest in football.
