***Official*** Brighton and Hove Albion Website.

[The Fifth Column]

If it is as crap as all the others using these templates I will give up using the official site, they are a step backwards in web design and truly awful to use, even more so on tablets and mobiles. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until tomorrow but fear we will be proven correct in our assumptions!

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Here, Argus Online or BBC for Albion news. The official site is shocking.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I know the club resisted the change for a long time so I presume they've held out for something better than the Palace version.

These are the four other formats currently being used (may have to click the "enter [clubwebsite] here" link in the top left to get past the player splash page).

All other teams use either of those formats except middlesbrough and leeds, who have similar pages, except the menu bar is across the top on one and down the side on the other

If website traffic falls then they will change to something, not visiting the site if it is bad is the only way to make a point..

 

[Surf's Up]

You never know, it might be really good.....but having tried a few of the 'upgraded' sites I have my doubts.

I always look on the team we're playing's web site and most of them are in the new format and all that are, are without exception, crap

Website re-designs made by other clubs was discussed earlier:

The BHA official website

Seems nobody from BHA noticed our lack of enthusiasm! General effect of changes was to improve worse ...

Dire. The backgrounds make the whole thing painful to look at.

We've had print since the mid 15th. c. We know something about what works and what doesn't -- learned through experience.
And we seem to have forgotten it all.

 

[Justice]

If its anything like Derby's then it will be shite.

 

[Colossal Squid]

So when is it happening? It is now yesterday's tomorrow but I don't see any changes

me neither

 

[tinx]

The leeds one posted above is probably the best of a bad bunch

 

[Mr Smggles]

As long as we don't resort to TYPING IN BLOCK CAPITALS, I will be happy. I loath and cannot stand this.

 

[tinx]

So we went with the same as Palace,

Bloody awful slow to load too much going on in the background. Very unimpressive design

 

[Bozza]

Has it actually changed very much?

I'm not sure I'd notice if I wasn't looking for it.

About the only strange thing is that when you click through to something you retain a horizontal menu bar near the top, but also gain a vertical menu down the left.

 

[beardy gull]

It's not changed yet. So no, it's not changed very much.
