New official City website

[Alex - Not City Matters]

The worse bit about the new site, is it is literally just a Wix page and one of the ones you have to pay extra for. I'm no computer wiz, but surely they could have designed their own or had someone do it.

I'm a web developer like to think I'm pretty normal but some are on planet zanussi, need to keep an eye on the techies otherwise they get carried away ... NO COMMON SENSE!!

 

[Jumanji]

I have given up on it.

I watch the vids on youtube now.

Ditto

 

[Worksop Blue]

Please god make it stop. My lad is 10 and he's created his own website which works better than this pile of poo.

 

[bluesoup]

Utter shite, can't even scroll on a page without things dropping off or disappearing! It's been a little while now since the new web site went live and I would have thought the snags would have been fixed by now!

 

[Delphacito]

The problem with the OS is that it seems to be built on the Wix platform, who is one of our sponsors. Any website built with any kind of 'tool' will always be shit.

Dont know what the fuss is aabout it does what I want it to do better than the old one. Its fine

Don't blame the developers.

Any reputable company user tests new software before release.

If City had done that they'd have found out that the new site is amateurish and poor.

But the old site wasn't too good either, and the ticket office has been dreadful for decades.

City don't do customer service very well.

Was away on holliers for a week and hoped that in that time there may be improvements but I still can't get any decent performance on the site from my iPad.

One of my staff has just completed a sports journalism degree, and has spent the last year at City, United, and Lancashire Cricket.

He’s been telling me for more than a year that most of the local journalists don’t think that City will have a website in the near future. Apparently it’s served its purpose, and doesn’t actually make money.

I’ve always disagreed, mainly along the lines of the website being popular and entertaining.

However, since these amateurish changes, I'm starting to believe that this is all some kind of masterplan, where City want everyone to use their official Facebook and Twitter accounts.

They'll need some kind of online portal for ticket sales.

Nah! anyway, nothing will make money the amount we pay players. tell you what bugs me moving banners when game is on - distracting.

I still for the life of me can't navigate this God awful excuse for a website.

Will some techy type of person be kind enough to post links to:

Away game tickets.

Champions League ticket bundle selection for cup scheme members.

Cheers

In an era when exposure around the world is a necessity, and a world wide fan base is becoming just as important as match going fans, your employee thinks the club will suddenly stop using one of the best mediums it has in reaching out to them?
Nah.
