We're contemplating some sort of a site redesign (well, we've been contemplating it for ages, but we might actually get around to doing something about it soon) and so this thread is your opportunity to put forward ideas, suggestions, things you've been wanting to see, things you'd like to get shot of, etc). Obviously we won't guarantee to incorporate everything, or even anything, mooted here, but if you don't ask you (possibly) won't get.
For starters, one idea we're considering is the facility to post comments at the end of news items, like a real blog type thing.
Over to you...
Site redesign

Perhaps two different forums - one for optimists and one for pessimists to sort the deluded from the miserable?!!

Sitting on the fenceists?
A button to do a hyperlink so that you type the display text in the first box, and paste the url in the second box. Like the "insert email" button at the other place.
On the "where are they now", a news feed to say who has been updated and when. Or a link to the source of the update next to the player (although these links may well break down in time).
On the news and match reports, the contributor. I don't know if these are all written by Boris, or if there is a team of Rageonline writers.
In match details in the fixture list, the manager, the opponent's players, substitutions, cards, goal scorers. (I was trying to establish the last time that Jamie Cook lost a game at the home of Oxford United, whether playing for Oxford or the opposition. I think it is a long way back). [/url]

I pretty much agree with this. The site works really well as it is and is one of my favourite sites to visit."Boogie" wrote:If it ain't broke don't fix it.
The site works fine as it is.
Having comments after news items and match reports will just spread the comments around and make it harder to see comments on one topic in one place.
I'd move the Hat into a separate section though, like the Boot.

Moving on, it costs real dosh for the ISP maintenance as well as Martin’s free time to keep it all going, which got me thinking. Given that we’ve had over a million hits “since time began

This may be a tricky one for boris.
On the plus side the site is very clean from advertisements other than activemedia but I don’t see why we can’t sacrifice a small part of the website to companies like Bridle Insurance, Buildbase, Jack FM or even the bloke who promises a “life without debt
