BBC Football website

WTF has happened to it- it looks like someone has vomited over the screen. The format was previously good and organised- now its all over the place with a big twatter feed in the middle. Maybe I'mjust getting old?

It's awful, why they have decided to change it, i dont know

I hate it, I really do.

The former site was suberb, and advert as to what websites should be. Clear, concise and user friendly. This new look reminds me of the Olympic logo irt is that bad.

Having looked at it once only so far, the thing that got me was that even though you clicked through to looking at League Two, a lump of the page was still devoted to bloody Premier "football". Also of note is that, if you look at the squad, Walton seems to be listed as a keeper.

The Beeb seem to do that a lot - take something that works perfectly OK and "improve" it.

Nightmare, not only does it look horrible but the layout is enough to make you spit, football web pages have just done something similar so I have stopped going there as well. I suppose the DG has got to justify his £800 grand a year by doing something.

It does appear to be a case of placing design over functionality, and although the normal reaction to website/magazine/newspaper redesigns is 'Ugh, it's nowhere near as good as it was", there are definitely some odd choices. All I wanted to find the other night was the vidiprinter. Gave up after a few minutes.

With all the Delivering Quality First nonsense going on at the beeb, I'd have thought they'd have been better off putting what's clearly A LOT of funding into, y'know, making programmes.

....and I've just discovered that results and fixtures are grouped by month - not by week. The dates are there but in the same font as the main information. It makes it a sod to read!

I'm like the Beeb but I wish it would stop wasting it's resources in such ways.

Whilst they're at it, withdraw their retransmission fees to SKY. In fact, charge SKY for the right to broadcast their channels. Over 50% of SKY TV use is watching the free BBC channels anyway.

Also, get rid of Jonathan Ross. Oh wait.
