Facebook and Twitter are filling the gaps though as most Tigers fans sadly don't bother with Whatsbev.

I wonder if the bbl site will ever go fully live rather than it's cut down version? .... Mayor, facebook and twitter should not have the fill the gap as you put it...

Which the club are actively using - although that is a long way from ideal - and we desperately need a website!!! Cheers Edited by The Mayor, Nov 5 2009, 01:52 PM.

Bench Player Posts: 178 Group: Member Member #881 Joined: October 21, 2006	The cut down website would be better than nothing I guess, but for the fact it's not accurate:- 'The star performer is Tigers� Forward Jerome Gumbs. In both games, Gumbs grabbed 10 rebounds as well as putting up 27 points in the first one, a home tie against the Guildford Heat which the Tigers won 84-72, and 35 points in the next one, when the Tigers beat the Newcastle Eagles away from home' Quote taken from the Team of the Week#7. As an Eagles fan, that was one home game I missed!

If you don't go far enough down you don't spot it. I had that problem when I was searching the site for the table a few weeks ago; I didn't scroll down far enough. Is it just me getting confused; or is the BBL site getting "re-designed" on almost an annual basis ? I used to think it was fairly good and would visit it regularly. Now it is only if I want to check something specific. A shame really and I don't understand why an organisation wiyh limited resources appears to give itsely uneccessary extra work. I don't know all the details but all I can say (rightly or wrongly) is that this is the perception I have of the last few years.

The website that Glen mentions is on a direct link from the main BBL website as far as I am aware an official part of the BBL website.

And far easier than finding out where they actually play!!!

Franchise Player Posts: 2,517 Group: Moderator Member #38 Joined: July 11, 2006	Yeah, whatever the rights of wrongs of the BBL website situation it shouldn't be beyond any club to have a simple information page available - next few fixtures, venue address, email address & phone number for enquires etc.

Basketball Legend Posts: 9,050 Group: Global Moderator Member #1,234 Joined: December 23, 2006	seems the 2 companies involved in the original website plan both went into administration the new website should up "in the next week" according to Britball
