shanks Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Just been on this 'informative' website. Checked out the link section. Ballingry Rovers - how are they doing? Oh wait a minute, They're aff the game and have been for a while. Why then is there still a link on ersjfa.com? Amateurish if you ask me. Still to check if there are still links for Halbeath, Rosslyn Juniors, Dunnikier Colliery, Elie Thistle and Steelend Vics. XXXX me - Steelend Vics are still listed! Come on Mr Webmaster - show a wee bit enthusiasm, please. Junior fitba followers are, in the main, really passionate about this level of the game. It would be great if the association could share the same passion. Just sayin', like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senderos Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Got to agree that the "Links" page needs updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Northerner Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Results & tables are updated pretty quickly after the final whistle. Given there was nothing at all a few years back, we're doing OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellyboy Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 All websites are the same. Links is one of the last things that needs updated on a website. Simple- click on the link and it doesn't work then type Google in the address bar, type the name of the club and then you will find out if site has changed, club has gone, etc etc. Its fair to say the East site is streets ahead of West in terms of updates, results, tables, games on/off only the North beats it in terms of news but I think the East Region site is better than them both. Its a PT job and priorities have to come in to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 In a lot of cases, any links pages on websites either need to be checked for each individual link to check that the website in question is still live, or the relevant clubs need to liaise changes. I recently contacted the ERSJFA webmaster to inform him of a change to our website url and this was actioned swiftly. But I know our links page will need work because I haven't had time or chance to go through each individual link to check that club's website is still live.

gaz5 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Having built and run a few websites links pages are more trouble than they are worth and I'd never have one. These days most people are pretty proficient at using Google, so it's kinda redundant (other than helping those sites in their search engine rating). That said, if all anyone can find to moan about is an out of date links page I reckon whoever runs that site is doing pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian44wood Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 This sites great for getting the results/league positions on saturdays. They're usually pretty quick on getting them online. I watch a few teams in the east and In the winter the games that are called of are on here early so you have time to change your game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, Jez, that some teams change their addresses and it's up to the clubs to inform the association if they do this but FFS links to deid clubs should be deleted from ERSJFA site.

shanks Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Results & tables are updated pretty quickly after the final whistle. Given there was nothing at all a few years back, we're doing OK Half five - that is one hour and 45 minutes after full-time and still no results up yet. Define 'pretty quickly'.

The Old Northerner Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Half five - that is one hour and 45 minutes after full-time and still no results up yet. Define 'pretty quickly'. They're all up now. And as @ftsc0res is now just putting his classified on twitter, I'm going to guess that there was a delay in getting some results. Less than two and a half hours after the final whistle. We'll define that as 'pretty quickly' and then see what happens over the coming weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 On the SJFA website, I note they still call Rosyth "Rosyth Recreation", which they dropped about a decade ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Region Jambo Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 God, some people are never happy, I know the guy that does the website, think he does a great job. FYI he was at a match over an hour away on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
