The old site has a link with ticket details for the Supermarine game on Monday.  The link however takes you to the town player.

Something has broken since yesterday. Fixture list keeps reloading the home page (firefox).

It didn't yesterday...It showed all fixtures (including pre-season).

Doesn't seem to have been planned or executed very well.

Should have moved the domain to a name server with a short ttl, to avoid the dns cascade and caching delay. Old site has been left active with out of date information. Mobile site is very slow to load and even when it does it simply doesn't work. Can't get the new site on my laptop, no doubt the old dns is being cached but I really can't be arsed to do anything about it.

Not the best time to update it either, ideal time would have been straight after the end of last season.

My first thought was confusing and messy. Yes, image-based websites sell products better than text-based sites, but I just want to read news and information about my club!

I'm sure I am pointing out the bleeding obvious, but Its not just us that has the new format, seems a number of football league clubs use the same website format so I guess this is website wide, rather than a Swindon decision.

I've changed my mind. It's actually a bit shit. None of the links to STFC Player work and it just doesn't work properly Crash

It just seems a bit unorganised and most of the images don't seem to actually appear.

I love the way one sentence of every news article scrolls on to a second page  Crash

Don't like it at all.

I gave it a week and I agree. Too cluttered/broken/rubbish.

Don't use the OS that much anyway, so I won't lose sleep over it.

I use the official site less and less these days due to getting news quicker elsewhere.

The new design is fine, I've experienced no problems thus far.

I think its not too bad
 They seriously need to develop.a mobile version of the site however. It's impossible to run the site on a phone.

The new site is rubbish!

Not helped by them not updating it. Where is the news re. the Stoke and Scum tickets?

I really dislike the new site.
I've given it a few weeks, to give it a chance, but it is crap.

I went on there today to look up something about the coaching staff, but if you click on coaching staff it takes you to Aden Flints view of last night. I would love to know how the site traffic is doing.

Still, I got what I wanted from Wikipedia, so no need to use the official site.
