New BBC Sport Website

Does anyone else agree with me, that the new BBC Sport website is a huge step backwards? Is it me or is it much harder to find what you are looking for now than before and there is less detail? e.g. only the top four scorers in the Championsip are shown as opposed to the top twelve or so before. The fixtures too are shown by league rather than by date.

Anybody else feel like e-mailing them to point out how poor the new site is?

Oh aye, the yellow is awful!



Cerise would have been so much better?

It would match Peacock Dreams eyes after a night on the Lambrusco!! (Somebody told me anyway)

The Videprinter is still there BUT it does not seem to update automatically. If you press F5 it does.

Try it out Tuesday evening

I prefer ESPN now, get the gamecast, stats, live table and current scores all on same page

I have tried that as well...its good BUT

I prefer my familiar BBC old Vidiprinter where it just rolls in all the latest results/scorers etc

It can be found easily by the following:


Go to BBC Football Page.

Click on the Search the BBC, type in vidiprinter.

If you click on the Football Live Scores under the heading Editors Choice that also takes you to the following:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/live_videprinter/default.stm


Or just Copy and Paste the above link onto your address panel at top.


I usually just save the most used pages in my Favourites folder.
