RE: Because its not very good Why do the club persist with this Rob Knowles bloke. It's clear that he's not very good at what he does and has apparantley pissed off quite a few on here as well, surley there are better people out there that can maintain a decent website!!!
Lets not get personal The site is ***** though and I suspect that its mainly to do with the contract.</p> Though I am bemused as to why the club persist in posting non stories with links that are tenuous at best to BFC.</p> Surely they could put more stuff on to do with the club ie player interviews etc etc.</p> The clubs PR is not very good at all.</p>
I think they have to put on x number of new stories every week as a condition of FLPTV providing the service.</p> So any old ***** will do...</p> ..on second thoughts perhaps its lazy arsed attitude thats at fault</p>
oh that old chestnut Rob knowles has stated in the past that contractual obligation states that clubs must provide X number of stories a day. I have checked every other football league website and we are the only one that provides this many. most have a couple a day if that. ie only knews about their club.</p> I emailed the football league to ask about this contract and the reply was interesting. The stories didn't seem to agree with each other</p>
RE: Interesting pill I swallowed that clubs decide how many news stories to publish. Of course Barnsley could have a different contract to the rest of the league
Its a crying shame that the club cant be arsed to post stories that are remotely connected to the current football situation at Oakwell.</p> Perhaps its a hangover from when there was nothing positive at all to report. A **** <strike>excuse</strike> reason I know but its the only <strike>excuse</strike> reason I can think of.</p> A change of attitude is required.</p>
I don't think anybody would mind If rob just created two catagories for the news and kept them on seperate pages.</p> BFC news and General News</p>
thanks how do you mean?</p> If you mean how do I get the pics in my signature to show randomly then I created a folder and put all the pictures in there then made (copied) a php script which does the hardwork and tells the bbs to load a random one. the image address in my signature goes to ..../rotate.php rather than to a .gif or .jpg for example. the php file then tells it what to do. erm i think.</p> Thats if that is what you meant.</p>
