Is it me or does the Town website be rarely updated? Plus I also think its a very plain website with little insight into the club. It needs a bit of colour and pictures to brighten it up a bit. Does anyone agree or am I on my own on this one??:confused:

In fairness it just requires people to take the time to do profiles etc, send on pictures, do reports, interviews. Like a lot of things there was never anyone bothered enough to do it. It's not costing the club anything either bear in mind, maybe 40 or 50 quid for the domain name renewal every year, nor did it cost them anything to get built and set up.
I totally agree. There should be more info on the past, the history of the club and mayb some old photos of Previous teams. Surely de likes of Alan Matthews and Stephen Kenny deserve a mention as well as the old players like Jamesie Farrell, Zack Hackett, Mark Monaghan, Keith O'Connor, etc. I loved dat DVD they brought out a while ago as well. They should trying selling stuff as well, try to promote de town. Just an idea anyway...
The photo gallery only goes back as far as 2007.
Yeah agree with Two Left Boots there. They should have a history thing on past players managers and I'm sure there's photo's floating round somewhere on past teams!!
Here's one, can you name them?

Some good photos of paddy clabby teams also.....
U should get onto de town website. Tell them to put dat up. Dat's a classic.
Jaysus thats a blast from the past!!
Well Zac is there as well as leo, jelly keenan and pierce walsh i think!!
And thats hardly a very young stephen kelly in the back?
Synan Braddish?
Terry Wogan?
Morris-Burke?
Half them prob aren't on it but just a guess!! Only know 4/5 for definite!!
what year is that photo?
Who's standing in between Zac and who I think is Stephen Kelly?? He looks familiar as well. I was only a young gasson in them days, spent my time standing behind them goals after the ball!!! He nearly looks like John Cleary with a mad hair do!!! But he only managed us didn't he??? But also looks like Frank McNamee. Alan Weldrick is that who it is?????
Is dat Donal Sweeney in the red tracksuit top and bottoms by any chance?
I'm sure if you email any photos or whatever they'll put them up on the site somewhere or even put them in the programme this season. admin@ltfc.ie .
i agree the website could do with being updated..but like the match programme..people are happy to give out about it and yet wont bother contributing to it..
found this photo in a old longford town program from 1991..Quote:

I'd often notice through the season the table not being updated, which would be a basic you'd imagine, they might work on that this season.
Aside from that much of it is a two birds with one stone job - notes included in the paper go on the website or vice versa.
I contacted the email on it once with some query and never got a reply so I'm not sure of who's actually dealing with that side, but you cant really blame or criticise if there's none too many to contribute.
