    The new site looks good so let take the finger out and let them know, good feedback is just as important as bad feedback.

    info@fai.ie

    Dont be shy, if you like the new look www.fai.ie then say so !!

    My opinion, the old one looked better but it wasn't updated. There is a search on the new one !! The quarterly PDF is the job, there is an online newsletter now which seems to be well organised so far. The only thing that i'd worry about is if this is kept up .... but right now, its the job !!

    info@fai.ie

    Get it in thre lads, in all fairness let them know !!
    Deserves repeating. Personally, I think the new website is a step in the right direction, if a tad dull for something that's ultimately supposed to be mainstream entertainment.

    What was it? One thing I can remember off the top of my head was that they didn't update the league cup page last season until the semis. Before that it just had a match report from the prrevious season's final.

    In a Derry match report, they commented on the woeful crowd at a UCD-Derry game (not what I'm whining at, before anyone comments!) and noted that the vast majority were Derry fans, even though Derry clearly only had 50/60 of the 500-ish crowd there. Utterly stupid thing to write (a) when you're after bringing in rules to fine clubs who are in any way critical of you and (b) when you're supposed to be helping all clubs, not running them into the ground.

    But stu, what you're saying there amounts to there being one rule for one and not for the other ?? .... surely thats not what you're suggesting is it ??

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    I hate that crap. It's like a mypost weekly review. See a UCD attendance or result and assume your own negative ideas.

    Exactly .... shame on me for even dreaming up something so off the wall, i'm off to flagellate myself now for even coming up with something like that !!

    Flagellation is just another form of self-abuse ...

    It's so much better than it was folks!
