QuoteI believe changes are to be made but no idea of the schedule.
are the fai just going to leave it like that or add some other stuff to it? its a bit of a joke.theres only news and the league tables. theres nothing on the website to encourage non league fans to go to games either.

Right now its a pointless exercise, its redundant.

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.
It beats having nothing. It needs to improve, but I'm willing to give it a bit longer to actually do it.
I got an email from the administrator yesterday when I had a query about fixtures.
He replied and asked me had I any suggestions for the site while I was at it.
I send him some ideas to eoghan.rice@fai.ie. Try the same the more input the more satisfied customers and hence the more it will encourage people to go to it more often.
Sould really be the place for breaking news, history on players, interviews, stats etc and finally some sections as gaeilge as weill like GUFC, FAI etc
Eoghan Rice, the Rovers fan?

All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.

I emailed them about future plans. This is the response I got:
The new league site is going to be launched next week and there will be lots of new features on it. As well as fixtures, match reports, tables etc. the new site will also carry regular interviews and q&a’s with players and managers. There will also be club profiles, manager profiles, competitions, polls, stats guides etc.
In terms of getting supporter input, we will have a section called “fans’ view”, where we will be asking supporters to write for the website on whatever league-related topic they want to. There is also a ‘spotlight on a supporter’ section, where fans answer q&a’s on their memories, favourite players etc.
The site will also carry multi-media capabilities, where we can stick up video and audio files, although this won’t happen straight away as there is still some work to be done on that side of things.
We are just going through the testing process at the moment, but the site will be ready to go live next week!

Sounds fantastic if they follow through with it.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Sounds great. Hope it happens, don't see why it wouldn't... I must say I'm coming around (slowly) to this FAI run league.
Nothing like bringing your personal crap into the public domain, eh KH?

No One Likes Us, We Don't Care
Good to see we beat Dundalk 3-0. Could have sworn it was the other way round.
It does. Having match previews up earlier and archived match reports should be done too.
the website they have now is only temporary i got this reply when i sent him an email.
We hired a top class web design company to put together a new website for the league, which, as I’m sure you’re aware, would be the first time the league had its own dedicated official website. That company – Webfactory – have been working on the site over the last few months, but in the meantime we have been using the existing site as a sort of holding measure. The existing site was only ever a temporary gesture just to give us some online presence before the proper site was launched.
Let's wait until their future plans are present plans before passing judgement. If I had a quid for every time the FAI said they were revamping the awful FAI website (still not great), I'd have...ooh, I'd say about E24. But that's still a lot of empty promises.
Completely agree, years upon years of dashed hope has people hardened and bitter, and quite rightly so too. It up to them to prove us all wrong. Horrible situation i know but it didn't get that way over night and it wont be solved over night either. Lots done and lots more to do.

Great... will we see Maribor Kev's delaney Muppt show article up there soon then?
Any word on when its up?
We'll never die!
Credit where it's due - it's been revamped. www.eircomloi.ie
Haven't had a chance to look through properly yet, but looks an improvement.
Does anyone else find the pages slow to load or is it just me?
Looks good though i have to say!
Life isn't all beer and football...some of us haven't touched a football in months
