I like the new site guys. The ranking and the forum avatars are great ideas! I also like how I can see the rankings of all the players in the league.

Only thing that is missing is being able to see the ranking of all the teams in the country. Would be way easier to work out who's ahead of you :P

I was waiting for a comment from you ;) Good post. I agree on the schedule beeing a bit hard to read and "line tracing" to find the correct link becomes an issue + the conference colors could be toned down a bit. I think it could work like it is now if: Date/Time - Away Team - Home Team - Status. But I will not attend any more PL's as they keep drawing my attention away from the important matches, namely league and cup. Scrimmages is also just for the minutes and I would rather not have them in my schedule, since I can't set up more than one week at a time either way. I would love a preference to hide scrimmages (and PL) matches from the schedule.
-Llinks to leagues lower than div II is a must. I did not feel very included before I reached II... Also, it would be easier for senior teams to welcome teams that keep on playing, but can't seem to reach up into the warmth of the community and for scouting players from new teams. Edit: Oh, perhaps wishful thinking, but a list of the 3-5 latest teams with an option to view more, or just the 10 latest teams. *rubbing hands and drooling*
-Avatars and signatures as an option to turn off if you want would be best, since some like them and others don't. Personally I like to see and get a visual link between the team and the manager, but understand that this is a bombardment of impressions that could be imposing on some.
-In the news section I would love to have the option of viewing the latest news from other divisions by choice. I like to keep an eye on future opponents and fellow managers. My own country would suffice.
-Agree also on player skill summary position. Would make a magnificent feature even better.
-Some minor adjustments in making less clicks needed as mentioned by other users elsewhere in this thread.

Almost forgot: Since so many pages are available without having to log in I wonder if it interferes with the timeout function? I find myself timed out a lot while searching the Transfer List/Player Market and while browsing other BB things not directly related to my team.

To BB's: Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to the new site

I don't quite get why the BBs are insisting on using the short menu or insisting on getting rid of the toolbar.

Why does it matter? Why is the short menu recommended and the long menu "Not Recommended"?

Can't see why it would matter to you guys..

BB-Charles stated that they want people to give it a try before condemning it (well, he didn't say the part with condemning, but you get the point).

I think it is because it is so easy to become slaves of habit, and they want effective feedback from a broad range of users: The ones that are prone to using the new menu, the ones that insist on the long menu and the ones that initially prefers the long meny but end up using the new version. I believe it is a matter of how to present the site to new teams. What the preset should be. You will probably get the option to choose the long menu as your preference once the site is officially released.

Edit:typo

I like the new features, but I DONT like the new page at all.....I hope it will never be implemented....sory guys...


I agree. Doesn't feel classy. I stick to this old one even without the new features. I especially don't like the suggested player for buying, it is annoying to see it all the time.

Excellent effort and congrats to all involved.

We will have to bare with any bugs...looking forward for the first game on the new site.
Anyone knows whether there are any new stuff during the games?

Suggestion: On the transfer market wouldnt be clever if we had the option to narrow down further our search criteria by adding the feature: overall mark eg min 7.5 max 9.0


Thanks
