FormerRussianSpy 163 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Behold the beautiful new Chelseafc.comI've yet to see a more professional looking website from another football club. I know there are a few fellow web design geeks around, any thoughts lads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulham Broadway 17,367 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yup does look better. Will it still be the last place on the net to mention any transfers, and ignore the fans requests ? probably. Still not as bad as the magazine.No it looks good though -almost as good as TC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormerRussianSpy 163 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yup does look better. Will it still be the last place on the net to mention any transfers, and ignore the fans requests ? probably.Couldn't have said it better. I guess the sluggish transfer reporting gives it a 'final word' type of effect. Like, a transfer isn't totally official until the CFC website has it's say lol.Now it looks good though -almost as good as TCAgreed. I can honestly say the first reason I was intrigued enough to read/browse around the forum was TC's functionality and aesthetically pleasing design.

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 The player profile 'conveyor belt' section at the bottom looks horribly amateurish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rising Sun 711 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 The site is much more interactive now, and has much more information packed into the front page, unlike before where you had to go around finding info....Good Job.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Looks far better than before. We'd had the previous template from 2009 and it was starting to show its age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Finally they sorted that top section out and get the priorities straigt: not having the Shopping button before anything else, for example. Something you´d expect from a Clubs Website, really. Now they still have the CFC Shop in a prominent position but a little less obvious than before.It looks good, all in all, but I have to say that I am sometimes disappointed with the lack of news you get from the website compared to other offical sports websites concerning football.

Term-X 7,891 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I prefered the silver one, with the trophies displayed at the top, and the loading screen being a guy doing kick ups.Although, the new design is better than the last one. The PSG site is miles ahead of this though, it’s more interactive, they also offer fans free High Resolution images, uploaded daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormerRussianSpy 163 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 The player profile 'conveyor belt' section at the bottom looks horribly amateurish.The right idea, wrong execution. Compared to the rest of the page it's a bit dry. I'm still loving the update overall though, definitely.The PSG site is miles ahead of this though, it’s more interactive, they also offer fans free High Resolution images, uploaded daily.Hadn't seen that before...it's class. I had Inter's website in mind for comparison :lol2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 ^ Indeed.And like I said, they offer fans free HIGH quality/HIGH resolution images. As Chelsea fans we have to rely on Steve posting them, and he has to pay for that privilege. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might see if i can make our site have a news at the top like that.I think the Man City site is one of the best around http://mcfc.co.uk/.

zolayes 14,489 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 really only go to CFC to read Pat Nevin and Giles Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBagley 2 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 As a web developer, the Chelsea site is improving update on update, but the overall structure hasn't changed, because they using the same backend since the beginning of time.It's a massive undertaking to redo the entire thing, which would then result in us having a quality site like PSG or MCFC.The player profile carousel is complete rubbish as are the small fonts used everywhere. The blue footer area is also really poorly designed. Chelsea could do SO much better. I guess it does the job though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lengthwise 17 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I think it looks good, definitly beenn improvng through the few last versions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinol 337 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Having a good and nice looking site is important for our club, but having the best and nicest looking site isnt something i really care about. Weve got more important things to care about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm drunk for a month straight and this happens? I don't want to live on this planet anymore, things are just too different for an old man like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
