Club website idea? : Mon Dec 12, 2011 7:18 pm  

Hi Does anyone know if the controller of the official site uses this forum? If so, I just wanted to make a simple suggestion. I see that the club are now offering the option to buy season tickets online. However, I feel that this could be marketed better in order to gain more season ticket sales. I believe there should be a full intro page dedicated to the sale of season tickets. That should be the first thing that someone sees when they go on the website. From that page, they could either buy season tickets straight away or click another button to enter the website as normal? Either way, when someone sees that as the first thing when going on to the website, they can not miss it. It will make them think about it. See Halifax's website for an example of what I mean. They dedicate an intro page to their new kit which is for sale; http://www.halifaxrlfc.co.uk/

For some reason Connor our Website is not used as it should. It should be brimming with information, kit sales, season ticket sales, fans stories, but it doesnt seem to want to grab anybody. I agree someone should be looking at other sites for ideas etc. Shame as this would be the first port of call for any new fans and probably sponsors too.

From what I was told , having a splashscreen is something that is'nt possible to do with Wordpress , the system our web designer uses .

Do season tickets cover Northern Rail games this year?

Re: Club website idea? : Wed Dec 14, 2011 11:35 pm  

The club has sent an e-mail reminder about this season's launch and to those that have not renewed their season ticket for 2012 which includes a hyperlink to the website

I have recently been browsing the updated Cougars website (it's about time!). I applaud the club for listening to fans and making teamwear available. There are no pictures at this stage, but some of gear looks good. This year you can buy shorts, polo-shirts, hoodies etc etc.

Credit where credit is due. Another big well done to JD and the team.
