Media New Official Club Website

[oxfordkits]

The new official website has just gone live. https://www.oufc.co.uk/

At first glance it looks great! I design and build websites for a living, so will decline to critique, I'll leave that for everyone else.

Some will undoubtedly say "it's not very yellow". I get that, but what I would say, is I purposely avoided yellow on oxfordkits.com to allow the images to shine. I suspect a similar thought process will have been taken for the club website. However, I think the navigation bar could at least be yellow!

Over to you....

Not fully working yet it seems as none of these links work.

Look forward to seeing what OUTV is!

 

[SteMerritt]

On my mobile, and TShirt sales come before upcoming fixtures. Guess our priorities are merch first, games second then.

Although if there isn't a popup ad shown every time you go into it then it's already an improvement.

OUTV!

Now we know why AB loves white merch!

Also the story about our EFL naughtiness is half a mile down the page.

Yellow is a really horrible colour for any website…. But that really does look like a Bolton website.

Oi!

I see you use the dark style on here

 

[Robie]

Oi!

Thank you for dark mode!

 

[Robie]

Yes its been a while since i have seen this forum in its shiny yellow glory!

 

[ScottishYellow]

New white home kit?

New white home kit?

I think that will go down well.

You could go for a subtle yellow rather than white, bit then you open yourself up to the 'it's not OUR yellow' criticism.

Better than the red on black links on ifollow which are murder for one who is a tad red/green field colour blind

 

[OUFCReport]

Interesting to see Edwards is still on there, even though most loans and OOC players have been removed

That is something which should be caught at the design stage. Really feel for people who have to put up with oversights like this.

I love the fact there are about 172 different fonts

Comic sans in there?

 

[OUFCReport]

New badge too as the new Icon on Chrome

 

[Northstandboy]

Do any of the navigation many links work?

Whats the betting someone switched it over too soon.

Surprised there is no “new website” story on launch.

 

[WokinghamYellow]

How can it be live for so long without fixing the dam navigation, absolute amateurs

 

[East Stand Fan]

Bit jarring at first but I'm sure it'll grow and I already like the fact that the functionality seems better when going to the ticket page. The old site was nice and clean but there were some elements that made it a bit cumbersome like the yellows account sign in.

 

[Steve Gilbert]

Is Adam Benson trolling us now with his obsession of Bolton colors?!

I'm not sure how it's even gone live without having people go through and test it all first

 

[Littlemore Local]

I'd rather they stop messing around with the website and have someone front up to answer important questions instead.

It feels like this the third or fourth time the website has changed in the last year.

 

[West Oxon U’s]

It’s had to change along with most other EFL clubs as the i-follow has been binned. Many clubs have switched over in the past few days.

However it doesn’t look right to me with the top banner looking inadequate.

Swindon’s web site has a different layout?

I have complained to them several times (sometimes they wd come up yellow on black then revert) and when CW was here - accessibility features do not help with this. I don't think designers consider it at all tbh it's an accidental benefit when it doesn't occur.

 

[Northstandboy]

“Official iOS & Android Apps coming soon!”

 

[bdodwell]

I don't understand why it wasn't rigorously tested before go live. If it was, why launch without the ability to sell tickets. Beyond me.
