    I had to look up Argyle's Yeovil disaster on other web-sites because I couldn't read the Official one.

    I had difficulty reading the text because two pages were transposed over each other and lower down the write-up the back ground colour was black the same colour as the words........even without that I found the lay-out and viewing of other stories very hard to achieve.

    Am I alone in finding it difficult to use or have you got a five year old to help you solve the problems.

    Problems reading the Truro match report on Argyle's official site.........two pages superimposed over each other lower down in the report.

    Nothing seems clearly laid out to check through to find articles to read.......I lose interest after awhile and look-up non Argyle web-sites to read their reports on PAFC.

    Still getting pages superimposed over each other..........can't be bothered to try to read it......just does my head in........the general layout is just too messy to keep my interest.

    Are you viewing it on a PC or a phone or similar device?

    The site is not working properly on my phone, but then, if you look at http://www.pafc.co.uk/mobile/, it's still in Latin - a placeholder page which isn't yet in operation. I did have that "page on top of page" effect with that but now it's just too dark to read.

    It is OK on my PC. Each page is superimposed over a background picture of sundry Argyle fans [did they ask for permission from each I wonder], which makes it a bit slow to load, but otherwise is completely legible.

    You might try deleting your old pafc.premiumtv bookmark for the Argyle site and setting up a new one for the new http://www.pafc.co.uk/ URL. They seem to have done something to transfer one to t'other and it may be best to go direct. Also try clearing your internet history & caches.

    If you could see it, you'd see Chris Webb reporting that progress has been made in divvi-ing up the PASB seats between the various supporters groups. Despite what I've had to say about him in the past, it seems a sensible proposal, although it does mean you have to be a "member" of something to get a vote. Hard to see how it could be otherwise. The election will be run independently by the Electoral Reform Society, which is the gold standard for fairness.

    I looked at it last night and thought it was crap. There again I'm a techno philistine.

    Essentially the same site with different graphics isn't it?

    I suppose there are only so many things you can say about a football club.... News, Fixtures, Results, Squad, Tickets...........

    Yes but if a site doesn't come across as basic to look at then I've had it techno wise. I'm one of those who gets instruction which starts "lift you middle pinky and......"

    Web designers don't do basic Sensible, rather like Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen doesn't do understated.

    I rest my case.
