    I just hate change so can't give a valid assessment.

    Ah there we go, someone with actual technical know-how enforces my opinion. This really isn't a good website. Then again, it never has been.

    I don't really give a toss. In my opinion, aesthetically an improvement on the last site and functionality is about the same. Thus, I don't really care about anything technical. If it works, it's good enough, as far as I'm concerned.

    It works well enough for me - click on a link to a news article, it opens. Certainly not enough for me to get upset over, or even care slightly.

    I agree it doesn't look great, but "no" knowledge is a silly thing to say. Search pretty much anything Saints related and it is top 5 of google, i think they might have a little bit of knowledge.

    The site is a million times better than the old format. Good to see decent reviews on the scholars too.

    Don't really care to be honest! As long as I can access Saintsplayer and articles, then I'm fine.

    When it was announced, I thought we'd be getting our own site...it's still the same as the rest of the football league :(

    Viewing it on an old browser it is truly terrible. Viewing it on a later version it is just terrible. Took me 5 minutes to find out the latest news. At least with the old version I could easily work out which news articles were for Saints Player and which were text. So overall a big thumbs down from me.

    Liked the old layout where you could see the latest news straightaway. Bit clunky.

    To be fair a lot of commercial websites use aspx - personally I prefer php, but if you've outsourced your site-building (& hosting?) to an MS shop aspx is to be expected. Just be thankful that they haven't used silverlight anywher I've noticed.
    Also, the high-res pictures are kind of nice on my 22inch widescreen monitor, so I thank the club for catering to my needs, but yeah, they're pointless for most other people.

    But yeah, the layout sucks; pretty sure not WAI compatable either (though better than the last site) I wonder how accessable it actually is. In their favour, very few people get layout right, and it's certainly not the worst I've seen.

    It's better than the one before, not saying much though.

    Looks okay, but far too heavy. Obviously the old Football League link has been severed as now my Saints iPhone ap won't load news...and new website almost impossible to view on my phone :-(

    I'm not keen on it myself - seems very complicated and too much on it

    Sorry to be negative, but I HATE IT!
    Doesn't even work aesthetically for me. Looks like a child's first attempt.
    What's with the white text on black background. Couldn't bring myself to read any content.
