The fact it opens a new page every time you hit a button is a mystery

Not at all, it's the target attribute of the link reference and easily sorted.

I can't find the official site fixtures either despite typing in very carefully doubleudoubleudoubleudotaltrinchamfcdotcodotukbackslashfirstteambackslashfixtures.....laidlar out!

If you go to the news page there is a link to fixtures on the side:

http://www.altrinchamfc.co.uk/news.htm

If you cant find it at the top.

The site is being worked on now as John has been offered some help with this by someone who knows about mobile site optimisation.

Thats where you're going wrong Jezza, it's forwardslash, not backslash.

I note John has indeed fixed the links opening in a new window issue. I once again remove my hat to this legend.

So the poll shows a slight preference for the old site. I thought it would have won by a bigger margin.

As manager of a team that designs and builds web applications, I know full well that you cannot hope to please all of the people all of the time.

One of the biggest mistakes we made in recent times, was to hold a steering committee including some 30 members of the business community.  Guaranteed, you will never get a nailed down set of requirements, or signoff, with that number of stakeholders.

In these cases, and with the case of corporate websites, you often just need to ensure the product/brand owner is happy, and work on sensible end user feedback as a series of enhancement releases.  And when the developer is doing it for free and in his own time, people should be grateful for what they get!

So speaking as someone who knows about these things do you prefer old or new?

I know that, to move from old to new, you sometimes need to completely redesign and go through several iterations #NonCommital
