Lets rank them in divisions. Anything with old news on it cannot be division 1.
A county with a good website and e-communication structure surely shows progressing with the times and a modern approach to the way they go about their business. I know with my own club we send out emails on a weekly basic in relation to training, while we have an intra-net for talking to one another.
I bring this up as I raised it with my own County Board and PRO, who does a good job in relation to print media, about 4 years ago and even offered to contribute financially, yet nothing has been done about it.
The Westmeath site is http://westmeath.gaa.ie/frame.htm and I would give it 1.
Tyrone one was launched recently. It is modern with all the latest flash etc. There hasn;t been much to write about recently. Has a cracking map of where all the clubs are situated. Puts an end to the excuse that we couldn't find the pitch.
www.tyronegaa.ie
Here's a link to the map of clubs;
http://www.tyronegaa.ie/clubLocator.jsp
Kerry's GAA Website was excellent but it is down since the All Ireland.....overloaded with the weight of 35 All Irelands no doubt ;)
Hopefully it will be back soon.
QuoteI would give it 1
How in God's name does it even merit 1? :o
It has a domain.
Maroon
Those domains were coralled by the Leinster council about 6 years ago. Nothing to do with anyone in Westmeath. The Longford website got the next generation address from the Leinster council:
http://www.longfordgaa.ie/
So - I'd scale back your score there a tad.
Aye True, after looking around Westmeath have to be ranked 32 out of 32.
Bloody hell, that's shocking for Westmeath.
Is there at least a decent unofficial site?
Offaly's is middle of the road, uses the generic GAA system that I was asking about in the other topic.
The Antrim Website has to be up there with the best, leagues tables are updated straight away as clubs are obligated to text in results to a hot line were the scores and results are tallied up on the tables. Fixtures are in every Tuesday and (and changed on the Wednesday :-\) updates on county teams and panels, national news, updated photo gallery. A forum were the admin team answer your questions with some sarcasm, if they dislike your tone. But they clear up a lot of queries and dispel some of the rumours that go about. http://antrim.gaa.ie/
Roscommons official site is just superb...*cough* www.gaaroscommon.ie ::) It looks like a FAS web design training course seriously gone wrong.....
Thank God the fans set up their own ones which actually are superb if i do say so. www.stolensheep.proboards59.com and www.sheepstealers.com
the less said about the official armagh website the better. brutal :(
so looking at this so far
it seems the crapper you are , the better your website?
:o
;)
So what would people like to see then on their official websites? I'll start the ball rolling...
On the club side, I'd like to be able to check the results on my mobile phone and see the updated table the night the games are played.
On the county side, general reports on how training and challenge matches are going. I know most teams want to keep a lid on these things but anything better than "your man is flying in training" down the local isn't too much to ask.
London's website was shut down due to abuse. I suppose if the people being abused did their jobs right they wouldn't get abused. But it was easier just to shut the site down. The site can still be accessed , just hasn't been up-dated in months. The good old discussion forum proved to be the end of the London website.
I think you'll find Derrys up there with the best.
http://derry.gaa.ie/
The Tyrone one is I think a bit much, all that bloody flash on it takes ages to download and I had to download the latest version to watch it at all. I like the Donegal one, simple but updated well, yer man the PRO won the communications award from the Ulster Sportswriters for it. The GAA management Websites are pretty poor, lack of imagination when designing them did for them, the fixtures and results is just one big page, you cant find anything on it
Quoteit seems the crapper you are , the better your website?
Must be true as Kildare have an excellent one, which is only get better I might add.
http://kildare.gaa.ie/
When I was pricing up all the championships I obviously used a lot of these. Generally how I would categorise them is....
(1) Top Class - Informative and well presented
Leitrim
Antrim
Derry
Kerry (up until it went offline after the All Ireland)
Longford
Meath
Dublin
(2) Not bad - generally had the information, but could be better
Mayo
Down
Offaly
Donegal
Clare
Tipperary
Limerick
Louth
(3) Not great. Hit and miss, looks poor.
Sligo
London
Fermanagh
Cavan
Monaghan
Waterford
Wexford
(4) Awful or non-existent
Cork
Kilkenny
Armagh
Westmeath
Carlow
Wicklow
Galway
Roscommon
New York
Tyrone and Laois not active during the summer, unfair to judge. Kildare was a strange one. Looks great, no useful information whatsoever. Not once did they have accurate fixtures posted up by Friday for the weekend.
Having said all that, there were some good unofficial ones that took up the slack for the weaker counties (website-wise). KKCats, Sheepstealers, Rebel GAA and orchardcounty all told me everything I needed to know.

as if this applied to clubs
the clocks would obv be going for their 10th senior championship in a row judging their website
(its not that bad, just glaring and too bright)
Good to see the standard has risen over the last while generally.
Hill16 is great for club info and results which is what you want really, the design is a little bit dated looking but does the job.
Westmeath should be ashamed of themselves, that's pathetic.

hill 16 is not nearly as good as it shoul dbe from a fixtures , result and league tables perspective
imo and from experience this year
The Armagh one is not as bad as it used to be. Maybe 3rd division.
Lone Shark what odds will you offer that an article on county websites, much like this thread, appears in a national newspaper in the next month?
Cavan GAA one hasnt been updated since the Down Game in the championship....
Its the worst one in the country for sure....
Absolutely pathetic.

I'd have no complaints to be honest. You could trust the throw in times, and that's more than could be said for a lot of them.
I didn't use the Cavan one too much to be fair, ye're championship was fairly well advance by September this year.
The Westmeath one is a class apart in fairness. If I didn't know someone working for the Westmeath Indo I would have been fecked.

its the info from the county board that irks me
they have the fixtures, they have results sent to them
they dont have these collated back in Co board HQ therefore how can they send on these let alone expect someone to update them in their own time...
I ended up fixing matches and suggesting pitches myself a couple of months ago.
I know its a thankless task, but jeez dont sit there - ask for help - there are plenty of clubs/GAA people who would give a hand if needed.
It could be better but as far as i know yerman does it in his own time, it's a lot better then most.
I agree with the gripe about the Tyrone site having too much flash - its Flash for Flash's sake. They only thing that using flash enhances there is the club location map.
Aside from that, its not a bad site, it's "launched" at a quiet time of the year. However going into 2007 for reports it'll need more to have at least a paragraph or two rather than just give a result.
in fairness, at least the roscommon website is updated with results and fixtures
unlike some other much flashier websites
its only updated every week or two though most of the time its more. Is very biased towards hurling. not really worth goin on, hoganstand is way better
Personally I despise Hoganstand (particularly the messageboard)
I think the majority of GAA web designers are still in the back ages in terms of design, astethic qualities ect.
And to the person who had the gripe about Tyrone's site because the use of flash, and it slowing the speed down - get a decent broadband connection.
I haven't had a look at too many of the other county websites but they mustn't be great if Mayo is topping Div 2.
The site looks well on the main page and the club results are usually up to date more or less but the last report from a county game is the League game against Cork. There is no list of honours for the county championship/league and no archived results for either club or county. I'm presuming there's even less on the hurling side of the board!! I don't even think that there's a forum on it.
I have to say the official Kerry site is excellent, you can get results going way back and the official forum was v good.
The unofficial mayo forum is pretty good though, mayofans.com.

Think he's talking about catweazle Fionntamhnach but at least you got the opportunity to showboat
Forgot about catweazle!
I'm fortunate enough to have such a fast connection, many others are still on dial-up usually because broadband isn't a choice. This still happens in places in the north and is still common in rural areas in the south. By consequence I still think any website based for an Irish audience shouldn't concentrate solely for visitors with broadband connections unless they're aiming for an audience who will almost certainly all have it.
jeez - you poor impoverished northerners !
:D

So how does the club results circus actually work?
I had a gripe with one set of inaccurate club results and was told that the results were taken from hoganstand. Where do hoganstand get the data? If they depend on rte's aertel service, no wonder things are screwed up fairly regularly.
Mind you, several years ago I had the opportunity to attend a Kerry County Board meeting that was trying to get results from lower division games from weeks and months prior. Once I established a lot of our opponents had no delegate at the meeting, our win ratio improved a lot. Ended up in third place out of 12 teams, when eighth was correct. Made no difference for promotion or relegation, but that was the way it worked back then.
And I was sitting back with my pipe laughing at Elias's criticism of poor Fionntamhnach. No broadband connection out here Elias, one needs to be slap bang in the city to get it. Flash at this stage is a no no in my opinion, search engines will not index it, takes a while to download for the guys without broadband (me) and the older machines have to go and download a flash player.
I dont think the average GAA supporter is concerned at their county board web site having lightning flashing around their stadium and the like, just a reliable and regular news service, up to date fixtures and results and current contact information.
So no while the Tyrone site is visually impressive, leave the flash movies to the boy racer car web sites, cutting edge design companies. No need for it in a GAA county board web site, I can see yer average 50 year old Club man going into check a news story and having to realise you have to click on one of those flashing news stories up in the corner. Even a click here for more might help them
The site is designed for a technology loving GAA supporter, with little consideration for its real target market.

This is a common enough mistake made by web designers, I despair sometimes when I'm looking for info out on the web and come across one of these sites with the fancy flash intro page and bits moving around all over the shop.
It's a substance versus style issue. There's enough tools out there now to make putting a decent enough looking website together relatively easy. The issue is gathering content for the most part.
In my opinion any county PRO who hasn't taken charge of their website isn't doing their job properly and should be taken to task for it. A once a week update isn't too much to ask for surely? They should have stuff like fixture lists and results in some format anyway, getting them online should be a simple step with a proper system in place.

You can give me a boot up the hole.
www.LeitrimGAA.ie (http://www.leitrimgaa.ie) should still be at the top of the premier league as it's constantly updated with video highlights, pictures highlights 20,000 images !!!, news items and all fixtures and results at the touch of a button.
I live in Dublin and rely on it a lot to keep me in the picture midweek - My number 1 GAA site !!!
Sligogaa.ie unreal at updating, club results all summer long updated that night. Fair amount of pictures aswell.
Having used both, I would both top 4 premier league ;)with maybe Leitrim shading due to showing video highlights of the club championship. .
Antrim site is very good.
The admin on it has a stinking attitude though.
I like the sound of the club championship videos - sounds great.
Sportsmanager with the managing of results has made all these sites so much better.(If that;s what you call the results service..)
Mayo's has to be one of the worst. It could do with having more info on it than just club fixtures.
Kerry site is excellent, do a very good job

That Sportsmanager system is only as good as the people implementing it, Monaghans use of it has been useless (a bit like the whole site in general) http://www.sportsmanager.ie/t7.php?userid=23&leaguetable=1&report=1&reporttype=mixresults&compid=10200&countyid=23&club_id=&sportid=1 (http://www.sportsmanager.ie/t7.php?userid=23&leaguetable=1&report=1&reporttype=mixresults&compid=10200&countyid=23&club_id=&sportid=1)
This is their current table for the Senior League, the league finished a week ago with all teams playing 18 games and then two semi finals and a final.
Site address for anyone who cares to look http://www.monaghan.gaa.ie/ (http://www.monaghan.gaa.ie/)
The cavan one is pure muck... can't stand when they have a new news topic or event it gets included in the menu bar at the side.....
As well as that I hate the way the amadán who updates it, feels the need to annouce the fact that it is him who updates it (personally I would be trying to distance my name from it but...) in bold letters centre page on the home page...
Did I hear they are in the process of getting a new one - so in true committee fashion it will be online in no time ::) ::)

The original league table was drawn up in 2006, and I agree that the Sligo site should now be promoted to the top division. They seem to have put in a lot of work improving the appearance and the supply of info.
Anyone out there available to rate the sites as they stand now at the end of 2009 ? (kind of league table status at the end of this decade)
It would be interesting to see who is taking their website seriously ........
Any takers ?
I came across the Leitrim one a while ago myself, I have to say that it is excellent, a job well done.
I totally concur with the comments on the sportstracker. Louth went through a period where it was not being used and the site was a disaster as a result. I have to say, that for the last yeat though it has been excellent and I can pretty much rely on it, only problem being refixtures and the problems here are normally caused by the clubs themselves.
Be it club or county, there is no point having any website live on the web if you are not going to keep it updated. Simmonstown in Meath were nominated for best website in Leinster back in February and shortly afterwards they stopped updating it!! Last article is back in March!!
Leitrim one is great (although it is not the best looking of sites) but it is a complete one man show, allegedly the guy is just on it 24/7 what will happen after the PRO steps down i dont know, is it too technical for someone else to update.
I am still a big fan of Antrims they do a great job up there and Downs is good too, results are up straight after the match is over, the pros of a lot of Down clubs are technically updating it for them. This should be the case as the County PRO has a huge workload as it is
Think that there is a group of people feeding the Leitrim site.... Photographer, Video guy, Scor reporter, Ladies, handball hurling (both occasionally) - PRO appears to do an awful lot but it has and would need many inputs as site is so massive in size. No flash movey bits going off in 20 directions but just simple solid content and pretty much everything thought off - model site.
The Antrim site is great for content and John Friel and Martin McCarry are two of the best gaa website designers in the 32. Unfortunately the Admin on the Antrim site is an awful obnoxious bollox who gets on like a nightclub bouncer. The posts either toe Papa Doc's party line or they get heavily edited with a sarky comment attached.
Mayo county board site is very poor. There is a site that covers Mayo football, has a great comment section and a brilliant archive going back to 1950. Puts the County Board to shame...not that they give a damn anyway, The site is called mayogaablog.com and its edited and ran by a man with a name known as Willie Joe no less. Visit it if you are a Mayo man, by the way he has a link to another witty guy called An Spalpin on that site, worth a visit as well. :L

fairly comprehensive there joe, some websites are still woeful, that wicklow one looks very impressive though.
Aye I've to keep track of all the Club Championships so needed to get a comprehensive list of where to get results. Waterford is pretty snazzy too.

Cavan's would have to be one of the worst going...
Anyone still using the old Realsports system. i.e
Carlow
Cavan
Fermanagh
Louth
Monaghan
Offaly
Tipperary
look terrible.
That being said, the worst in my opinion is my home county Mayo. The PRO doesn't give a shit about it and won't let anyone else touch it.
