Can anyone post this article up for me on todays Irish News, I am too tight to pay the subscription fee!
Cheers!
No surprise that the GAA's content management real sports system didnt get one county in the top division
Offaly got into division 2 with the GAA system though...
and they probably saved themselves a few grand in the process
the Derry site doesn't deserve to be in Div 1!
if the site works, is updated and is simple to use then it serves its purpose
Fair point, however how they got in Division 2 showing latest fixtures for October 2006 and not offering 1 result for 2006 probably more shows the overall poor standard of gaa websites in the first place.

To be fair the derry site is probably as useful as any site in the county. Its updated around twice a day in the summer, and has loads of club, info. The results management system has been used brilliantly and was great last season to get full club league and championship results with a half hour of the game finishing!
That saying... it could do with a bit of a facelift.... but it serves its purpose still
The article looks like it was stolen from Setanta, which in turn looks like it was taken from here. :o
The key thing about a web site it that it must be up-dated. Antrim have come from Div 4 to Div 1 with their new site. Down used to be up-dated every day but ity's gone to the dogs this past year. Club sites are hard to keep up to date because of the time involved. You a team of people posting the results and match reports from their teams. You can't reply on the PRO to do it all.

Yes Fin they do credit Setanta for the article. Setanta didn't credit the gaa board however. Muppett looks at it on the Gaelic Life thread and he refers to the original thread on this board;
