New Fulham Website?

I don't think it is a new website, but just the reopening to the Fulham FC TV. Strange not to have that up and running so soon to the start of the season....then again, strange not to have the Kits on the backs of the fans, for the start of the season too....

 

I remember last season FulhamTV was launched either the day before or the day of the first game and came without much warning if any at all.

 

Yeah... rollouts are a bitch!

And considering the past performances of the Fulham construction crews.... let's say it's a lesson: "Good intentions amount to diddly-squat"!

 

I tried to access Fulham TV this morning and got an "access forbidden" message. So perhaps they are updating it as wek speak...er...type

 

Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

I was able to log in a couple of hours ago; the site is now down for me as well.

 

RE: Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

I can't get a link to Fulham TV to work. I tried for yesterday's game and got nothing and now I'm hoping to get it before Wednesday's match. Anyone had any luck with this?

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

No, that's the point. I attempted to register but I can't even get to a registration page. Clicking the "sign up for Fulham TV" link just re-routes me to the main page.

 

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

OK I got it to work. It's an issue with their busted links from their news releases. If you go to Bolton Commentary, then click the link at the bottom of the article that says "See subscription packages" or whatever, it redirects you, but if you go to the Fulham TV link at the top it works.

At least I'm not going insane.

Now I just need to decide if that $75 is better spent elsewhere... or not spent at all. I think some research is in order. If I can freeload off of the opposition's commentary like with Man U for the games that aren't on FSC I don't think I can rationalize the $75... at least until the shock of my most recent credit card bill wears off.

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

Yes $75.00 to listen to a match is a steep price to pay and FFC doesn't even archvie it so I could listen to Wednesday match after I get home from work..... Really, Really dumb.... My old high school does all of it's football and basketball games via the web, and archives them so you can listen to them anytime. I belive if a High School could do it a proffessional team could......

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

Yeah if they're already streaming the audio anyway it would take about 2 minutes to create an "archives" page and make the audio available on demand. I'm shocked they don't do that already.

Looks like I'll save my money and follow the games on ESPN Gamecast that aren't on FSC.

Gamecast is an awfully painful way to "watch" a soccer game though... We'll see if I cave come Wednesday afternoon.

Even an Old Guy could figure that one out. :wink:

Technologically and marketing wise, I have a bit of a feeling that the European's (or at least the English) are not quite up to where us Yanks are. You should see how some of these luddites pine away on the new FFC messageboard for the old one dimesional offering. On second thought, don't. It's pathetic. Functionally, it's not much different than what is here. And I really enjoy what is here. (But I am always open to ideas.)

 

Re: RE: New Fulham Website?

Years ago they did archive the Audio but they found that no one used it since after a day, you could sit and watch the highlights via FulhamTV.

Although, I believe they should offer a month subscription like they did last year but I think its an issue with the provider and not Fulham.

I still say listening to Gentleman Jim is worth the price of admission.
