Im a footballing fan and i used to log on to this web site as much as possible. Thats slowly declined as i find the information vey rarely changes, we have had week matches, cups etc and still no entries for the mentioned. Its so boring waiting for updates, comments and results at approximately 7.30pm on a Sunday, it is now 20.06pm and still no entries.  Same applies for hoildays, if the web administrator is on holiday a suitable person who is trained in web development/design, should at least be capable of entering results without much difficulty. Sorry but im falling asleep now.

1. If you are offering to update the website and forum on a daily basis then please feel free to contact me.  Otherwise, please do not bitch and moan about something when you are not even willing to assist (if you even know how to update the website yourself that is).

2. Mentions of cups..... Gate Inn took the headline recently in the Coalville Trophy Centre Cup - because they won it... why would the Saints Reserves have the headlines? Also, Mention of the CFA Premier Cup between the Saints and Wymeswold were scheduled for entry tonight, but due to some very personal reasons making it difficult for me to even want to think about work OR football at the minute let alone actually go to work/football, I find myself wondering why I even bothered to begin with!  Other Cup Finals that the Saints are involved in are the J.D. Thomas Premier Cup (Please see the BIG enough banner on the homepage advertising it!) and the Everards League Cup (banner will be put onto the site as soon as I can)... How much more publicity would you like from me? -- Do you want me to stand in the street like a human billboard or something?

3. Things take time Bob -- I get the all the results etc between 6pm and 6:30pm on a Sunday (sorry if that's too late... please make a written complaint/suggestion if you feel there is a way (other than one I have already suggested! -- Which was for all Clubs on the forum to post match reports, enabling the League to gather the results etc much faster and that would then enable us to update the site much much quicker; This has, however, not exactly happened so that bins my bright idea)) --- Anyway, after receiving the results etc, I key away like mad to ensure the results and tables are updated as soon as possible -- And I apologise right now for being so slow; It's what you get when you only type with 8 fingers instead of all 10 I suppose!!  If you can type with 9 or 10 fingers then feel free to offer your services Bob to ensure the results etc are updated much faster for the benefit of all you hard-core fans.

4. Holidays -- You can only refer to the 3 weeks I was on in January, and I am not on holiday again until the coming January.  Plus I have got someone in place to be the "Website Assistant" to do the data entry etc for next season, so no worries there eh?  I apologise for not ensuring the website was updated regularly enough for you whilst I was away in January, however, I don't know whether you knew or not, but I ended up updating the website from the USA (ON MY HOLIDAY!) for people such as yourself -- nice to know it was appreciated Exclamation

Final Note:
I am pleased that I have found someone to take over the website for next season (as I am sure you are pleased too), because if there wasn't someone willing to take over the data entry aspect of the website/forum, I do not mind making it known that the website would probably have been scrubbed as I am not willing to take the abuse or sarcasm from anyone who doesn't even know what the VOLUNTEERS' circumstances are! angryfire angryfire But seeing as you have already fallen asleep, what worries have I got for tonight?!

If anyone wants to donate a minimum of 20 hours per week to update the website (that's the average amount of time I spend on it, even typing with 8 fingers -- So someone who types slower than me would have to obviously donate many many more hours free time) and take this absurd sarcasm then please feel free to let me know.... be careful though, I may end up committing the person rather than seriously considering taking them up on their offer Exclamation 'Cos they'd have to be that mad to even think about it.

You've had your little rant/bitch... I've had mine.  Sorry to see you go Bob, but I cannot afford to risk certain things regarding my personal circumstances for anyone -- never mind anyone, anything (not even my full-time job takes precedence on this one so I'm sure you can appreciate that my website duties are a little low on the list of priorities!)... Again, thanks for your comments and I look forward to seeing you in the Oak in the near future to tell you what I really think of this sarcastic comment.

I am not going to get involved in a bitching contest on the forum Bob, so if you want to reply please feel free to PM me or call me on 01509 213756 or 07837 090778.  If you reply to this thread (your choice of course), I will not guarantee a response to yours.

Steve.

All of the league officers have full-time jobs, some including myself have two jobs. We don't get paid for our league responsibilities, but still do the job.
As a RefSec I spend about 20-25 hours a week ensuring referees are appointed to games and I know for a fact that Steve does a hell of a lot more for the league than any other person, and what thanks does he get? A small minded idiot who doesn't contribute much, if anything apart from bitching.
Would those two with negative comments wish to volunteer their services? Probably not! So until you do, shut up or put up!

This forum was not created for people to simply bitch and moan, nor was it created build some sort appreciation society.

Thanks to all those that understand my circumstances and can afford a little of their patience. To the rest, I apologise for not keeping the site 100% accurate at all times but that won't be the case next season ('cos I won't be doing it).
