Doesn't go to Carlisle when I click Exeter, it goes to Exeter.

Far away across the field
Try clicking on Exeter City, that's the problem.

Yep, you're right, goes to Carlisle.

I blame Tisdale.

Backing Gary Caldwell, thanks Matt and good luck.
Seems pretty accurate, only works properly away from Exeter :D

The links are all over the shop.

I have checked a few and it seems that the links to cities are OK, and most of the links to clubs take you to a different club entirely. If I were the website developer, I would be embarrassed to put this site in the public domain in that condition.

Having said that, the content shows promise. So persevere.

Here to be constructive......

Surely this is a joke isn't it? I haven't found a single club link that goes to the correct club! The idea is okay but the execution is laughable.

You didn't see my previous replies.

It would appear the rest of the word has sussed the City name is dominant as it is underlined. The club names are subsidiary. The pages are a package,
i.e. City and Football Club. We could have left the club names out but would have caused problems, particularly with the location of the London clubs.

However, will raise this with the designer as I can see this is a possible problem.

Anyway, thanks for all the constructive amendments. Will check out our original sources and alter.

More feedback appreciated.

Comfortably mid-table

Leaving the names out has never been suggested or would be necessary. Having football club names on a page labeled 'Cities and Clubs' and allowing the club names to trigger an incorrect link does cause problems.

Good luck with the site, genuinely.

By its nature it will need constant updating and attention to detail to remain relevant.

The rest of the world obviously didn't spend very long checking anything then. Either have hyperlinks in the club names that lead to a dedicated page for that club or get rid of them and only allow clicking on the area title because as a site visitor, i don't know there's a supposed to be a "procedure"

Club info wise, our founding date has recently been changed from 1904 to 1901.

I too wish you good luck with this. Such sites are always handy for planning away visits.
