Oh dear - you leave the PC alone for a couple of days and look what happens.
Having spoken to Mr Meredith, I can understand his displeasure at the comment 'going from bad to worse'. It implies that the website started off being bad! I don't think that's the case at all. I was tempted to pull this whole thread, but won't - for a few days at least.
Having reflected on the thread, I think one or two points in the kick-off message are valid if taken at face value. There has been very little updating done on the site recently, but as Nick points out (and I fully understand the problem having the same afflictions myself with another 'volunteer website') he has plenty of other things occupying his time at the moment. Perhaps if the club had an employee maintaining the site - rather than a dedicated supporter - some of the criticisms would apply?
As for update pictures on the ground - I find myself agreeing with 'Inkwizitor' somewhat. The club undertook to keep the fans informed on the ground development (and even bought a digital camera to help - fair play) but this seems to have fallen by the wayside somewhat. Not living in Cov (or even Warks) I'm unable to comment on whether there is 'visible' work being done, so maybe more pictures of the same bit of chewed up grass and ex terracing wouldn't be a sensible use of resources (I was told however a couple of weeks ago by a club employee that they were waiting for a dry weather 'window' of four or five days to enable the top of the pitch to be stripped off ready for Piggy Powell to work his magic. As I say, I don't know if this has been done, so maybe nothing would show on a photo?. However, we've certainly had a lot more than five dry days now. Anybody know if it's been done yet?).
Anyway, I don't intend to 'edit' this thread in any way until at least after the weekend, and then we'll see what happens...
Finally, all the best to the team and the travelling support. We can't make it tomorrow - I simply can't afford the time and cost for two of us for such a long round trip at the moment (I need to save the coppers for the two season ticket renewals for next season!).
Go for it Cov!
(By the way, should anyone feel like it, you can text score updates to me if you like and I'll try to post them if I'm close to the PC. Number is 07905 872058). Cheers

OOps sorry. I didn't mean to cause offense with *that* comment, I just didnt put my brain in gear first. I really didnt mean to imply from bad to worse. Just that it had gone downhill recently due to a lack of updates. Now I know the reasons and that I caused offense very thoughtlessly I'd like to apologise to Nick and to the other board users. I really didn't mean it that way! Sorry!!!!!!! I'll think first next time.
