Same. Twitter is the same. Just look at the reaction of some fans to the news that Wigan and Warrington are going to play in LV.

Yep. Laughable. And it's the reason the game over here is struggling with mentality like that

The Leeds FB page comments sections is hilarious but not in a good way!

This site needs fixing though, its becoming unusable - its as bad as the syndicate News sites like LeedsLive YEP etc

Re: This site is crap : Thu Jul 11, 2024 12:17 pm  

Agreed the site most days is unusable.

Re: This site is crap : Thu Jul 11, 2024 12:45 pm  

Agree, the site is virtually unusable. You cannot quote other posts half the time, or when you do post, it doesn't look like it has posted, so click submit again, and end up with multiple posts. Even using Brave as the browser, which reduces the Ads, it doesn't prevent the issues mentioned above

Sorry that you are experiencing issues and we are aware of them and looking for solutions but you have to remember that the site is run and maintained by volunteers. The issues seem to be with our hosts on occasion and at times the site can be much faster.

Could we suggest that you try a couple of things;
1. Try a different browser if you can, Edge and Firefox (and I guess others) seem faster than Chrome.
2. While we are trying to solve the issues take an ad-free membership for a month or two (option in the banner at the top of the page).

We are in the process of a full site re-write but this takes a lot of resources, we are also looking at options to remove some adverts or at least speed up the loading. Without adverts or memberships then the site would not exist as our out of pocket expenses on hosting, software and insurance would mean that we would have to close the site down.

Please bear with us, we are working on improving the site.

Thanks for the feedback and appreciate the difficult circs. I am using edge and it's still poor. for the last week or so I cannot post without it crashing or duplicating. Ad free membership is a tad pricey at £5 a month... that's half way to a netflix subcription..

I use a VPN with a built in Netshield (Ads, trackers) and the site runs fine.
