Why would Leeds want a website with some bloke's name written all over it?

I presume by the fact that the new website is www.therhinos.co.uk that somebody at Headingley never thought to purchase leedsrhinos.co.uk. Unfortuately, it was registered in 2004 by a company in St Kitts and Nevis and I presume wanted too much money to sell it.

I wouldn't buy a web site name for more than its domain registration costs anyway, I get spoof emails at least once a month telling me that someone is trying to register my company name as a domain and that if I only send them some money they can stop it happening - bollax. If someone is sitting on Leedsrhinos.co.uk then let them sit on it and let them renew it every two years, its not like anyone else is going to use it is it ? It all revolves around vanity - truth is that the name almost doesn't matter, you could call the web site cjbckvbfbvfb.com and as long as you optimise it and market it properly then people will still find it in web searches and it will be a lot higher up the rankings than a domain that is dead and sitting on a default hosting page.

Anybody heard any interesting news on when the new full website will be up and running (including the new online shop)? Those of us a little remote from the club and desperately seeking to spend cash received in lieu of birthday presents are a little disappointed that the March deadline has come and gone with no real sign of activity......

Yes Gareth, I know you don't care.

new web page : Thu Apr 02, 2009 1:35 pm  

Due to the distance I live from Leeds, I only get to watch about 5 games a season. Due to this I can only buy things over the club shop web site. Going back to last year it said that the on line shop was going to reopen on 9th January. What has happened, is it ready yet. Whoever they have got to re-design the web site, they seem to be taking a very long time about it.

Quite. To be honest, when I am back in Leeds for a game, I am also invariably also catching up with a lot of people I haven't seen in a while, and not minded to spend part of the evening visiting the club shop.

My problem perhaps, but I am not unique, and missed revenue is the club's problem.
