LFEE Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Extras needed at SJP for a E-Racing promo if anyone reading this and wants to get along from 12ish for shooting anytime up until 6pm today as short of numbers. Isak Gordon and either Tripps or Pope for this section if that entices anyone! Check in at Milburn Reception. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many though but he was right in saying he needed to contribute more away from home.. Gordon's December gets a write-off from me. He, and many others, shouldn't have even been playing some of those games. No legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eight games that month, given how stretched the squad were, took a big bite out of our ambitions for this season. Lost to Forest, Luton, and Everton 0 points when we could have reasonably expected 7 points. Not to mention getting knocked out of Champions league in home reverse to Milan and heartbreak of injury time equaliser at Chelsea and subsequent loss on pens to miss out on a successive LC SF.

It devastated our season, and outside of playing a team of kids to give the first team a full 6 day rest, I don't think anything could've been done about it. December was a direct contributor to us not winning against the likes of Luton and Bournemouth at home in February, also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like newcastleunited.com has been owned continuously since the late 90's so it was probably already in the stable and made sense to use that regardless.

timeEd32 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 .com is one thing, but it's also better branding. tottenhamhotspur.com mancity.com manutd.com arsenal.com liverpoolfc.com realmadrid.com juventus.com It's a very small step, but indicative of the type of thinking we're doing.

El Prontonise Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) They'll keep nufc.co.uk and just do a 302 redirect to that new domain. Mind I hope they've done their SEO properly for it. Edited April 18 by El Prontonise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I would expect that the change is part of recommendations following a content audit of the site. Hopefully it was done by someone external or they have new staff because it was a pretty big thing to not have done, even in the time since the takeover, let alone the Ashley era.

The club's budget for this work was surprisingly low as of last Autumn. Make of that what you will. Bigger clubs are notoriously worky tickets for this though as they tend to expect heavily-discounted work due to their brand with the promise of case studies and company boxes etc. Edited April 18 by Gallowgate Toon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every conference I go to it's the same across countless institutions and nigh on every success story involves someone in the Web or marketing team finding a way to have the ear of someone high up.
