It is ramping up its digital presence with a major overhaul of its website. Revolution 05/12/2001 So how much would we be prepared to pay for the abomination that passes as an official NUFC site? Or even if it got its act together? Quite. Are there any good official sites out there?

I'd be quite happy to pay if the webcast was guaranteed crystal- clear, if the goals were ready for download a few hours after the game, and tickets could be bought immediately for away games. To answer your Q I have, until now, never ever seen a site that I would pay to visit.

Sunderlands is £3 a month i believe.

Why not have a whipround and get one between you?

Impressive. Can't sell their season tickets, but they can persuade the gullible to part with £3 a month to see monkey pics. Good marketing that.

Can't sell their season tickets?

You make is soound like no-one goes to see Sunderland.

And that is quite obviously not true.
