from WebPagesThatSuck.com (www.webpagesthatsuck.com) comes Crewe Hall (http:), which wins the award for most excessive use of flash and dead links in a supporting role.

[B]That site was constructed by Stacey Jones, using a laptop, running round the field during a game! Give Butch a break....... Warriors propaganda (humph) wash your mouth out with soapy water, Peter!!!!![B]

80504 2002-09-18 03:05:00 come on... it's great marketing..

Had you all looking, and checking the details, and complaining, and saying "mad butcher" to each other.

it's so "bad" that we tell each other about it....
that would be bad for biz, now wouldn't it?

On the otherhand, if that was the site for a worthwhile sort of product, it would scare people away in droves!

I agree Chris....... I enjoy looking at sites like this. The crazier the better. Actually, there have been some good home made movies about the Warriors in past weeks. The Butch has defineately got enthusiasm. Who cares if his site is poorly constructed. Its a fans site and I don't see anyone else stepping up to do one better.

The sausages and chops look yummy too!

80507 2002-09-18 05:31:00 Well, It's certainly "Out-There" and it freaked me out having ablack window appear Full Screen!
DAP Stopped the sound from downloading at the start, and once I'd closed the first two windows, the rest of the site's not that bad at all.
Good on him for supporting the Warriors, but maybe he has just a little bit too much support. Ah well, he's the Mad Butcher, what do ya expect? :P

80508 2002-09-18 06:10:00 On the website there was a "contact us" option for comments about the website ....... so I did, and sent them this thread's URL.

Hopefully they will take notice.

80509 2002-09-18 08:02:00 yep Jen,

notice will be taken, and attempts to make it worse will be made, in order to attract further attention!

80510 2002-09-18 08:26:00 Oh well, its a better job than I could have done..... yet to learn HTML.

I think the site has quite a following....... Bit unkind of you to make a comment like that Chris. Whoever does the site obviously does it as a hobby and for the love of the Warriors.
