Used to subscribe to the old Saints Player. Useful when traveling and watching highlights - there were very few full 90 matches to catch up on so,I used it less and less.

Cant seem to access new site on my phone

Anyway,more importantly, can we see any live matches on the new site & what is the subscription?

Subscription is just an E-mail address no idea about live matches.

Subscription is for match highlights and full re-runs and obviously data farming.

I believe the PL2 matches will all be shown live.

Commentary is also free and requires a subscription.

Much better than the last one, that was awful.

Free commentary will be very useful for those of us outside of the solent area

Interesting article today

http://www.thedrum.com/news/2016/10/14/southampton-fc-reveals-new-site-intended-redefine-how-football-clubs-engage-with?

How’s everyone getting on with the new site, a month down the line ?

Personally I really like it. It’s got a modern look and it’s easy to browse.

So far I’ve only visited it for the odd article or check a fixture date, so can only really comment on it’s aesthetics.

Does it’s ‘multi platform functionality’ match the all the hype ?

I like it but the old one was shite.

However, Optimus Trousers now struggles to read some of the content.

I also went looking for U23 team stuff a few weeks ago and got in some sort of first-team-only loop.

Don’t know if the content wasn’t there yet or if the navigation (or I) was broken.

It was a bit of a faff trying to get live commentary when it first went live but that was probably me & my inability to use IT based internet thingies.

Best thing is being able to get commentary outside of the Radio Solent area - used to be blocked on BBC website - so had to pay for the old Saints Player.

To be honest I only use it for the match build up or for the full match when games are not on TV / no decent streams - but it’s saving a few quid each month which is good.

Is anyone else unable to access the articles? When I click on the captioned boxes all it seems to do is enlarge it to full screen, with the only links being share options or return to the previous menu.

I can’t even be arsed to read the official emails they send so I rarely visit the website.

Sorry if I’m not engaging like a proper customer, but watching games, doing a bit on social media and checking forums is enough for me to know what’s going on, I don’t want their frigging life stories.

Is that “frigging life-stories” or “frigging-life stories”? If they’ve got articles about the masterbatory habits of first-teamers then I reckon I might be interested… for comparison like.

Nice story there RB, I’ll just put you down as a ‘don’t know’.

more of a ‘don’t care’
