david_rowe 40 Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) Sorry but that (post 329) is factually incorrect. Birmingham are not, and never have been, forced to use AP Media. Nobody is forced to use anyone, although naturally questions are asked if one particular website puts the entire BSPA network, whose server administrator is not AP Media, at risk - especially if other clubs raise concerns over the issue. I have a professional working relationship with Andy Povey - can't speak for the others you've quoted but the best way to work in this game is professionalism first, pals second. Even better if you can achieve both together! Edited November 27, 2013 by david_rowe 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even better if you can achieve both together! Doesn't the confusion over website hosting and design go back a few years to when all the (EL?) websites had the '.co' domain address introduced, by GoSpeed I thought?! At the same time there was a suggestion/proposal to also 'standardise' each website homepage (in order that the league sponsor - Sky - could have the same exposure on every homepage), and AP Media were proposed as the preferred agency to do that design work. Although there was a strong keenness for this to be introduced by the BSPA, it stopped short of being an instruction. As has been mentioned some 5 or 6 EL clubs have used AP in their design! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the facts about the Brum website, we both have differing thoughts on it so I'll shelve that topic going forward. PS: thanks for viewing my profile... Strangely we know each other off here, so it made me smile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
