What are some good websites for football?

What are some of the common things you expect from a football website but you actually don't find it on any of the current websites?

  • As readers all of us have expectations from a particular football website but they often lead to dissapointments as we never find them. What are few those which you don't find on any of the websites?

  • Answer:

    With most sites, I don't find anything different. It's the same formula - match preview, match review, player ratings - with different layouts. Facebook pages produce way more in terms of quality humour content and pictures. The quality of language and writing was always higher at Sky Sports, ESPNFC, Eurosport and the like and that has remained the case despite the efforts of many other sites (mostly Indian). Those top sites are also better at feature articles (in my opinion), but this is one area that new sites can beat them at. In general, there is a need for more creativity. And by that, I don't mean creative with the writing alone (satire articles and troll photos are becoming as commonplace as match reports). They have to get creative about the website itself - the very nature of the content and UI. How about a cool flash game or ten? A running webcomic? Online quizzes with goodies for winners? Interactive league tables? Nifty football-themed user experience? People have to get thinking!

I find http://football365.com interesting and entertaining. Mailbox;They publish mails from fans which are sometimes controversial, knee-jerk reactions, tactically interesting, anecdotal among other things. Most of the mails are fun to read. Their editorials like F365 says, Winners and Losers, 16 conclusions etc. are always insightful and humorous, and they backup their stories with data from http://WhoScored.com and OptaJoe. And Mediawatch is a satirical review of all football news published in the football dailies like DailyMail, Marca, Bild etc. Now I know this doesn't answer your question directly, but F365 generally contains what an average fan looks for.
