| A
quick description of the site.
The
main page shows either squad pictures (where I have them),
animations (representing the teams) or white boxes. Either
click on the picture / box to see details for the team or select
the team from the list on the left hand side of the screen.
Letting your mouse hover over the picture or box will reveal the
name of the team to which it relates.
Once
a team has been selected, a second screen will be shown (the
'Welcome to the LTD . . . page'). This is the main
team page with links to a number of supporting pages. All
the information on here is customisable (the headline, the news
items etc). A database is used to store all the news, match
results and fixtures - this is used to show the previous match,
next fixture and the current league table for the team's division.
The following pages are accessible from here: |
|
|
|
Report:
|
A
report, if one is available, of the latest match played |
| Team
Results: |
A
table of results and upcoming fixtures for the team.
Includes scorers |
| League
Results: |
A
table of all matches played in the team's division. Includes
any cup matches for the age group |
| Results
Grid: |
A
grid showing all results played in the team's division.
Where a match report is available a link will be provided |
| League
Fixtures: |
A
table showing all matches yet to be played in the team's
division. Includes cup matches |
| Web
News: |
My
chance to tell you what I'm doing |
| News
History: |
All
news items for the team (not just the last 5) |
| Newsletters: |
Any
team newsletters. I need a couple of images but that's all |
| Team
Info: |
Specific
information relating to the team. This is customisable |
| Squad: |
Details
of the squad (if there is any) |
| Statistics: |
A
bit of fun - top scorers, position graph. Unlimited
potential |
|
|
| All
the pages listed above have a standard layout common to all the
teams. So, for instance if I add a new statistic (say, match
sequences) then all teams will benefit from this. The only
page that is an exception to this rule is the Team Info
page. This is team specific i.e. there is a different page
for each team. Teams not having their own page have a
default one. |
|
| Currently,
all changes are done by myself (in nearly all cases this involves
only updates to the database not to the site itself) but I am
hoping to open this up at a later date.
New
LTD teams can be added relatively simply. The only overhead
to me is to add the results of matches played (and upcoming
fixtures) to my own database then add the links to the first
page. Simple !
Other
links available on the left hand side are LEAGUES which shows the
participating teams in each of the supported team's
divisions. Maps are provided where appropriate.
Also,
there is an INFORMATION page showing relevant links, a tutorial on
how to understand the maps and a means of contacting me with
suggestions and comments (good or bad). |

NOTE:
If you want to bookmark the site then bookmark the main page not
any of the individual team pages. The team pages accept
parameters which may change in the future. |
