This is really fucking cool. Thumbs up.
Looks kinda nice, but not that useful I think.
When I'm looking at the next round of PL matches, I want to quickly identify the best 2-3 matches (this is roughly based on the highest average quality of the two teams; Everton vs Tottenham is more interesting than City vs Leicester for instance).
With this site / app, I can't easily find these matches.
If you set your team filters to the most interesting in your opinion then you will only see those games
This is really cool. Nice job.
Out of interest, did you seek permission to publish the fixtures?
I think this would have been a really cool web-app, but the pointlessly annoying scroll-jacking ruins it. Just my honest opinion.
Otherwise it's very very cool :)
It was a considered interaction and I wouldn't say it was pointless.
I'm generally against scroll jacking too, but in this case it was necessary to avoid awkwardly ending up between games resulting in a lot of confusion - slowing the scroll solved this.
Glad you like it though.
What did you consider? It looks pretty but not really handy or useful when all you really want is a table presentation smiley.
Right...
Hey no offense, but it's a lot easier to get an overview with http://www.livescores.com/soccer/england/ - yea? If the project was about learning new things, that's great! If it was to keep track of English Premier League, there are ways to improve it as people mention here. Keep it up.
If you're looking for a mobile solution with push notifications, FotMob is easily the best out there. I believe there's an Android version as well.
It has pretty much every league and competition.
No TV coverage, if I just want scores I can use the BBC Sport app, their text commentary is great.
The TV thing is the best feature for me, it was the best feature with the WC edition too. As times change and TV rights change with them, it begins to be a massive issue as to where you can watch certain matches.
This is very neat! Any aspirations on expanding with match info or will you keep it light?
Thank you! Yeah, the plan is to keep is reasonably light. Live scores and eventually scorers should give it some additional interest.
The TV Coverage was a late addition as we had considered leaving it out because of the international timezones. So for UK users, this is a bonus feature! :)
Yay!
Was saying when the WC one was out that a PL one would be even better with the TV coverage on it.
Great. Job.
This is really neat, I like that it has the TV coverage in it as well.
