Hi there
We have just launched a new version of our online football (soccer) news website, 360footballnews.com.
Check it out here... http://www.360footballnews.com
The site is built on the Reaction template framework. We plan to further edit the look and feel of the content areas and tidy up the various issues that we currently have over time.
We will probably eventually rely on pretty much the full suite of rocket extensions as features which will be rolled out over time.
I must say that I'm delighted that the Rocket team have sorted out the issues that I had previously had will Rokstories. It now works like a charm and has allowed us to pull rotator items directly from news categories without a problem.
We've had heaps of help from the Rocket mods and other contributors to the forums, especially in regards to the set up of Rokstories. Thank you all!
Please check out the site and let me know what you think...
Cheers

I think this looks awesome - really professionally designed.
One thing I really noticed it lacks for a football site is the ability to interact, leave comments, etc. You could also go the next stem and and add something like JomSocial or a BB so people can form tribes, and debate stories, teams etc.
Also something like a Tweetme function so people can twitter your articles would help it get exposure...

Thanks David
You're spot on I reckon. I'm just trying to think of the best way to go about this (roll out and how we want things to work).
Have just activated JComment, so that visitors can comment on our analytical articles. Will keep expanding on the interaction as we progress.
Thanks again mate

I agree with all the rest - great site!
For a social element, I have not found better than JomSocial - pretty easy to plug-in and gives you friends, walls, groups and more.
Again, great site!

Thanks again guys! You've said some pretty cool things here which is really nice.
I'll have a good look at joom social. I browsed it recently, but thought that it might be too much for a football site. However, i guess this couldn't exactly be a bad thing! - Football news and features, updated daily. 360footballnews.com.
