has anyone been on the sentinel sport site.what a load of shit. when you eventually get on there it's full of adverts and keeps jumping up and down ,so when you go to click on something that you want it jumps and you get something you don't want.when you do get the item that you want you scroll down and all you get is adverts and people trying to sell you shit.i have given up on this site because it frustrates me so much.

Its abysmal mate, and has been so for years. I'd give it a wide berth if I were you. It would frustrate the Dalai Lama.

Yeah, but if it loaded up before you got pissed off and closed down your browser, you may find yourself reading the moronic shit in the comments section by accident.
It's a blessing in disguise.

It's working fine for me on Google Chrome.
Just install Adblock and you'll stop all of the adverts from appearing (it's blocked 1.6 million pop-ups etc. since I've been using it)

Are you using the SOT app ?, if so pick Stoke City as one of your interests in the options to follow and it should work fine, I’m down in Cornwall and it works fine here. That is apart from updating news, I found out about Shaqiri about a hour ago but it’s still not on the SOT site ?

If you think the website is shit try buying the actual newspaper. Compare the 70p Sentinel to the MEN which is given away for free in Manchester city centre and the Sentinel looks what it is, a tired and past it rag. Sadly I can't see the Sentinel being around in the not too distant future.

Sadly I can't see the Sentinel being around in the not too distant future. I'm going back at least 25 years ago, but there was an old fella that sold the paper copy of the Sentinel around the Albion / bus station area of hanley, that would shout something incomprehensible every thirty seconds or so at the top of his voice. I believe what was said was " city final " as in the latest and last print of the day of the paper. Yet he made it sound like a bjork experimental piece....

Their medium is dying so they rely on really massive, garish adverts that make the site near usable in the hope that someone will accidentally press one of the links, regardless of how shit it makes their site look.

Depends on the platform... if you're on a PC or Mac it's in the chrome plugins store. If you are using chrome on anfroid your options are somewhat limited.

You get what you pay for and by and large folks are no longer willing to pay for print media because of on-line so you are hit with a tsunami of ads instead. Which is why I never get all the BBC bashing but that's another story.
Another endangered species and noble exception is of course the Oatcake Fanzine!

Adblock sold out to the advertisers and now allows certain adverts and tracking analytics through.
