Judith Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Well some of us have better things to do than spend all out time looking at this forum.Mind you, I nearly posted when I saw them, then the post moved off topic .....They are horrible - and the sooner they're gone the better!

AnOther Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Presumably some football nut in Archant (who own london24.com) thought that people living in France would share his sad passion for London football clubs.Hey, if you're listening NO WE DON'TMods, please please tell them to get rid of it, it's an offence to the eye [+o(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velcorin Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 OK, must read more carefully! In that case, if it is for London only clubs, why is there no ManUre badge?[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 It's an error (or I sincerely hope it is).I imagine whoever is responsible didn't realise that the thing would appear on this forum.I've posted a report in the admin section of the appropriate forum.

If you are going to make a change you test it before releasing it.[/quote]It looks, to me, like the ad revenue team got hold of the style sheets ...and have efficiently increased the number of ads on the forum pages: For even greater economy neither a designer or proof-reader was consulted. [Www]However, I do love a good conspiracy theory...Could it be a clever new marketing strategy, aimed at circumventing the mental ad filters we all develop..?The coloured banner will soon be no more noticable than the Google ad strip down the right-hand side of the page. Of course, while we get used to it, and because it spans some useful info on the page, we may accidentally click on it a few times. [6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
