You may laugh but someone had spent a lot of time making that scarecrow.

Since Northcliffe media has acquired the G.E.T. this once proud newspaper has declined to a rag,would not be surprised if it does not go the same way as the Echo and is only published weekly.

Quoted from RichMariner
The pop-up ads are annoying, but it's the unfolding and collapsing ads that really do my head in. You begin reading and without touching anything the text you were reading has been pushed off the screen.

You scroll down and - nope, there it goes again.

Finally when you begin reading, the ad has played out and collapses, pulling all your text up and off the page.

So up you scroll...

MASSIVE AD

One sentence

MASSIVE AD

MASSIVE POP-UP AD

Two lines (if you're lucky)

MASSIVE AD

The rest of the article, with random words underlined as hyperlinks to obscure sites.


This!

No doubt as the G.E.T. monitors this site for it sports news ,it will be an uncomfortable read for someone.

is it getting worse? Went on there this morning and a massive ad took over the page then crashed my browser. Cant be bothered to go back on there. Does anyone complain to them?



I've complained several times but they stopped answering me in the end. When I used to go on my iPad went crazy afterwards. I had to delete my history and delete all web site data stored for it to go back to normal. They couldn't be bothered to answer me so I can't be bothered to go on the site or buy the paper now.

In the online age less people buy papers, and they need to make the shortfall somehow.

That said, I don't get them as I have AdBlocker.
