Yeah, the mobile page is extremely basic. They could do a really nice job with a separate ap.

I’ve only just now joined the iphone world, so I’ve not actually tried making any trades with the mobile version yet.

Hi Eric, thanks for mentioning that. I didn’t know there was a mobile version of the site and I’ll definitely check it out. I still wish there was an iPhone app for it though because it’d be much easier than accessing through a mobile version of the site.

Cheers,

It is a shame that Football/Championship Manager isn’t in the US. I downloaded Soccer Manager but I am struggling to enjoy with all the names slightly changed.

FSC doesn’t have an iPhone app yet probably because they have a relationship with Verizon Wireless; look at all the Verizon Wireless advertising on FSC during commercial breaks or during Fox Football Fone-in. My guess is that either FSC is contractually prohibited in some way from making an iPhone app (and thus indirectly promoting AT&T Wireless) or they just don’t want to piss Verizon Wireless off. It’s a similar problem with other pro leagues that don’t have official iPhone apps, like NFL, NHL, and NASCAR; they all got into bed with Sprint or Verizon.

Like you gaffer I think the iPhone is the best
thing since sliced bread (and marmite..).One
App that would be handy would be a football stats database
with player profiles and records etc.Handy for
doing a quick stat check whilst watching a game
on tv or live at the ground.A “Live” league table
app would be fun too for a Saturday/Sunday morning!
Final idea would be football triva / quiz app which
would be ideal for use in the pub to stir lively debate
amongst fellow football friends.

Btw – is it possible to download podcasts from the
EPL app or can they just be streamed from there?

Excellent site-one of my favorite football destinations
on the web!

Yep I’ve heard several good things about the Arsenal iPhone app too. Even though I’m not an Arsenal fan, I’ll have to take a look at it.

Don’t quote me on this, but I believe it’s interesting that only Arsenal have put out an official app. It would be nice for other top clubs to look into an official application as well that could include player interviews, video clips such as goal highlights, etc., etc. (The sky’s the limit)

Also,

With 2010 now only a few weeks away, I’m sure we’ll start seeing World Cup apps popping up all over the app store. It would be nice for FIFA to create an official application for fans of the WC to follow all the news & analysis with the touch of a finger.
