I like the layout & design, but there don't seem to be Bat profile pics, which I find a little annoying (unless I'm missing them somewhere) & its says: 'Prices start at £349.99' on the bat page when surely thats the top of the range price?

I just though that seemed to be worded oddly to me.

A big site poorly planned and executed, lacking most of the fundamentals I'd want for a site and surely a leading brand like GN can do better.

Link out to the taverners site isn't working for me. Looks like the domain is wrong as when you "buy online" it does work

Agree with mike, seems poorly planned

Having had a bit of a play throughout the day, it appears that the site didn't get a huge amount of proof reading as prices seem to be on the high side for starting and there are a fair few spelling mistakes. Minor things like the spelling of Preparation on the Bat repairs section and the americanisation of spelling on an English website, e.g. Rigor v Rigour. There are also discrepancies such as the Oblivion Senior bat only being available as a LB, apparently!

I'm not overly upset by the layout though!

A list of 100's of sponsored players, most ex or even long dead, some current ones have nicknames as real, date of birth as 13.3.2011 and even photo's of other players or using Slazenger kit instead of the right picture.

You're right about that list of players Mike, it's way too long for my liking. I am sure all some people need to persuade them to go with a brand is the England Captain and V-C using them, as well as some other top-end intl. and country players...
Looks like a work in progress to me, would be interested to see the finished finished state. :)

Maybe it isn't properly released, and we are the UAT for it...
