That site is turning in to the equivalent of the Meaning Evil. Almost impossible to access or navigate.

Sorry Legion. What do you suggest I do about it?

Get whoever the host is to sort it out. All I ever get is Origin Error or a site where when I scroll down to read the content it does not render properly. Sorry, Dave. It is not a dig at you at all.

Continually get the Close and Accept banner for Privacy and Cookies no matter how many times I click on Close and Accept.

I have been trying for a month to get the host to sort it. They say it isn't their problem.

I tried in Incognito and I could access it but the site was clunky as hell for me.

I'll tell them that you told me that it's their problem. I'm sure that'll work. Thanks.

Get off your high horse. It is their problem. They are the ones hosting the site that does not render properly or accept the GDPR protocols.

I think that's sorted now.

I'm not on my high horse. I'm explaining to you that if they say it's not their problem - and I don't think it is -  there really isn't much I can do about it.

Open link in Incognito Mode and it works.

Migrate to a different host if you can.

It's not the host that's causing the problem.

Somehow, somewhere, some browsers are pointing to an https site that doesn't exist, hence the redirection problem. If I can find a code to fix it, and I can do it without ruining the entire site, I will.

These are strange times when Lee and DW are at loggerheads.  It's s only technology lads.  The piece has been written, club history has been served.

My Dad was a voracious reader of Westerns.  Riders of the Purple Sage stuff.  If you asked him which were his favourites he would reply "the ones I have not read"    How I feel about Heroes and Villains.
