Why not add a section with links to other useful football websites.

Good idea, at a minimum having a list of "PFRA members websites" would be great.

copy/pasting my own PFRA website idea, since it makes more sense to be posted here:

"an idea for the PFRA main page - since it's essentially never updated with anything other than the new Coffin Corner issue.

We should/could use it as a way to show what PFRA members are doing at their own sites. Promote everyone's work, dual purpose of showing the type of work that PFRA members do, as well as promoting and linking to PFRA members sites. Of course it would be an opt-in operation (only those that wanted their sites involved), but the way I envision it is something like this:

Something like that, it's content that updates the PFRA front page and it's free publicity for PFRA members doing work.

It could be updated daily, I would be willing to help notify whoever runs the front page of the site when a PFRA members site has a new article or is updated with new information, since I visit most of them daily or at least frequently enough."

Looking through the HOVG section of the website, I noticed that there is no link for the Class of 2012. However, three of the members are on the Class of 2013 page.

KNOWN ISSUE The Coffin Corner
Will Reaser be sent or be able to read issues 36-5 and 36-6 anytime soon?
Answer: ?
At the risk of "clutter," I might add that Issue 36-3 still had no link when last viewed.
And, is it futile to expect a timely mailing of each issue?
Every two months there seems to be another nonsense excuse but never a reasonable explanation.
-----
It good to see someone else mention "missing links" or the total lack thereof.
When this was pointed out earlier, some minions began to chirp and cry "foul."
But, for the record, Issue 36-3 STILL has no link and Issues 36-5 and 36-6 are not even posted.
The good news is that Reaser's missing issues are on the way to him. Congrats to whomever.
Additional KUDOS to the editorial staff for a far more timely production of the latest issue.

My issue was resolved.

The links for the three CC issues are up and working in the members only section, at least for me.

Not here. #36-3 still shows no link and 36-5 and 36-6 do not show at all.

Note: time of the capture was 8:33 but it is the same now. Any suggestions...

Refresh the page and you should see them.

"Refresh the page and you should see them."

Thanks, Ken.
Once again, you come to the rescue.
Pretty soon, there will be silver bullets all over the web site.
To the next person... you might want to offer that optional teminology also.
Thanx...
