Thinking of creating a application for the new season

[Dule]

Hey guys, I've come up with the wackey idea of creating a application that will track not only the performances of our players over the course of next season, but also there stats, which team lineup has had the best results and so on and so on.

 

Now this is going to be a huge amount of work, that i am willing to do, however i will need a number of elements that people here might be interested in doing with me.

 

Firstly i would need to devise a layout from the highest level possible, Widgets that people can possibly suggest in this thread such As:

 

-- Match Day

-- -- Voting for Team linup in up coming game

-- -- Pre-Game team lineups

-- -- Match updates, by the minute??

 

-- Stats

-- -- Player profiles

-- -- Player rankings for games and seasons

-- --

 

-- Chat

-- -- Live Chat Room

 

-- Archive

-- -- Player performances for the year

-- -- Most effective team linup for the year

-- -- Transfer history ??

 

 

I think you guys can get an idea from the list above as to what type of program im thinking of.

It would be good if we could come up with some ideas on this thread here, and then i could write up a quick and dirty HTML page basically outlining the purpose of the project, invitations to people with skills we could use and so forth.

 

First thing i would need is a graphics designer, and even a system architect who could help me develop the design of the system. if anyone would like to discuss this top further with me on a more private stage, please contact me on the following :

 

email : idusan@bigpond.net.au

msn : dule_ivanovic@hotmail.com

 

P.S I live in Aus, so it wont exactly be a project that can be worked on in regular hours of the day. This is the only Forum i have posted this on, as this is the only forum that i visit on a regular basis.

 

Kind Regards

Come on guys, i knoew it early over there but surely someone could be interested in contributing atleast some ideas

I'm happy to give input into interface design and any documentation that you'll be doing, even if it's only tooltip/on-screen hints type stuff.

 

I'm in Aus as well, which might make things a bit easier.

My idea, and it is clear, is to try and forget i'm in work so bloody early

There's something vaguely similar on the ipod/phone. It's called iFooty, they apparently got legal threats for publishing fixtures and now links directly to the BBC website.

Utterly ridiculous that it's possible to prevent people doing that by law

[Dule]

We would definantly have to check with the club as to any sort of image rights or any sort of infringments this may cause. However this being a pet project, that may or not be associated with YNWA(up to them), there would be no exchange of money in any which way.

 

This project would also be another thing that i could add to my CV, which is really the main thing i would get out this project. Also the prospect of working on a project with fellow reds would be brilliant.

 

Does anyone have any ideas as to the main features that the program should contain?

 

P.S Thanks for the reply Melia, hope to discuss things with you very soon.

The premier league fixtures on the BBC website do come with a copyright warning at the bottom of the page:

You would think that fixtures could be reproduced freely... but apparently not!

Just name change them like on pro evo

I could lend a hand with some XHTML, CSS , PS or Jquery if needed, my email is cjcorney@gmail.com if you want to get in touch, ta.

I've got no programming skills nor graphic skills but I really like the idea so if there's anything else you could need help with I'd love to help.

The iPhone app is a commercial product, naming rights would not be as big a deal for this project I don't think. I will be looking into that stuff more over the weekend
