    Not a bad effort NIS...Well done........Have to agree with the others about the red background.

    Yeh the more I look at it I would be inclined to agree. What font colour / background would be better? Just black font on white?

    Generally I don't like blogs as they are mostly a regurgitation of other people's ideas and information.

    I would have thought so...my print size possibly no 6 or maybe no 5. Maybe red on white perhaps or similar try different fonts and sizes to see what you think. Just don't do blue.........<laugh>

    The clearest contrast is yellow on black....is that an option?

    Or black on yellow presumably.

    I find black on white quite easy on the eye but I am a bit retro in my opinions.

    It also looks the most professional - may not be important, but presumably you want people to take it fairly seriously?

    I seem to remember reading that white script on black background was the easiest to read. Would also look faintly occult-friendly.

    If anyone is using the new Microsoft Edge browser [I'm not] they can easily reverse the background and text colour. One day I might start using it regularly.

    Thanks mate, as it's a Southampton blog I tried to angle it towards club football while giving an honourable mention to his international achievements. Thanks for reading.

    Nice piece about one of Saints' less-sung heroes. As said by others, the blog looks really good now, keep up the good work!
