Server too busy error on the A-League website?

Anyone else getting a "Server Too Busy" error from the A-League website, particularly during games? If so, any lurkers from across the Tasman getting it to or are they prioritising Aussie traffic over Kiwi traffic? If they're genuinely struggling to cope with bandwidth demand they need to move to a new ISP -- it's not a good look.

And while I'm whinging... how hard would it be to have the ladder updated within minutes of the final whistle?

For those going there to find the latest scores and the league table (as I was), a good alternative is the Wikipedia A-League portal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:A-League

The latest scores and table are on the portal page itself and of course there are links to more detailed articles elsewhere.

Wikipedia rocks. Ironic that fans can keep it more up to date for free than paid staff maintaining the A-League website... Speaking of which, more contributions to the Phoenix team and player pages would be good...

Goal difference. The 3-0 loss has hurt the goal difference.

Yeh even the live updates of the score between Perth and Roar kept fluctuating (when I finjally got into the site). 81 min gone... 75 min, 87 min, full time, 87 min, full time, now its back to 89 min.

Sounds like the Roar have won though

Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet
