Forum page freezing

I'm sorry if this has a thread already, but the website page will just freeze on me and not let me click on anything. I'm obviously logged in now, but I couldn't even do that for much of yesterday. I could read Everton forum threads then it would just not let me click on anything on the page.

I could navigate and click links on other websites when this was happening just not GOT.
 
Here are screenshots of the ad that seems to be causing my problem. If I can't login before this ad pops up, it freezes. I logged in again as fast as I could before the ad could load and I was able to login.

UPDATE: @GrandOldTeam Also, if this ad shows up while I'm logged in and browsing the forum, it freezes the page. I can't even logoff. I have to close the page and get back in again.

Thanks I'll get that ad pulled.

Bonus points if you can nab a URL for it

Last few days it has happened intermittently with me using Samsung Internet on android. I have to close the browser and restart.
Was blaming my phone but now I can blame GOT.
Boooooo! Get Jo on ffs!

Been happening to me for months on Safari and Chrome. Page just freezes dead. Hard closing and therefore resetting the app fixes it as the page loads fresh again.

get a new phone you tramp.

Think there's 3 things here;

1. App users. Don't use it. It exists solely for any users of apps to find us. A bridge. "search everton. oh whats grand old team?" It offers no added functionality an just opens the forum in a smaller frame. We can't afford a decent app, and when we had one, it was a money pit that needed too many updates. I can't do apps. If you want to use an app and have android, please use the web progressive app here. Not the one in the apple/android store (that I think has vanished now anyway/only available on legacy installs)

2. Rogue Ad. I think that Chevrolet ad is freezing a very small number of user pages - I've never had that ad before but reported it to our ad agency this morning.

3. Old phones/browser add ons. You might notice it on GOT because you spend longer on here than most places?

To conclude it's never our fault like.

No idea if it's related or any help, but when I tried to come on the forum last night on pc it gave me a 502 bad gateway until I gave up and came back later. Could just have been my connection going dodgy though, sites usually fine.

Thanks;

Hi Danny,

Just confirming we've identified and asked for that Chevrolet ad to be removed,


Let me know if that doesn't solve the issue as expected,

I'm just getting a blank page when opening the app.

The links to the forum all work, there's just nothing on the first page.

I did get an error message on my phone that it wasn't running properly, but that hasn't repeated

Yeah, don't use the app mate.

Oh the app?

Just tried it and had the same. It does it do this?

I never use the app/don't recommend it for browsing the forum. All it does is open an internet browser within the app. Best just using the internet browser on your phone.

Ok, that's a pain though.

How do I get my GOT news on the go now?

Read what I quoted above mate, also again below;
