Planned Network Upgrade: Possible Disruption This Weekend

We’re making some important behind-the-scenes improvements to ITFC Nation, with a move to a new network provider scheduled for Friday 13th and Saturday 14th November.

As ITFC Nation continues to grow, we’re constantly looking at ways to improve the platform and ensure it can accommodate future expansion.

To help achieve this, we’re migrating our network infrastructure to a new provider. This is an important step in improving the underlying infrastructure and ensuring we have the scalability needed to support the future development of the Nation network.

When will this happen?

The migration is scheduled to take place on:

  • Friday 13th November
  • Saturday 14th November

During this period, visitors may experience some temporary disruption when accessing ITFC Nation. This could include intermittent connectivity issues, temporary periods of downtime or pages taking longer than usual to load.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience and will be working to minimise disruption wherever possible. The disruption is caused by DNS propagation from the old to the new provider.

The good news: Two sites already migrated!

This isn’t entirely new territory for us. Our sister sites, MCFC Nation and MUFC Nation, have already completed their migrations to the new network provider and are both live and operating on the new infrastructure.

ITFC Nation is the next step in bringing the entire Nation network together on the upgraded platform.

Looking ahead

This is all part of our ongoing commitment to building something bigger and better for supporters.

As the Nation network expands, having the right infrastructure in place is essential. We want to make sure that what we’re building today can continue to grow tomorrow, without being held back by the limitations of our existing network.

Thank you for your patience and continued support. Hopefully, any disruption will be minimal, and we’ll be back to business as usual very shortly.

The future of the Nation network is looking bigger than ever!
