Wow, the first is much better. The second has several problems:

it requires a plugin
graphics are stretched and too highly compressed (artifacting is visible)
the document has no title
the color scheme is horrible and in some places hard to read
there is much content which is in the first site that is not here (e.g. league tables, club pages, etc.)
the graphics are sloppy and unfinished (look at the two lines below "shop|forums|team", one of them is not straight!, lines are not joined at top-left corner or "news" section, there are many more places like that)
content is not accessible to visually impared
overall, it lacks the excitement/energy that sports should have


While the first page has it's problems, at least it looks professional.
