I suspect DNS server error, try going to the site by using this link:

http://46.38.178.219/

This is the IP of the same site and if you are nervous you can check it youself by open a dos prompt on a computer and typing ping www.fantastyfootballscout.co.uk or at least doing so on a computer that CAN connect to the site.

same story mate.. "waiting on http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/" down the bottom right but just refuses to load

Maybe the f*** up fairy paid you a visit and added www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk to the hosts file?

Try going via http://proxy.org/

It still sounds like a few things:

Your ISP is blocking it for some reason.
Your DNS Server is borked.
Someone fecked with your Hosts file.

Id start with changing your DNS servers to googles, what version of windows do you use?

Do you have malwarebytes installed on your PC?

using windows 7 at the min. don't use malwarebytes just AVG and zone alarm

Try use this guide,

you can use the IP's they suggest or the google ones which are;

8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

I would then open a command prompt by hitting start and typing cmd.exe and press enter

in the DOS prompt type:

ipconfig /flushdns

and try then

I much prefer OpenDNS's public DNS servers (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) over Google's. The notorious "Doers of Good" aren't exactly the most trustworthy bunch regarding one's privacy.

The "DOS prompt" requires administrator rights to execute this command.
