    The site is what seems to be a live news aggregator of the english football club liverpool, I'm looking into creating a website that also sources other RSS feeds in an almost exact way and layout can anyone help me out or give me an idea on how this site was created?

    Doesn't look to be wordpress or any other CMS...

    It's a (very poorly) hand-written site, using PHP for all the work (rss feeds, etc.), so there's no way to see how they're doing it (unless you hack into the site and copy the files). About all you can learn from the site is how not to write a site - they're using tables for presentation, and that's 20 year old technology that should remain in the past.

    It looks like some kind of feeds are used.
