On a weekend like this ,as in our shitty team winning

 straight up to newsagent and every rag bought.

Does anybody bother these days ?

I think only the football league paper would mention us these days

Nope. 

Save your money for a Monday Bolton News. Fuck all news in it but a couple of pages of Wanderers.

Not bought a paper in yonks

anyone remember the pink 

 

Eeh

I remember back in my uni days (95) having to buy a paper the day after a midweek match to find out the result

Its one thing i miss

Getting the people on a sunday

See a paper lad near me every morning in every weather imaginable. Always think who the fuck reads papers at the crack of dawn nowadays.

Wonder how much they paid?

Think I was on fiver a week

£12 this way but went in early to put the bags together 

The last paper i bought was "The i" a couple of years back. Didn't mind it as it was more actual news than shit takes. The owner of the Daily Heil has it now though 

 

 

WHO GIVES A FUCK

wot other people  think

 

I used to get People, NOTW , sport and FL paper.

Now I barely read msm. I look for wider news because I'm superior to you puffs :lol:

Aye that’s the one pal 

Do get a paper on a Saturday, mainly for the weekly TV guide.

when we didn’t have kids, got the people and news of the world on a Sunday    and read the lot, especially when we had won.

I get electronic access to all the papers through lads uni.   Most of them don’t cover L1 & L2 at all.  Pages of shit about scousers, mancs and cockneys regardless of whether they have played or not.

FLP has Crawford as MoM today. Decent finish but writer must have been at a different game to me.

 In Big Sam’s column in the same he says things are finally looking up for us - incisive comment.

My mates son does our village, he gets paid £27 per week, or takes him just over an hour. He also only does Monday to Saturday, as he can't be arsed with Sunday, which another lad does and gets paid £10 for, takes about two hours that one, as it needs two bags

£27 a week!

Kin’ell hope the workers in my basement don’t find this out.

That’s very good dosh for a young lad

Some money in your village sweep 

Youngest does round 7 days a week for twenty quid.  Only takes 1/2 hour mon-fri. Always thought Sunday would be the killer but few drop off.  The Saturday is ridiculous with all supplements. End up picking them up in the car to get half chance of getting to football if he has early KO. 

Almost time for the Xmas card drop. He got £150 in tips last year.

If you get your paper delivered, I think it costs an extra £1 per week, hence being able to pay a half decent wage to the lad. Most of the kids round here can't be arsed getting up early to do it, as I think when he's on holiday or ill, then nobody gets a paper delivered.

😄 could be worse as delivers to Tom Daleys street. 

Since my teens I've once in a blue moon bought The Daily or Sunday Sport - very much dependent on how filthy the cover girl looks.

Shaun Ryder did a column years ago and he namechecked me - very proud. 😀

Used to get the Sunday Express and read the match reports then recycle bin it - only bought it to do the supplement's £1000 crossword; never sent it off though.
