Never to the dark side Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Firstly I was disappointed the green'un was done away with going back in the 1970'sI was even more shocked when it was re-introduced I can't understand why it was re-introduced although very pleasedwhen the internet was starting to take offMaybe some one could clarify the circualtion was 8,000 approxThe nice thing about he green'un was it had a large local contentsome thing you struggle to find in National papersI totally digress, would you like the paper to continueif it cost a pound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WillsbridgeRed Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Sorry Ted, i wouldn't pay 10p for it.The fact is, the Newspaper business, especially in terms of local papers, is in rapid decline.For example, why buy the evil post when you can read it on the net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 Fair enough, just curious what other City fans think of my posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest andy234 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Used to buy it religiously every weekend, but last year they stopped delivering it to Burnham-on-Sea, had bad withdraw symptoms at first but have now finally got over it.

Never to the dark side Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 Well I always bought the green'un what ever our result, maybe it was just habit.There was one place near me who use to still have them on SUNDAY afternoonsNever understood why those I bought on SUNDAY had the Green'unheader missing,untill a few weeks agoPost and press staff will know what I am talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xerox6060 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Will miss my Saturday night pilgrimage to get the Green UN, though I suppose I'll soon get used to the Monday night read, as already mentioned it was probably more habit than anything else.

WTFiGO!?! Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I think it is a good read but then I also only tend to buy it when we don't loose so it is not really a valid statement as I tend to associate it with posistive City results and a slightly better looking league table.I like the way it covers a bit of history and it does help me keep in touch with whats going on behind the scenes at AG. Also the letters page use to sometimes prove interesting but for for publics oppinions the internet has now firmly put newspapers in their place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granty Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Yes i would pay a quid but there again iam fickle and only buy it when we winSame here, have not gone and bought it much this season as I tended only to nip out on a Sat night once we had won.

Portland Bill Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I used to buy it every week WITHOUT FAIL . But cant get it in Bridgwater now, and cant get the EP either. Also the WDP we get around here is increasingly becoming dominated by Yeovil news . Theres a lot of City fans round here who are well hissed of with the local paper scene now.
