Re: Accy Observer
 
Ive never got the job section in the Observer, its always jobs in manchester! And now the big "book" in the observer also anoys me telling about events and life which is not even in accrington! I still read and buy it but it never has local news in and if it does then its not even that good, i have to admit there are a few good storys sometimes to read but not very often though!

But like all other things , papers cost money to print so all this Manchester and other non accrington stuff are adverts probably paying for half of the cost to print the things! Im glad its still going , but maybe their should be a new editor like people have said on here :)

didnt want to make a new thread about this so... What does people think about the citizen. Is this the crappest newspaper you ever read or what? sometimes no news on front page just a big bloody advert...or actually no... there are two front pages... with basically crap inside. It feels like a big paper but then when you pick it up a plethora of ****e comes out of it. Sometimes i feel like just leaving it behind the door to wipe my feet on

Ain't had one for years, ever since I bollocked the chap who was delivering one Christmas. All year this chap used to put 4 copies on the stairs in our block of flats, like help yourself, then mysteriously 3 weeks before xmas they started dropping on the mat behind the door, strange thought, then just before xmas a little knock came at the door and the chap was there asking for a Christmas tip, won't say on a family web site just exactly what I said, but he got the message:rolleyes:

Local pub reviews/sandwich shop reviews
Jobs available for local people
What's on for local events

I was about to say it is time your started doing your bit again but then thought you might take it the wrong way and hit me next time I see you :D

At least they seem to be trying. Shouldn't have a go really. They have admitted their error - on the front page of the paper - and have outlined the changes they have made and changes planned for the future, all seemingly designed to make the paper more about the town. Should be congratulated from my point of view, Some of you are just looking for something to moan about, in my opinion.

Rubbish it shouldn't be more about the town, it should be ALL about the town n surrounding area, thats what a LOCAL paper is.:rolleyes:

So are you a reporter or maybe the editor of the paper?
