Who did you fire Dave? Wasn't for sexist comments about female fanzine distributors was it?

Those applying must be water resistant and have current life insurance cover.
A CSE in maths is an advantage.
Those with previous "hard sell" experience will go to the front of the queue.

You haven't been sacked, you're being given an assistant.

I will continue in my capacity as Legion's unofficial sales assistant.

I am sure that a detailed statistical analysis would show that his sales dramatically increase when I'm stood by him.

Not according to Villadawg. The combined sales of My Eyes Have Seen The Glory, Cock-A-Doodle-Doo and The Proud Cockerel far outstrip H&V sales.(winky)

Don't get me started on H&V's sell-to-drink policy.

All that money that should be going towards avant-garde new writing talent and graphic design, is being quite literally pissed up the wall at The Barton Arms. I wouldn't mind so much if it was being spent on proper wife-beater type booze but it is all been thrown away on useless, flat, dark ale type micro-biotic shite.Its a disgrace.

Where do you sell these days, Legion?

Where I park (Serpentine), I have to double back to buy off Mac, and as I often get to the ground only just before kick off, instead rely on a seller (which often used to be Legion) on Witton Lane at the corner of the Holte and the Witton Lane stands. Recently no-one's been there, though, and I have to leg it up to Trinity Road quick to get my fix.

I'd prefer not to get a subscription as I really appreciate the "sad bastard" comments I get off my wife as I get the £1.50 out of my pocket.

I think the H & V sellers have suffered under Woodhall's new training methods.
Making them run up and down the slopes of Aston Park prior to selling, can't be much good for them.

Since the "King of Chaos" is probably off instilling disaster into the country's youth at the moment, I'll answer on his behalf......

Normally on Trinity Road, either right outside the gates or across the road opposite the burger van. However, last week Leeg was by the North Stand carpark gates across the road from the watchful eye of Dave.

You must have three or four copies of the Christmas issue.

Usually Trinity Road gates before the game and inbetween the park and the church afterwards in the middle of the road. Luckily the authorities have closed the road to traffic.

The site won't let me PM you Dave, so just to say if you're short of hands for any of the away games in London let me know and I may be able to help on a game by game basis...checks fixtures for next such an occasion...ah yes, W Ham on 16 April then Arsenal 14 May. Reckon I could probably do those.
