I'm a bit confused.  Wasn't Nursey being complimented around here a couple of days ago?

You could just write Nursey off as smarmy wanker who writes for a pointless rag that no one in their right mind would make an effort to buy.


i've been buying the Daily Mirror for the last 30 years


which probably proves your point     :)

John, why would you do this when you can read the news online?  Just curious!

Possibly. He's got a habit of writing positive stuff about us one minute, then sticking the boot in the next. I wish they'd give him the job of writing about Blues instead, it's more his level.

habit i suppose,
 always had a newspaper around the house, my Wife reads all the gossip and trashy stuff, and you can take it around pick it up and read it anytime anywhere,
i started to buy the Mirror as a rebellious gesture against the Daily Express that my parents took, and its just carried on.

as tabloids go i still reckon its the best about, but as with any newspaper the actual news in already a day old,

i also buy the Observer on Sunday,
 that normaly takes me a whole week to read, and ocasionaly if i have a load of time to spare i will take the Guardian, as i'm a big lefty,
 but always have the Mirror as my Wife wont read the other two as they are 'boring' i think she means there is nothing about Cheryl Cole or X factor in them

As usual:

Journo writes something good about Villa = Great bit of writing.

Journo writes bad thing about Villa = Fucking useless hack writing for a rag.

Twas always thus.

Not really.  The Mirror is just about the worst rag of the lot.  Always.

Fair enough.  I bought a paper for a couple of years, usually the Mirror and Guardian like yourself, until I was fortunate enough to be able to afford the internet.  Never bothered since but can definitely say that habit prevents me from visiting all corners of the internet to come here and a few other trusted sources.  Same thing I guess.

My wife visits the Mail's website.  Not for the news you understand, for the gossip stuff.  It's beyond me why she does this as she is otherwise an intelligent person!  Oddballs the lot of them *skates on thin ice*

That honour belongs to the Daily Mail; vile, hate filled propaganda sheet masquerading as a newspaper.

I'd say the sport parts of the Mail are quite good, it's when you turn to the front pages you start to have problems.

I sometimes do alittle test. What page of the mail can I get to before I get so angry with the bollocks in there that I have to fling it down. Normally about page 7.

I really, really fucking hate it.

Interestingly however, a lot of my friends have parents who read the mail. They'd not dream of it, but it's interesting that they tend to come from lower middle class backgrounds and have done really well for themselves. A lot of my bro's lefty middle class background guardian reading families have essentially produced very nice blokes who are complete wasters.

Just reading Paul lamberts autobiography and what a great book- great insight into him and also his bust ups with mcleish at Motherwell, clearly eck wasn't any better in those days and Paul comes across as a highly driven and impressive man.

Risso is correct. The Mirror is appalling stuff.
