Given the latest front pager, do you think this newspaper is worth buying any more?
Do you think it's worth holding exclusives for this newspaper to print any more?
Do you think it's better to use the "new media" to communicate messages to the fans?
Can we generate our own support without the "help" of the sensationalist local press?

'Read all abaht it - RR in 'POLL' exclusive'



Stuff 'em!

I don't do many, but this one has really got my goat. I hope we contest this. Pathetic support from the local press. I won't even bother with an online click for that rag anymore. The YEP has it covered anyway.

Maybe that's what they want - seeing as they are part of the same group and one is daily and one not!

My response
To the editor
Thank you so much for your "support". Needless to say after 40 years I shall no longer be buying your paper and no one else in the household will either, that is a promise. The headline is deliberately provocative and smacks of the gutter press I doubt even the SUN would have run with THAT.

I'm sure they'd like you to buy both.

I don't have a problem with a local paper reporting local news in a relevant way, but this isn't it, by any stretch of the imagination. I also think AG would have a case if he took this further. This shoddy publication should be shut down. Wakefield will be none the worse for it, unless they can find a decent editor to publish something truthfull and worthwhile.

As a Cas fan, I would boycott it for sure, Even the Ponty and Cas wouldnt go this low to pick holes in you.

I dont see why this is such a big issue? He didnt commit the offence while with you, And its hardly like he is a superstar long term signing.

Very bad work IMO from the Wakefield Express

WAKEFIELD EXPRESS = AMATURE SCUM THAT DOESN'T CARE FOR THE CITY

Not quite an anagram, but it does for me.

I'm not surprised it's in the printed bog roll given its exemplary journalistic track record, but... front page? Seriously? Thank you kindly for the advertisement, WE.

I don't buy it so don't know what the latest headlines are.

I stopped buying it about 20 years ago because it was crap - seems it hasnt improved!

Trin are news at the mo, tabloid mentality, rather stupidly i thought we could exspect more from our local 'paper'

I apolgise for my spelling, when i try to type fast my spelling suffers ! but the sentiment is always there !

Thas reet old lad.

I'v sent a letter to the editor to let him know that I will not be purchasing his foetid rag until they drop this ridiculous agenda, and will encourage my family, friends and colleagues to do the same.

true though

just realised wot tha ment i spell in yarkshire

)

I have n't bought the Express for years. I only bought it in the past for Trinity reports.
Obviously I can't comment on the current content but generally they do appear to go out of their way to put a negative slant on everything linked to Trinity.
The sooner they go bust the better.

Never buying it again. Wouldn't even use it to wipe my backside with.

LOL at WE!



From Andrews FB page:

[iI will never, ever advertise with the Wakefield Express. What a disgrace they are running with the story they have on the front page! I urge anyone that knows me not to buy it. What a shambles!![/i

So that's WY Windows and WTW accounts down the tubes!

Well done Mr G !!!

I have emailed the editor and urge fans to do so. Last weeks was my last purchase. They run a cheap tacky rag and perhaps a banner or concerted effort from the fans will reduce their circulation and income. Who would buy them if they had an administrator in, the Star? =#FF0000EDIT viewtopic.php?f=33&t=421878 I agree with the sentiment, but let's not lower ourselves to their level. Ta. RR
