I've only glanced through it so far but definitely better than the PFAI version in the the Mirror last week.
Stars Magazine has very tabloid feel to it - loads of pictures, less text but good effort nonetheless.

I did like all the Boss Watch bits and thought the From the Terraces bit for City was good but sadly the only club to have that. Reads like a tabloid alright but have to say it is getting better.
I sent Eoin Brannigan a From The Terraces piece and wasn't used :(
I picked up an extra three copies if anyone wants one.
spot on - CCFC don't have website ..............according to the star todayQuote:

Saying anything positive about anything is controversal in EL circles tbf ;)
No I completley agree, okay the website thing was an error but ffs it's only a fairly small one.
Here ya go !! ... just give it a bit to load if on dail-upQuote:

No mention of the fact that it was free with a newspaper. Gyppo....
Will be interesting to see if any idiot forks out for it..
I thought it wasn't as good as last year's effort from The Star, just generally seemed a bit bland, stating the obvious in most previews.
Is it possible to read those previews online? It's hard to get offline versions in my city ;)
I'd say not fella, i'd say not !!Quote:

Does anybody have a spare copy of the Mirror's effort cos I missed that one?
Given that it was edited by Andy Needham of the League you'd think the basic information would be right, but it appears not. As I said in a previous post, it was all bit general, you got the impression nobody really knew much about the teams especially the First Division ones.
How can any one know much about the First Division?
There's bugger all coverage of it in the National Press.
None whatsoever in the Irish Times for starters... not even results and scorers.... as regards the Sunday papers... The Tribune might as well be an English paper.
I should take that back, The Guardian has all the el Premier Division results in it's Monday edition.
If the papers in general do not cover First Division they will not know much about the current state of either the clubs or their team's players.
