I'm sure you'll all know that Neil Metcalfe has been made redundant from Newsquest. He is now launching a full Boro service for us off his own back, please see the Mansfield edition linked below.

This is really excellent coverage.

We're now in a use it or lose it scenario. Neil needs to make a living, so he will be charging £4 per month or £40 per year for access from next week. That's not really a lot at all for the quality of the coverage.

Let's dip our hands in our pockets, save coverage of our club, it's in good hands with Neil!

Is it any wonder people form their view of the world from what some cunt on YouTube says when all the legitimate news sources are being ploughed into the earth to satisfy shareholders?

Yup - regional press is a shit show these days. It's services like coverage of council meetings, local sport and the like that will be lost

There is now no match reporting for any local games in the press.

And even the Comet local news is just a reprint of court reports, paid obituaries, council planning and road closure notices.

No actual 'reporting' of news. Reader 'clicks' must be plummeting. And the website is unusable due to ads. The footy was the only thing worth reading.

Hopefully the club continue to give Neil exclusive interviews etc.
