Oh well itwill still be good to see how many people want it back as it can't Hurt


I've emailed them, ya never know. Gotta keep optimistic like I do about my teams score on sundays

No chance, i think there was a campaign at the time, and they still scrapped it, nice to keep trying though, unless you can get mr Murdoch on board, as he runs the show in this country, even behind closed doors.


So mr Murdoch, when you do read this from your beautiful ivory tower, spare us a few quid and bring it back.

allegedly.

i dont know but someone told me last week that its still for sale on fridays, correct or not i honestly couldnt say

It will never reappear, it ended when the printing presses at the merc shut down. that is why the Merc is poor....printed out of the county in Cambridgeshire and always out of date anyway!!

Murdoch killed it when he took away the contract for printing the SUn and NoW (as was) from the Mercury presses about 5/6 years ago!

Nothing on sale Fridays. Now defunct

to be honest, it never made me buy the paper. Would look on the net

which is why it floundered if it was losing money

Won't happen

Closed because not enough people bought it simple.

Lcfc fans and tigers fans used club websites, national press and the mercury rather than waiting for the blue

Grassroots footballers would buy one or two per team and pin it up in the changing rooms or pass it around.

If I remember correctly was selling something in the region of 4,500 copies when it was canned would need to do at least 10,000 to make it profitable

Never going to get that kind of support every week

agreed
