Telegraph Monday to Saturday, Sunday Times.

I find this gives the best sports coverage, in my opinion

Same as but with either Sunday Telegraph or Observer on a Sunday - and for the same reason but with the addition of "decent coverage of foreign news" in an attempt to sound high-minded  Cheesy

Quote from: "manc red"
I generally buy the independent although the ever increasing amount of green articles is getting a bit heavy going, so occasionally i 'spice' things up with the times


The Independent are terrible for their self-righteous cover stories, especially the environmental and Iraq war(told you so) ones.  There was also a nice bit of reversal to serve their point a while back where they had 50 reasons why we love the EU or some crap on the front page, and what did they include in there?  Cheap flights!

Still, it's the only paper I really buy even if it has gone steadily downhill in the ten years I've been reading it.  I also stare at the red tops at work but I wouldn't call that reading.

I get The Daily Star, granted its shit but there's plenty of fit birds in it.

I do like The Daily Mail's sports coverage but thats as far as i can go.

I like the Daily star too,but more for the quality of the agony aunt than the amount of fit women in it  Smiley Dear Deidre in the Sun is also very good,all the rest are rubbish.Tabloids are just so easy to read,they don't effect/reflect my political outlook or view on life.
I like to get the Guardian on a Saturday,can last the whole day reading it.The Times cricket coverage is good,so i get that a bit in the summer.

ditto, although i'm getting steadily more irritated by how little news storys they (guardian moreso) serve up and prefer to offer opinions on matters instead.

that said, the sport is quality and the observer sport monthly is superb

I read the sun. It has everything you need!

I also like the Sport. You cant beat the column where people send their letters in to.

The broadsheets suck cos its impossible to read them cos its too big. You need go go gadget arms.
