Link sport appear to have an unwritten agreement they get all the 'exclusives' in return for only writing positive things and not asking awkward, non football related questions. At least Adver dig a little below the surface, spelling errors and all.

Maybe I'm naive but Sam's a town fan. I trust him to report the negatives but only if there are any. |

For the record, no such agreement exists. |

Link are new so if they want to 'last' then surely they have to be more positive with content in order to get quotes from the club and therefore hits on their website etc.

It all seems quite childish from both sides to be honest.

Good for you to state your case. By the way Link Sport is a good read....keep up the good work. |

Still remember the picture of Chris Kamara in mid air scoring a diving header in the Bank against his former club Pompey. Used to run out of the station and buy a copy before the train departed to Didcot. Happy Days. |

I can remember walking into the town centre to get a copy of the adver every lunchtime, even hanging around by Jimmy Wagstaff's stand for the Adver to be dropped off in our old Div 2 and Premier League days.
Now it seems to be falling behind the times. Stopped buying a copy a few years ago after working away and got out the habit.
Seems the Adver sports news might be trying catch up with the new boys. We seem to be going to have each of them out doing each other with exclusives or 'legend' interviews.
Hopefully this gets resolved soon. You would hope the Adver is trying to maintain it's editorial position to represent all of Swindon but can't help feel it's battling for survival.
