Is this supposed to be a zany Star Wars reference?

I know, I keep picking on the Adver's headlines, but they really are shit.

A quick flick through the last few pages at all the shit pun filled headlines shows they've all been written by Anthony Marshall. He's certainly no nevillew.

No, the headlines are generally written by the subs, the journos just write the stories. So unless the Adver are really cutting back and have sacked all their subs, this probably isn't his fault. And sometimes you find the first "summary" paragraph wasn't in the original story either, that can often get inserted/changed by a sub and so completely change the tone of the piece.

Surely a better headline would be "Luc at us go"

To be fair, Lucas is hardly gonna come out and say ''fuck me Anthony, we stand no chance this year, we're fucking shit.''
