It's not even the Adver that writes them is it? Did someone say something about an outside company doing the headlines? I don't know about you but that seems really abominably stupid to me.

Usually the sub-editor, Sam will confirm or deny!Title: Re: Adver News: The Town squad are in the Navy Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 14, 2014, 09:53:15 It's not even the Adver that writes them is it? Did someone say something about an outside company doing the headlines? I don't know about you but that seems really abominably stupid to me. I never tire of telling people that most of the Adver headlines are written in Oxford. I doubt that the dear old Adver will be around for much longer....Gannett are flogging off the Victoria Road site, after 150 years, I'm not sure they'll bother with a Swindon site, just ship it out to their site on an industrial estate in Oxford, until the almost inevitable shutdown.

I guess they are there as it all links in with the Petersfield friendly

Reg, that is a strong possibility, merge it in with the weekly Gazette and Herald. Whenever we were in S.Devon would always pick up a copy of the daily Herald Express - without warning and overnight it went to a weekly edition!I doubt that the dear old Adver will be around for much longer....Gannett are flogging off the Victoria Road site, after 150 years, I'm not sure they'll bother with a Swindon site, just ship it out to their site on an industrial estate in Oxford, until the almost inevitable shutdown. Title: Re: Adver News: The Town squad are in the Navy Post by: Not that Nice If I'm Honest on Monday, July 14, 2014, 21:07:36 I fail to see what's bad about the headline "The Town Squad are in the Navy", when it's from a story about the Town squad training with the Navy ?
What should the headline be ? "Town squad train with Navy, but do not actually join the Navy, just train with them on a temporary, non-committal basis" Title: Re: Adver News: The Town squad are in the Navy Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 14, 2014, 23:14:10 What should the headline be ?
