Farewell portadown news...

http://www.portadownnews.com/finalnotice.htm

It's gone for good. Guess it had to happen eventually, what with newt writin' all his fancy Columns in the papers and, you know, getting paid and stuff, but still, much woe here :(

It'll be sorely missed.

Edit - On a slightly more cheerful note, there's still some good stuff to be found in the links section. Trawling thro, I came across these - http://www.spreadshirt.net/shop.php?op=article&ac=details&article_id=1265937#top GAA knickers (jaysus!).
Even if we don't have the best footballers anymore and never had the best hurlers, at least Down can still say we have the best slogans ;)

It's a sad day. Now I have to find a new reason to get out of bed on Mondays :(

Isnt Shelley-Anne McAvoy a Pogues reference?

It truly is the passing of an era. Then again, don't all the radicals have to grow up sooner or later and get a mortgage?
