How can people buy a copy BB if like myself they dont live in the area?

The Argus are really shooting themselves in the foot over this, making people pay to check out their website, its a joke, wonder how many hits theyr getting a day compared to newspapers theyr selling though?! ???

Maybe we can have a forum on NSC where someone can post the daily Albion news from the argus.

NO NO NO

NSC had a brush with the Argus last year (I think) when people were using Argus pictures in their threads, The Argus is scum leave it alone

Annova Is Pretty decent if you want an unbiased news read

What's the Argus doing anyway? I can read the Albion news on there fine at the moment. Is this about to change?

Its usually the other way around, post it here the Argus publishes it.

I work in London SE1 and the WH Smiths at London Bridge station do the Argus, so I can get one there. I've done so today, slightly grudgingly, but I do enjoy sitting on the train home reading the reports.

Well pissed off, i'm also not exactly able to pop down the local Newsagents and ask for a copy of " Le Argus". The frogs would probably take the piss for months

What a crap decision by the Argus. Seriously, who's going to stump up £60 for a years subscription, for something they were getting for free before ?

Surely as the number of hits on their site plummets, they will lose out on copious amounts of advertising revenue they were previously getting when everyone could access the site. I can take it or leave it quite honestly. Its a bit of a pain not being able to read it on-line now, but certainly not enough of a pain for me to go out and buy one every day, or subscribe.

Stuff that.

Hove, f***ing ACTUALLY.
They are really a bunch of CNUTS.
A few of the 'Nationals' tried this stunt and the advertising revenue collapsed overnight, lets hope the same happens here.
