Does anybody read this?
I’m looking for a mag for my 12 year old. He’s been reading MOTD Mag, but he gets through it in about 5 mins and it’s pretty rubbish.
Any recommendations, gratefully received..

Best thing would be to buy a copy of each of the grown up football mags this coming month and see which ones grab his attention the most. At his age I had discovered Rothmans Year Books and spent many an hour thumbing through it.

FFT is a good read and aimed at older audience than the comics (MOTD) - well worth it for a 12year old

My 13 year old son has recently started reading FourFourTwo and enjoys it much more than Match etc.

Used to love "Shoot" comic and the "You are the Ref" feature. Brilliant.

I thought they started a WSC for youngsters?

This. I think I'd moved on from trashy kids stuff by the age of 9 (except Roy of the Rovers...)

My favourite bi-annual was this:

Anyone remember ?

I was the adult go-to for football stats.

I was in the Four Four Two magazine, photos taken on the pitch at The Goldstone during a protest after a match.

During my days as a postman I had to deliver The Cock Monthly, and no, it didn’t have any articles on laying chicks. punish:

Total Rugby by Tony Pulis, a very quick read.

I've got a few old Rothmans (and some of the later Sky versions) gathering dust. Anybody interested in acquiring one or more, PM me.

Time to let him loose on NSC. Always a good read. :moo:
