End of the road for the seagull love review?

I always see one of their chaps selling it in Tongdean Lane (just the other side of the tunnel from Withers).

And can I just echo the sentiments on here...Don't like it, then don't buy it. They go to the time and effort of producing it, its clearly a labour of love for them and I thinkg they do a good job. Its not for you or anyone else to say "don't bother". You don't like it, then just mind your own bloody business and leave it for those that do.

And I'd not heard about the Huddersfield "incident", but if they turned round and gave a gobfull to a bunch of mugs singing "no surrender" at a football match then fair play to them, because those chants are f***ing EMBARRASSING.

Just as I agree with the sentiment about 'if you dont like it then dont buy it' and mind your own business - equally the same applies to TSLR crew minding their own business about a group of lads having a bit of a crack and singing 'no surrender'?!

Whilst maybe inappropriate its not offensive and has f*** all to do with TSLR or anybody else!

Bollocks doesn't it.
Rightly or wrongly, dickheads singing that 'no surrender' crap taint ALL the away fans and make it embarrassing for everyone else who doesn't want to be tarred as one of the knuckleheads spouting that shite.

Put it this way, if a group of (say) Exeter fans struck up with a chorus of that at Withdean, my first thoughts would be "christ, what a bunch of knobbers Exeter have as fans then. f*** me, get into 2009 will ya ?"

To be standing in amongst it is embarrassing for anyone with more than eleven braincells. FACT.

It's not bad for a £1 but that Glory Boy is the weak link IMHO.

I think the demand for a fanzine has been killed by the likes of NSC. What can you say in a fanzine that can't be said on here? And it's a lot quicker to use NSC than make or buy/read a fanzine.
 




Yeah, now the novelty of having a fanzine again has worn off, it seems clear to me that the love review is a waste of time. I only buy it because it's a quid, but really, a 2 page spread on a Boys to Men song from 1993. What the hell? Theres not one laugh in it either.

Sorry guys if you read this, but quit while your ahead. The fanzine era is over.

Bit rich when you've got a link to We Are Brighton in your signature, which looks like a really crap version of the official Albion site, except for the 'Russell Slade look-a-like gallery' and 'Crocs On Tour' sections. :jester:

But you can't read NSC at half time, or have a quick flick through in the pub.
Well, not without looking like a complete GIMP anyway.

That's a good point, but it's like books v ebooks. You can't take the NSC to Withdean in your back pocket, or read it on a train/on the bog. It's the physicality of it - a little mag to pull out of the drawer to read when you're having a good old shite. Plus, there's no Palace trolls in it :thumbsup:

Looking at it totally objective, it is absolute quality. Can't think of many better fanzines in the country at the moment, and I'm saying that as a proper fanzine nerd. We should be glad that the two lovely chaps doing it - neither of whom could really be described as fanzine nerds - are willing to put so much time into it. Unless you think the programme is worth three times more money.
