I remember David Meek slagging it off in the Evening News for making crude jokes about scousers, next thing I heard was Red News sales had gone up about 400%!

It was really £#%&!ing depressing to read during Eric's ban and I stopped getting it at that time. I felt much worse after I'd read it than beforehand.

Don't really remember that - what did it say/do that was so bad??

Couldn't agree more, never seen Barney with anything but a smile on his face!

To dismiss him as a red/his worthiness as an editor of a Utd fanzine is £#%&!ing nonsense!


Both he and his mam were going home and away before people slagging him were learning to stop pissing in their nappies ffs:shakehead:

People who live in £#%&!ing LEICESTER yet bring their kids up just for the match and maintain they are 'Utd fans' I might add :£#%&!er:


What's the difference Barney's mam was a Manc in exile who brought her son up to be a red...

yea Carlo,when you see Barney,
tell him fish says hello.

Great lad Barney,and Red News always been my favourite mag.
