In a future issue of PATGOD we dedicated an entire issue to the kind of "small town" headlines that the ET trotted out on a particularly slow news day. You know the sort of thing. "Rare Newt Found At Rushden Site", or "Bedroom Badly Damaged By Fire". In fact, these have been lifted from today's ET website. Good to see that things don't change!
Mind you, we weren't adverse to generating such headlines ourselves, as the above piece demonstrates. Oh no. When the local media came calling after we were banned from selling PATGOD inside Rockingham Road by Big Cyril, we happily posed for the local rag's shutterbug. Our sad, cherubic faces were soon plastered on front pages the length and breadth of the ET's circulation range.
The funniest part of the entire affair was that apart from a few issues sold by the Coe Brothers on the Social Club door, we NEVER sold the damn thing inside the ground anyway!
