Historic stuff, or good opinion bits?
I'm out of the loop and some old haunts aren't what they used to be.

The Queensbury Rules was quite good, I'm a big fan of Kyle Machlachan (sp?) so tend to read his stuff, pro-boxing fans used to be good but not looked there in a while

Just flicked on to the Queensberry Rules, which I haven't read in a while, and see it is now a sub directory of a wider sports blog. Looking through the list of contributors and there are a few that sound like characters from Toast of London.
Tina Squatley-Thrust
JJ Jabal
Nicholas Wong
Springs Toledo
Lisa Creech-Bledsoe
Wtf

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia: ... r_archives. I use a lot of sub only places, but if you're a member of a public library you can use their online resources too. A lot of sites boast online "historians" who aren;t worth two drops of piss in the ocean. They just BoxRec it.
Thank you Terence.
Was thinking of picking up the quill. And wasn't sure where to push.
