:TU: 8) :lol: .......thanks!... it's a bit off that boxing news haven't mentioned it, you'd think they'd be giving it more publicity.. :-? :-? :-? ... perhaps they'll mention it this week but then its only the day before and the paper often doesn't turn up in my newsagents till mid Saturday!... :roll: :roll: :roll: . ahhhh!.. 8) .

This was something that Chris Sanigar has been talking about, fights are now Friday and the shows are previewed in Friday's edition so a lot of people don't get to read them, hear about the dates until after the show, as the either don't get time to read them before the evening or sometimes don't get their copy until the Saturday

BN should move to Wednesdays or Thursdays :TU:

Good idea..... generally the state of the game is very worrying in this country, with SKY cutting back and showing pretty lame stuff anyway and the BBC not having a clue (why didn't they show the Thompson vs HAYE fight card live yet they gave loads more coverage to the recent Esatman yawn and Frotch mismatch!!!) things seem to be going downhill pretty fast!... 8) .
On a more cheerful note, any ideas about which exboxers may be at the fayre on Saturday?.......

Change 95 years of history because Sky-TV have decided to shit on boxing and stick it on when everyone's out on the piss.

Has it always been published on a Friday, the used to have Monday results in so I assumed it went out on a wednesday or something similar?
