Tommy Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 Just the printing side of it ok, i heard it was everybody. Must have meant printing side but that's still a lot. Link to comment

tup Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Let's be honest they'd be better off simply not printing it, because it's shite. I hardly see a move to Dundee as a Lazarus-esque move that will haul their asses from this gutter of their own making. It's doomed to failure. 1 Link to comment

Jute bastards, jute bastards, jute jute jute. Aye knew this was coming. Be interesting to hear what our leader Barney Rubble has to say about it all. Link to comment
Site Sponsor RTYD Posted January 22, 2013 Site Sponsor Share Posted January 22, 2013 It is shite. We've been getting it delivered for years but some days I don't bother opening it. The wife reads it and is happy to spend my money continuing to. Print media is shrinking but the P & J should survive... for now. USP being local will give it a fair few years yet. Dundee is not local to me. I'll be binning it. Link to comment
Redstar Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 "The Dandy" has gone online these days...so those DC Thompson boys are twiddling their thumbs...what better than the P&J and the EE to get those comical printing press's going again...inspired. Link to comment

Stoney Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Been in the offing for a while Two of my mates laid off last year, one with 40 years service! Link to comment
StevieT1986 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Aye dc thompson been making some changes. Although the p&j sales are up the evening express sales are still down. Link to comment
ChutneyLove Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 So does this mean the "City Final" will reach the streets of Aberdeen an hour later? Probably not - I would think it means it will be printed earlier and therefore be even more like a carbon copy of the morning paper. Saturdays version will be even more unreadable. Court pages will be useless. Not worth buying an Aberdeen paper any more (if it ever was). Link to comment
zander Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 So long as the paper doesn't talk Dundonian like Brian fae Bergen then it shoud be fine. Sad news for the lads loosing there jobs. Link to comment
