League and Non-League papers to continue

It looks as though reports on this website and many others last week that the League and Non-League papers were to close and a new paper called the Football Paper would be launched were premature.

The two papers were published last Sunday and will be in the newsagents next Sunday as usual.

John Lyons, the news editor of the League paper, has made the following comments.

"There have been internal discussions about amalgamating the two papers, but no final decisions have been made and the two papers will continue in their current format for the time being.

"If and when this changes, there will be major announcements in both papers to let our readers know."
