Spong likes stealing news I see...I have noticed that you guys seem to take news from 1 particular place...MCV...

If you want to take some other sites news how about putting up all the info from www.n4g.com as well?

We actually cite where our news come from, yes. It's an old-fashioned habit. You will also notice that MCV takes our news leads on occasion . But that, of course, would entail looking.

As it would have done had you read the fact that we went to Chart Track direct and were hence able to quote directly from our source there.

As and when we do, we will cite it as a source.

Always appreciate a constructive and incisive criticism.

I was just saying in general, I go over to MCV and saw well like much of the stuff on here there first and then see it appear here later.

When I mentioned N4G its just that there is sooo much news on there I have been more active on this site lately since the company here (where the IT manager is also called Tim lol) have blocked many sites including N4G.

the great thing about news is everywhere reports the same thing... because its news! which just leaves you the consumer the lovely option of choosing where you prefer to get said news, as in general you wont miss out on anything.

i like getting my news from spong for a variety of reasons. i dont like getting it from mvc for a variety of reason. so i personally dont care who 'broke' the story as long as spong keeps me informed. keep up the good work guys!

As ever, the usual brown envelope containing Euros (it was Euros this time?) will be under the third larch in the west end of the park.
