Any one remember this little (two) page offering, a fraction of editorial, a large 'dogs for sale 'section,With legands like Bobby Jack,Alan of Manchester, Imelda Phelan ,etc advertising weekly.
A flapping open race section.
The sales valuaton, (The agents used to hate this as it exposed what they had paid for the dogs).
Then The NGRC Open race results section,which tok up 3/4 of the paper ,they were about a month out of date and originally had no 'in running comments' just finishing order Sp distances .etc.
What a read ,every Thusday,
