NorfolkRanger 0 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Thinking of buying a years subscription to the Rangers News at £94. Do any fellow Bears on here read it? If so how do you rate it? In terms of interviews, features etc. Is there any news in there that you cant get on the official site..... Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I used to spend £2.25 on it every week but cancelled my subscription about 6 months ago. If you wait a day you get all the interviews in the papers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest therabbitt Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I'd have to recommend getting the Number 1 Fanzine, it's my personal favourite. Also, quite a few of the writers that write their excellent pieces for this website contribute regularly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinViesel 399 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 The time these magazines reach you, it is old news. You would be hard pushed to find anything in it that hasn't been discussed on here previously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkRanger 0 Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 Better of with a subscription to Follow Follow. £24 for ten issues seems fair enough...How often does it come out? And is the Number 1 Fanzine better than Follow Follow? Rabbit, where can you get a copy of the Number1 fanzine? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest therabbitt Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 The time these magazines reach you, it is old news. You would be hard pushed to find anything in it that hasn't been discussed on here previously. I've found, especially with No1 that many of the articles are either excellent summaries and opinions of the games and events that have happened from the last magazine or they are what I call "timeless" articles that can be published anytime as they are about general Rangers concepts or players. Before I got involved with providing some of our articles to No1, I'd never really read a Fanzine, but I was really really surprised at how much I enjoyed it. There have been moments when I've literally laughed out loud on public transport! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Manticore* 1,893 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I wouldn't waste my money on Rangers News/ Pravda. I prefer FF to No1, No 1 is a glossier product but it is not in the same league as FF regarding content. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can subscribe and have it sent to your door if you want though at a fair price.

I've had a few towards the end of last season, there's been a few from other posters here too (usually around two per issue depending on whether the ed. has space) Also, I'm happy in the knowledge I've not been on the first few pages...
