Thanks BD and TOBW.
I had two mates who worked in Circulation at the time at the Echo. They were very busy although no complaints as tight targets attracted better pay rates. Both have since passed on...Flu and C19. Both rated Circulation as a happy ship. Your Dad must have been a top man as both of my mates were tidy whingers.

SF... John Billot was a very tidy chap and as Mario Bassini...both were feature writers and I cannot recall them being involved with sports.

The papers Cartoonist Gren....now sadly RIP was a huge City fan.

The comments about the ink on the Pink brings a wry smile...hot off the press and a huge circulation. Must read for City fans at the time under Jimmy Scoular and beyond.

I liked working at Thomson House. All the Sports Journo’s would engage in chat about the City except JBG and his trip,to Cyprus was probably down to nepotism. Lol.
