That’s right, Issue 39 is currently getting spluttered out of a massive printing machine as you read these words. It’s inky wonderfulness appearing on it’s nice, shiny pages with all the grace of a preening swan. The pages gently fluttering in the breeze of extractor fans giving off a gentle aroma just potent enough to get high on, ahem should you want to.
With 52 – yes you read that right – FIFTY TWO PAGES for just two quid the Mudhutter is set to cement itself as the nation’s* favourite bog read (*NB applies to WN postcodes only) If we were to s
ummarise it in a tweet we’d probably describe it as “a load of rambling, nostalgic bo**ocks about football with occasional reference to other matters of the day” That’s hardly going to grab your attention is it but that’s effectively what it is. People who write writing about things they like to write about and hopefully you enjoy reading and occasionally nod your head to in agreement.
This issue covers crowds, racism, the Olympics (yes – again!), football cliches, Acid jazz – yes Acid jazz, the database, a nostalgic look back at a past season, ugly footballers, buskers and a raft of the usual stuff.
Enough spoilers anyway, it’s coming your way soon and will be on sale this Saturday before the Reading game on the bridge and opposite Rigalettos. Also on sale in the Brickmakers, Waterstones, Sparks, Mesnes Road and on the Robin Park programme van.
You can also buy online right now here (Royal Mail send their apologies for the extortionate postage costs)
Finally, we will have a Kindle version of MFE Issues 38 & 39 online for you to buy at a reduced rate over the weekend. [Puts finger in his ear Partridge style “And I’ve just heard Roger Moore is at Chiswick Roundabout”]
No seriously it’s close and we’re hoping that this will add a whole new angle to reading the Mudhutter and looking forward to sharing it with you and getting all your angry emails when YOU can’t figure out how to download it properly.
Yes, well enough insane drivel. We now declare Mudhutter Issue 39 on sale. From this Saturday…..
