Mmmmmmm. Some might say this is an orangy pink or a salmon pink. . . Though it is the same colour as the old Saturday footy Echo . . .

off topic a bit but what a feat of human acheivement to get the footy echo into the shops an hour and a half after the final whistle on a saturday in pre-microsoft / mac days, I tell people here about how it used to be in the 70's but I think they don't belive me, also what happend to the scousetrk cartoon in the echo, has it ever been re-published

You should see a doctor if it's that colour Sir :PDT_Aliboronz_24:
