Two days after Blackpool won promotion to the Premier league, a feat practically on a par with man landing on the moon, and the Lancashire Evening Post website hasn’t a mention of the event. Guess it’s a difficult one balancing the Lancashire bit with a predominence of Preston readers but it would stimulate some debate and letters if an article was added.
The Gazette website has wall to wall coverage. Then again Blackpool is a unitary authority and Lancashire County Council have made the point by writing Welcome to Lancashire on the boundary roads of Blackpool, seems a bit petty and wasteful. Although maps and the County Palatine still include Blackpool in Lancashire.
Perhaps a campaign to rename the paper the Preston Evening Post or PEP.
