Dim witted Champion distributors - and equally dim witted paper boys and paper girls (can you still call them that?) - were both to blame for yet another Champion cock up last week, delivering the wrong paper (on the wrong date) to Westhead.

Locals looking forward to the Ormskirk and West Lancashire edition on Wednesday 19 October had to make do with the Crosby and Litherland paper from 12 October, most of which went presumably straight into the recycling bin.
