I was on it yesterday and you can still see the headlines and first few lines of the stories as it has always been but today it is a totally new front page directing you to subscribe.

I saw something in the paper edition last week about the online edition changing to a flip book/pdf like version from now on. i.e. the same look and format as the paper edition, rather than the look and feel of a webpage. Not sure if that is why there are no free pages anymore. Haven't a subscription so couldn't say for sure.

Yes, they sent an email out last week warning about such (no freebie pages any more).

I think this publication has gone down hill. there is no way I would pay money for it. Most of my GAA reading needs are catered for online.
