Not the Spin aims to be entertaining and to tackle real issues that concern members and supporters

In April 2018 we released the first edition of our fanzine 'Not the Spin'. It quickly became widely respected on the County circuit and after our first edition sold 300 copies our 4th edition released in April 2019 attained a readership of many thousands.  In April 2021 we released our 8th issue with sales despite the grounds being empty until May reaching several hundred in just 2 weeks.


We have assembled an array of top class writers who contribute to our critically acclaimed fanzine writing on issues that affect Lancashire fans and indeed across the whole county circuit.
