Madeleine McCann: Gail Cooper Says And Amy Fitzpatrick
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN: “Potential Maddie witness snub”
“The British woman who may have seen Maddie McCann’s kidnapper has NOT been quizzed by Portuguese cops”
Gail Cooper says she saw a man. An artist’s impression of the man has been released
Gail, of Newark, Notts, says: “They never contacted me. He must be found, even if it is to rule him out”
IRISH INDEPENDENT: “Mum vows to continue search for missing teen Amy”
“Mari Luz Cortes vanished on January 13, as she went to buy sweets from a local kiosk in the Spanish town of Huelva, near the border with Portugal. A massive search for the five-year-old is ongoing.
“The disappearance has been linked to that of Madeleine McCann from the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz, although police said they did not think the two cases were connected.
Ms Fitzpatrick yesterday said that her only daughter is “still just a kid”.
“She is only 15 and she has disappeared without trace.”
Amy Fitpatrick was 15 when she vanished after leaving her friend’s house near Feungirola, in Spain, at 10pm on New Year’s Day. She set out on the 20-minute walk to her own house, but has not been seen since.

Me neither, but then I wouldnt as I dont buy any newspapers, they are just a vehicle for poor writers being given a mouthpiece by biased editors - journalism doesnt live in newspaper offices!

Sledgie has resorted to much worse than that…can be very foul mouthed.
Do I care…NO.

Matt, speculation is your department, I merely drew attention to the excellent advice of AGW.

I didn’t spot anyone trying to push a blog, or trying to steal anorakeans. Just trying to make sure that if the same thing happens here we have a plan. Now we have one - all to the good!

To be honest, I am very suprised the Mirror forum survived so long. The mirror has been pro-McCann from the beginnning.
Its known to be a mixed up paper, used to be left wing for years but captalist ‘news’ papers struggle to be left wing in the UK since Thatchers years culling any anti-establishment activities!

but the mirror ‘quizword’ was excellent, don’t know if they still have it.

Plenty of doubtful posting on the other threads on MF’s….no closure of
them though. Odd ?

Anti- Iraq war (still hanging on to its left wing vestiges!) it ‘created’ photos to prove its point and Peers was booted (I heard he had said that he’d never leave his children like the McCanns did?) .
Something probably triggered the closure of that thread - the McCann abduction story (Tanner story now ‘downgraded’ by Team McCann) going in to meltdown and having to generate ‘Harrison Man’.
Its funny how many posters here think its a total waste of time and irrelevant, yet they still post and we could be sued if libellous!

Matt , gum bumper you made a statement that you can’t back up.

No one is drumming up support for other blogs. And it’s true that Anorak has been careful. But strange things can happen and we don’t really know why the Mirror forums have gone down (apart from what they say). I mean we don’t know the specific event/action/… that has provoked it.
——————————————-
Anyone reading this thread for the last hour can see for themselves that certain posters were trying to drum up support for other blogs; conducting the funeral obsequies of Anorak whilst it is undoubtedly live and kicking can be construed in no other way. Posters were commenting on ‘when’ Anorak goes down, not ‘if’.
Anyone with a genuine interest in supporting the blog would be asking what we could do to help, not announcing its demise.
And anyone reading the Mirror forum over the last few days would have noticed the truckloads of libellous comments, the libellous threads being pulled all the time, and the Mods inability to keep on top of hundreds of different threads…

Hello again, and again!
‘If Anorak Goes Down’ is the title of Brandon’s thread. The forums link is second along on the top strip of this page so first port of call if things do go wierd.
This is for people like me who need to be spoon fed directions! (-;
Right, can relax now…

Sledgehammer is as entitled to post and debate as anyone else I would have thought… or are you a new moderator?
…………………………..
Mirror forums…. word has it that it was becoming impossible to ‘moderate’. They were losing track and inappropriate posts were slipping through. That meant that the posts then got worse………. just the word on the street so to speak!

“Very strange “people” over there.”
On a second thought, it always seemed to me that the forum had been spinned as to be kept obsessively focussed on the possible guilt of the McCs and the Tapas9. This would make perfect sense: The mainstream media apparently protecting the McCanns, the seemingly independent forums opposing this - thereby also concentrating solely on the McCanns.
In the last days however, the discussion seemed to get slightly out of control. ..

Mods and Admin
WE not aware that WE are banning Firestar, I think Firestar has expressed a wish to us to issue a red card…
The place Brandon Flours is talking about is here http://www.anorak.co.uk in the Forums, a place of sanctuary for many of you during the recent crashes.
Anorak will be the last site to go down, and it will be inflames and under extreme duress and letting off flares left right and centre
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Right that settles in.
Repeat after me
And so say all of us.
