Seems a long time ago that would religiously read FHM, GQ and Esquire every month.
Are these even still going
Both GQ and Esquire still going, both really sh!t now.
Cancelled my Esquire sub a few years ago, it's gone from being "style and substance" to full of 10 minute fashion fads, hipster looks and "why you need to embrace Machine gun Kelly's hot new look this summer" articles.
GQ is obsessed with Harry Styles and his 1990's mum's fashion look. Wouldn't be surprised if he's the editor he's plastered over it so much.
Where is there to go with a beard other than a bigger beard? They've painted themselves into a corner.
I pay £7 per month for a subscription called Readly which give you access to 100s of magazines including a fair number of the ones quoted on this thread and quite a few of the daily papers which you can download and read offline. I think its great value for.money and would definetly recommend it 👍
Thanks for this. It's got a few things I'd like - £9.99 a month for new subscribers but with 2 months free.
Still subscribing to WSC, still the best football read out there.
I also get Vintage Rock (veers off the main subject a bit, but generally good if somewhat expensive), UK Rock n Roll (terrible, but the fact it is there at all and is in Smiths is enough to make me want to support them) and Private Eye (which everyone should read if they have any interest in what is really going on in politics) whenever I am in the UK.

Two very well written and funny articles in WSC this month reviewing BBC and particularly ITV's coverage of the world cup. For example:
"[Mark Pougatch's] sudden occasional frown on finishing an innocuous phrase is a diverting idiosyncrasy - as if in return for his rise to eminence in the field of sports presentation, he is cursed to recall a mining disaster every ten minutes"
"At the charmless end of the spectrum, Lee Dixon's tone of grudgeful sarcasm was relentless. - if Pixar ever need someone to voice a landfill microwave, Dixon is their man"
