Interesting story about Southampton FC who have banned newspaper photographers, as they employ their own photographer who then sells photo's to the papers. Who's going to win this battle of wills?

I heard about this on 5 Live, and the consensus was that it's a pretty stupid move. Apart from anything else, at the first game, they had to allow their opponents to bring an official photograper, who just sold all his photos to everyone cheaper.
I heard that someone got round it by presenting the match report in cartoon form. Anybody know who that was?

It was the Plymouth local paper that did that:

They're talking about making it a regular feature, which would be pretty cool.

i don't see why the papers don't use some of their previously published photos and just photoshop different heads on to them
