This typed fanzine page, headed Reviews, includes a review of The New English and The Third Man at the Tunnel Club in Greenwich on 28 October 1986. The writer reports an audience of 25 on a wet Tuesday in an industrial setting, says The New English were by far the better of the two bands, and praises the riffs of a guitarist spelt Sharef. The rest of the page covers gigs by other acts, and it ends with a sign-off from Nik and a handwritten note crediting the magazine’s artwork. It is the earliest review of the band in the archive.

The New English were by far the best, with Sharef playing some brilliant riffs.
