You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''''Nottingham Post''''' (formerly the '''''Nottingham Evening Post''''') is an English [[tabloid (newspaper format)|tabloid]] [[newspaper]] which serves [[Nottingham]], [[Nottinghamshire]] and parts of [[Derbyshire]], [[Leicestershire]] and [[Lincolnshire]].<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.nsdatabase.co.uk/newspaperdetail.cfm?paperid=773|title=Publication Data|date=30 November 2023 ))</ref>

The ''Post'' is published Monday to Saturday each week, and was also available via online subscription until 10 March 2020.<ref>((Cite news|url=https://local.reachsolutions.co.uk/nottingham-post-iedition-refunds/?service=responsive|title = Nottingham Post iEdition Refunds – Reach|newspaper = Reach))</ref> It was formerly "Campaigning Newspaper of the Year".((Citation needed |date=July 2014)) In the first six months of 2018 the paper had a daily circulation of 14,814, down 14% on the same period in 2017.<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.abc.org.uk/product/9234|title=Audit Bureau of Circulation: Nottingham Post - Data|publisher=Abc.org.uk|access-date=21 January 2019))</ref>

Occasionally the newspaper includes special features which focus on a particular aspect of life in Nottingham. An example of this was the paper's ''Muslims in Nottingham'' series in April 2007. This consisted of a week-long series of interviews and articles in both the newspaper and on the ''Evening Post'' website. They focused on Nottingham's Muslim community, giving its members the opportunity to express their views of life in the city.

==History==
The first edition of ''The Evening Post'' was printed by Thomas Forman on 1 May 1878. It sold for [[Halfpenny (British pre-decimal coin)|½d]] and consisted of four pages.

In July 1963, the ''Post''((’))s main competitor, the ''Nottingham Evening News'', closed and merged with the ''Post''. Also, the city’s two morning papers, the ''Nottingham Guardian'' and the ''[[Nottingham Journal]]'', were merged into ''The Guardian Journal''. 
On 19 June 1973, a printing dispute began, causing a period of industrial turmoil in the company, and ''The Guardian Journal'' ceased publication on that day.<ref>[http://www.thorotonsociety.org.uk/publications/articles/thomasforman.htm Thoroton]</ref>
During the protracted dispute, some ''Post'' journalists launched their own newspaper, receiving moral support from [[Brian Clough]], then manager of [[Nottingham Forest F.C.|Nottingham Forest]].<ref name="Frecknall">((cite news|url=http://www.nottinghampost.com/Football-unions-Brian-Clough/story-12244827-detail/story.html|title=All Life's a Game – Trevor Frecknall recalls his time working with Nottingham Forest manager Brian Clough – Nottingham Post|last=Frecknall|first=Trevor|date=22 December 2010|newspaper=Nottingham Post|access-date=30 April 2012|quote=The ''Post'' was embarking on the latest (and, as it transpired, the last) massive confrontation with the massed militant forces of the Trades Union movement in the uncompromising campaign masterminded by its managing director, [[Christopher Pole-Carew]], to modernise newspaper production globally.))</ref>
Eventually, as the only remaining newspaper was the ''Nottingham Evening Post'', which increasingly covered the whole day’s news, it was re-named the ''Nottingham Post'' from the beginning of July 2010.<ref>Post Archive</ref>

One of the ''Post''(('))s stalwart journalists, Emrys Bryson, wrote a revue about Nottingham life called ''Owd Yer Tight'', which ran at [[Theatre Royal, Nottingham|Nottingham's Theatre Royal]]. The ''Post''(('))s sister paper, the ''Nottinghamshire Weekly Guardian'', published [[D. H. Lawrence]]'s first short story.

In March 1996 the ''Post'' was relaunched as a full-colour tabloid, although the Saturday edition had switched to the smaller paper size as far back as 1982.

The ''Post'' was based at offices on Forman Street<ref>[https://i2-prod.nottinghampost.com/whats-on/food-drink/article2133436.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/0_1369286JPG.jpg Corner of South Sherwood Street and Forman Street]</ref> in the centre of Nottingham until 1998 when the paper relocated to Castle Wharf House.<ref>[http://www.nottingham21.co.uk/build_evening_post_2.htm Corner of Canal Street and Wilford Street]</ref> It moved to Tollhouse Hill in the city centre in 2012.<ref>[https://i2-prod.nottinghampost.com/incoming/article528704.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_City-Gate-East.jpg City Gate East on Tollhouse Hill]</ref> In October 2011 printing moved from [[Derby]] to [[Birmingham]].<ref>((cite news| url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-15333564 | work=BBC News | title=Nottingham Post and Derby Telegraph printed in Birmingham | date=19 October 2011))</ref>

In 2012, [[Local World]] acquired the paper's owner Northcliffe Media from [[Daily Mail and General Trust]].<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-20424474 Daily Mail sells regional newspapers to Local World] BBC News, 21 November 2012</ref>

The newspaper's owner, Reach PLC, closed the Post's City Gate offices in March 2022, meaning that the Nottingham Post's remaining journalists all worked from home and the company no longer had a newsroom base in the East Midlands. A new office for the paper then opened in September 2023 on Castle Gate in the centre of Nottingham.<ref>((Cite web |last=Sharman |first=David |title=Nottingham Post regains office after Reach double U-turn - Journalism News from HoldtheFrontPage |url=https://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2023/news/daily-regains-office-after-publishers-double-u-turn/ |access-date=2023-10-01 |website=HoldtheFrontPage |language=en-GB))</ref>

==Other publications==
As well as the main newspaper, the ''Post'' also published a weekly sports paper on a Saturday throughout the football season, ''The Football Post'' (no longer published) which included coverage of the two local [[Football League]] clubs, [[Nottingham Forest F.C.|Nottingham Forest]] and [[Notts County F.C.|Notts County]], as well as coverage of local non-league football, [[cricket]], [[ice hockey]] and [[rugby union]]. In addition to this, the ''Post'' also previously published ''Forest Fever'', a weekly newspaper-style magazine dedicated to Nottingham Forest Football Club. Its weekly in-depth look at events at the [[City Ground]] featured interviews with players, former players, management and supporters.

There is also a monthly ''Bygones'' paper (no longer published as a separate publication), which publishes features and stories on the history of Nottingham.

==Contributors==

Over the years, several ''Post'' journalists moved to Fleet Street. Among them were Robert Bolton of ''[[The Sun (United Kingdom)|The Sun]]'', Robert Stephens of the ''[[London Evening Standard|Evening Standard]]'' and John Marquis of [[Reuters]] and [[Thomson Corporation|Thomson Newspapers]], who later went on to become an author and editor of the [[Bahamas]]’ best-selling daily, ''The Tribune''. Marquis was also voted Provincial Journalist of the Year in the 1974 National Press Awards (now [[British Press Awards]]) and was for many years London Sports Editor and Chief Boxing Correspondent of the Thomson newspaper empire, covering many [[Muhammad Ali (boxer)|Mumammad Ali]] fights. The late political sketchwriter [[Frank Johnson (journalist)|Frank Johnson]] (''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' and ''[[The Spectator]]'') was briefly a ''Post'' journalist, while the music and sports writer [[Richard Williams (journalist)|
Richard Williams]] trained on the ''Post'' in the 1960s. Another ''Post'' reporter, BBC regional broadcaster John Barsby, became president of the [[National Union of Journalists]].

Among the ''Post''(('))s more illustrious journalists of recent times was Duncan Hamilton, whose book about Brian Clough (''Provided You Don't Kiss Me'') was described by TV commentator [[John Motson]] as “one of the best football books I’ve ever read.” After 20 years on the Post, Hamilton became deputy editor of the ''[[Yorkshire Post]]''.

Well-known regional broadcaster [[Colin Slater]] was another ''Post'' stalwart, covering [[Notts County F.C.|Notts County]] for many years.

Nottingham born broadcaster, writer, humourist and film maker Steve Oliver wrote as a critic for the paper between 2011 and 2017.

In April 2013, Mike Sassi was appointed the editor. One of its longest-serving editors in recent times was Barrie Williams, who served for 14 years before becoming editor of the ''[[Western Morning News]]'' in [[Plymouth]].

In January 2020, Natalie Fahy was appointed editor of the Nottingham Post.
