Some truly great articles, but to be honest not enough to warrant £10 per month - especially in the current climate. I can't justify £60 for the year at the moment either, maybe offer a lower tariff for "featured b content only" with the more club and sport specific stuff for the full price. It's the sort of thing I'd read for 10 minutes here and there, but not enough to justify paying £10 a month for an app.

Want £ back. . Signed up for trial week on basis of paying £4.99 per month. Was notified yesterday that £59 was taken from my account. I thought I would be paying monthly. Also you get an annoying amount of alerts from the app, but when there is one for an article that sounds interesting if you tap it to take a look you are dumped into list/menu screen and not the article you want to read. You then have to scroll through loads of stuff you don't want to see to find the article in the alert.

Generally good, but having no media controls outside the app on Android is a real frustration when listening to podcasts. I don't want to have to return to the app every time I would like to pause a pod. Update: The Athletic have charged me for a new subscription even though my account says I don't have one. The customer service email is automated so I can't get an actual response it seems - I just get a message saying there are no refunds. I can't afford the £60.
