The poor performance of ''[[The Irish Press]]'', particularly after its unsuccessful relaunch in 1988, was a severe drain on the whole Irish Press Group, and probably damaged the Evening Press brand, although it continued to perform better in the evening newspaper market than its sister paper did in the morning market. It retained a loyal following due in part to the popularity of columnists such as sports writer [[Con Houlihan]], although it struggled to generate advertising revenue. It also featured the world's most prolific cartoonist, ''Till'' (George O'Callaghan) who published nearly 10,000 cartoons in the paper between 1956 and 1992.
Other journalists who worked for the paper were Sean Cronin (sub editor), Matt Farrell
The collapse of Irish Press Newspapers in 1995 however lead immediately to the closure of all three newspapers in the group.
