TheBaldOne66 702 Posted April 10, 2023 But how is Zoe going to tell us how well the club is run? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Pete 1,925 Posted April 10, 2023 My dad always buys a programme. Then realises he's forgotten his glasses, so can't read it until he gets home. Moving to a digital version just means he will buy it the day before, and then forget to take his phone instead. Don't ever get old. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soldier on 168 Posted April 10, 2023 Thought we were trying to maximise match day income. Do they not generate any profit these days ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends how many they sell vs what they cost to produce. I'm sure costs are rising and less people purchasing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naturalcynic 677 Posted April 11, 2023 I haven’t bought a programme in years. In pre-interweb times there might have been some point in having one but these days what do they tell you that you can’t find out elsewhere? That said, I used to find the fanzines of the 80s and 90s were a good read and were far more entertaining than the official glossy brochure. Going back further, does anyone remember the “Football League Review” that used to be enclosed with every programme? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,303 Posted April 11, 2023 I assume (here's hoping) that as I currently receive an included in my ST price 'complimentary' programme on home game match-days. That if the club do terminate production of printed 'hard copy' programmes for next season? Then the price of my season ticket should also be reduced?......(At half-time I don't go and queue for my complimentary 'oink' 'squeal' biccies and beverage - but that's my personal choice).....

Mrs Beard will be very happy indeed. Much the same here - though with a fairly large number of randoms from sides more local to me. I still buy a programme and would be sad to see them go, though do barely ever read them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
