Good effort, loved the glossy feel and classic photos.

Could one extension of the idea be to include pull outs of e.g. posters/player photos from the centre ?
Just wonder if it might boost sales if fans can e.g. collect their players photos or past games etc ?
When the kid in front of me (bless him) didn't know who Ross Hannah was it made me wonder.

Looks like a lot of the articles (some of which I DO enjoy very much) are past memories aimed at older folk.
I guess they've/we've! got more dosh to spend but do wonder if e.g. a fanzine or shorter version aimed at the young could be put out.
Guess you'd be struggling to sell many if the price didn't drop like a stone but might it spark interest straight into the club shop or Dad's wallet?

For content, always enjoy the player bits + info you don't see elsewhere.
Not overly keen on "Guess the team" from 2001 but guess a knowledgable few will enjoy having a go.

Thought it was ironic a lot of the things S&H said in there...
"What we have seen from the lads is their ability to bounce back when things haven't got right for them and we will be looking for a response to Tuesdays result today."
+
"We had a quick talk about it. We said the facts are their keeper pulled off 5 or 6 good saves, on another day you'd score. Let that be a lesson if you don't take chances you don't win games."

Always like seeing comments quickly re-inforced and put right !

Was confused over something JF said in "The Boardrooom".
"In reality, being in this division, as well as Leagues One and Two, will see quite substantial losses year in, year out and, going forward, we will need to experience better football fortune if we are to cut our cloth accordingly."

Shouldn't it be "if we aren't to cut our cloth accordingly." ?
I guess it's just a typo/print error ?

My views of it is that it has got many spelling mistakes in it, like it usually has a couple of seasons ago i counted 26 spelling mistakes on 1,page, and it hasnt improved much either

Did you write it?

Haha years back (late 90's) it was a decent thing to buy along with the matchday ticket. I think it was £1.50 - £2 and well worth it. Fun interviews with players, great insight into the youth set ups etc.

I think it is a bit over proced now considering ticket prices are what they are.

Maybe they could do some sort of "bundle" offer, programme & pie or a programme & drink for  for £X

They always seem to lose when I buy a programme so being the superstitious sort I haven't bought one for a while.

The best programme I've seen at this level (or the one above) by a mile.
