Does anyone actually buy programmes these days.

Notice on. Tuesday night they were selling them at £1.50

Got programmes for every game I’ve been to since about 89/90, Coventry and Exeter games. Always read them when I get home. Pull out the old ones every now and again for a read. Don’t generally get programmes for games I miss.

Think there's an EFL rule that you have to produce a programme for some odd reason.

I buy them if its a 'big' away game, got a few stashed away. Used to buy them at home but at the Ricoh it could be hard to find someone selling them.

Wish I'd collected them/kept my old ones. That said, it is the very old programmes that have a 'magic' feel about them - they feel special for some reason. Can imagine they are real pain to store if you've kept them all over the years (plus a few annoyed partners!)

We won best programme in league 1 last year, and league 2 before that. Compared to other programmes in this league, ours is world class. I still always buy them and enjoy reading them, I loved the style they had last year and this year's is v nice too.

Yeah, the £1.50 one was basically a poster with a fixture list on the back (now on lad’s bedroom wall getting filled in every week with scores, motm etc).

Used to get them all the time but they all just end up gathering dust stashed away somewhere. Just buy the odd one when we go away now.

I buy a programme for whatever sporting event I'm attending be it footy, stock cars, greyhounds etc etc. Started at HR in 1966 and have got hundreds stashed away. When SISU pull the plug, my ccfc ones are going to be worth a fortune to some yet to be thought of descendent...

Got loads in the loft from when I started going up to about the age of 14 plus a load my uncle had from the 60/70/80's. Got a few special ones (Cup Final, HR/Ricoh) but don't get them now - just keep the tickets. Used to be useful cos you could read about new signings etc and they would actually provide news on the club. Once we got teletext you knew all the stuff in it already, then with the internet and SM it's just not necessary. More for the youngsters as it's a memento IMO.

Yes I always buy one.
I have 20+ for every season back to 72/73 plus odd ones from before that.
I found the Bayern Munich one (with a match ticket inside) only recently.
One day I intend to find a programme fair somewhere, take a weekend break, and take all but a few special ones to sell.
