Question of the week Edition 7

[laticdickovarmy]

Good morning all,

 

After a week of due to the amount of threads on here thought would produce this weeks poll

 

This week its all about the programmes at BP and away matches

 

So do you buy a matchday progammes and do you feel they are value for money and same for the away days

[BP1960]

Don't buy one, I can get all the info I want now on my smartphone, including team line ups.

Anyone remember the 1960s Boundary Bulletin ?..now that was what I call a programme.

[Tommy_Fent]

I used to, but only to really read the managers comments and I don't think it's worth £3 anymore because of the amount of news reported on the official website

I decided against programmes a few days back going 18 or so games x£3 at £54 a season I would rather use on a pie or a pint a game

I like to buy them but i answered no because more often than not when i'v bought my ticket that's my money gone for the day. I like to keep football as cheap as possible, especially because i'm always skint and i don't like feeling ripped off. I can get over 20 quid for a ticket because that's the best the club can do without losing even more money but if you throw in program, pie and pint you're closer to 30 quid and a lot of the time you are going to see a 1 nil loss for that 30 quid.

I don't buy them - not worth it.

 

Would pay a quid or so a game for wifi access though.

I don't buy programmes at home or away. I do buy the fanzines at away ground though for a read on the train home. The Leyton Orient one this season was superb, Wycombe's not so great. Why don't we have one? (We probably did to be fair, just before my time)

[oafcmetty]

We used to - Beyond the Boundary, and after that Mouldy Old Dough. BtB was great, MoD not so much.

I am the same, even if I just get to ten games a season that's still £30 which I could spend on going to another.

 

The info in a programme now is, I would imagine, available elsewhere. News, manager's comments, news about the away side, stats, interviews with players etc. When I used to collect programmes (and I did for every game I went to until I was 18 or so) I didn't really have an interest/awareness in fanzines. I would now probably get one if it was available at BP.

[Monty Burns]

I cant afford to buy anything at a game after ive paid to get in, nevermind £3 for a programme!!!

[bossrocks]

Not only is the info in the programme available elsewhere, its usually quite out of date too - they're not very good value for money. I'd rather buy food or keep my money.
