  • Programmes £3.50 next season...

    That's it for me... Not paying that for a programme...

    If you've already stopped buying them what was your final price?

    If you haven't, how much are you willing to go up to?

    £3.00 - I stopped last season. My son used to read them then stopped so we gorge on chocolate bars after now.
    Slightly less healthy but still.

      'We stopped last season too - they're a good read but I'd rather have another pint

        i've never actually bought a programme to begin with .

        i guess its because everything i need to know about is mentioned online now anyway as its a different age for being a fan

          Easier to recycle the pint too.

            I buy the programmes and read them on the way home. I've got a bit of a collection going on, I like seeing them build up over a season. I've always been a bit obsessive about collecting reading material.

                prefer to spend it on AKUTR's. Apparently programmes are now out of fashion, Won't be long before you don't have the choice anyways
                I must away now, I can no longer tarry
                This morning's tempest I have to cross
                I must be guided without a stumble
                Into the arms I love the most

                  I used to buy them in the 60 and 70’s, but haven’t bought one in 30 odd years now, and today, it’s all on line anyway.
                  I have supported Rangers for 55 seasons, since March 1969.

                      Always get a programme but to be honest they could revert to the retro 70’s style perhaps a 12pp A5 size and cut price to 2.00? Make it more collectible again. Doesn’t need to be 48pp.

                        Yep, finals and big games are different. I also always buy England programmes and paid £35 for a first edition copy of the one issued in Turin back in 2015 as I didn't get one over there: few did which is why it had a second publication.

                          They should do a digital copy for a quid or 2. I'd happily buy and download it at home before heading out to the match.

                            Tbh I personally don't buy programmes anyway, but £3.50 isn't unreasonable at all in my mind?

                            Less than a pint of beer, and as others have said, programmes at venues like Wembley etc are 3 or 4 times that price. Considering the work that evidently goes into the programme, really don't think £3.50 is a lot.
                            You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
