Daniel1875 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Anyone else a bit miffed to find the match programme cost the same price as a child ticket this evening? I can understand £5 for the big glossy a4 jobs they put together for the qualifiers against like likes of Germany and Poland, but a fiver for a friendly programme? If I didn't have the programme in my hand by the time the seller asked me for the money I might not have bothered. And I hear the Czechs were handing them out for free in Prague on Thursday!

Most European countries gie them away SFA money makin machine kicks in as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember the last time I was handed a programme for free in uk football. Maybe they aren't very popular in Europe,so it's not worth charging for. This just seems like a post that gives you an excuse to try and bash the sfa. Utterly ridiculous. Same as everything,if you don't like the product,don't buy it. Simple really,people just need to get this way of thinking into their thick heads,you should try and go to a game and enjoy yourself,instead of trying to find fault and complain about anything you can.

braveheart_lynch Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I collect all the programmes from games I've been to and if it weren't for that I would not be paying. There isn't even a lot of content to make it worth the money, every second page an advert or big photograph. Pretty disappointed as Qatar was back to usual £3.

Collect programmes from each Scotland game I go to. £5 is a nonsense for what it is, pictures, adverts and a few worthwhile articles.

scottincarlisle Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 The programmes are too big in size now. A5 size is fine to carry about or slip in somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 £5 expensive but still doubt sfa making any money. Ask most clubs and they will tell you programmes dont make money but usually lose club cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
