Fair enough, but continuation surely! Yez got profiles off me last time, so I don't see why you couldn't have contacted me this time...as much your fault as ours (asuming you contacted someone else who didn't reply) I'm afraid.Quote:

Apparently some of the artwork was screwed up as well, but it ain't going to be getting much better by the sounds of it. We (the Supporters' Club, who did the programme the last two years) pointed out that content-wise the new prorgamme sounds, well, crap, but they don't really mind about that.
Cork's programme on Friday was a double for the Bray (league) & Shels (Setanta cup on Monday). Very professional and good except for the fact that there is nothing about Bray in it. Shels are featured. All programmes should have something about the visitors. Still trying to figure out what Damien Richardson's article is all about.
i shelled out 2 euro for that, never againQuote:

I guarantee, if I am still involved with City Edition, that this will not happen again for your next visit in September. Incidentally, there is no more helpful club to deal with in the country than Bray for supplying programme-related material.
We also had to pull back another article when certain official + Setanta stuff had to be included - we found out about this on Tuesday evening, just a few hours before wrap-up...

Got your programme v cork in cup last season and content wise i thought it was very good for a 1st division club - programme on friday was an embarrassment
Why the Cork game? Were you not at the Drogs game? I know you get around the grounds, but even still! :)Quote:

I think that our programme has come on leaps and bounds this last few years - we've got colour this year and as a result the price has gone up to €2.50.
We have the usual stuff like the chairman's welcome, manager's page, club stats, league stats and ads. Also we have a look back at old games with that night's opponents and profile the away team's players. Also, an interview with someone past or present connected with the club and then Harping On which is a fan's view of the latest happenings and then for the grand finale ;) my own piece - a season diary.
From this week on, the programme will be extended by 4 pages, taking it to 36.
'Why the Cork game? Were you not at the Drogs game? I know you get around the grounds, but even still!'
Haha, can't remember the programme from the drogs game (not even sure if I got one - mightnt have- , though I probably had a good few drinks on me for that one and lost it ;) )
Got your fanzine on friday but didnt even get a chance to look at the cover - lost it within 5 minutes :mad:

looking forward to seing the drogs one after all I've heard about it. If its nearly as good as City Edition, it'll be a damn good readQuote:

Every club should be trying to communicate with the fans and a programme is probably the single best way of doing so as not everyone is on the net.
Yeah, Pat's programme looks like a decent enough effort. Good info and varied enough articles that don't just look like bland club propaganda though not much on the opposing team. The 3 Euro is a bit steep though.Quote:

Catch 22 isn't it? We moan about lack of finances for clubs yet the prices for these programmes are extortion.Quote:
