    Best programme in the league this season?

    And if ye say your own, give your second best one (would also be worth mentioning what programmes ye havent seen this season). I've seen every Premier League teams programme anyway.

    Personally think the cork one was the best one - very professionally done and seems to be good consistently (well ive seen both programmes V drogs and they were both great).

    Drogs one this season looked closedly at last years cork one and tried to rise to the challenge. Honestly thought it would beat the cork one at the start of the season. Has had mostly brilliant issues (with the odd dodgy one here and there) and one or two simple errors that couldve and shouldve been avoided. However I would think it was second only to the cork one. Hopefully the editor stays on and he can push cork that little bit more!!

    Rovers one was my favourite last season. Got one at the Fanad United match this season and thought it was poor. However the programme when they played us (was a double programme with the Hibs match) was first class - couldn't have been better. Not sure if the Fanad like one or the Drogs/ Hibs one was consistently done so hard to give an opinion on how it was over the course of the season.

    Big improvement in shels - deserves a mention.

    i'd agree.

    ours is sh1te. 3 euro. hardly anything to read in it. and players who were long gone were left in the team lineups/pen pictures - maybe just to infuriate the fans futher seeing as some of the departed players were fans favourites.

    still i guess it helps support the club.
    you gowl!

    Didn't see as many of them as usual this season for some reason. There were a lot more double headers though; don't like that - comes across very unprofessional in my opinion.

    Bohs - I missed the game in Dalyer.
    Bray - Did a double header for our League and FAI Cup tie. A bit of content, but not a huge amount.
    Cork - Very good, as we've come to expect.
    Derry - Another good programme, although a lot of it seemed to be robbed from eleven-a-side for the UCD game.
    Drogheda - Can't remember offhand, though I know Cosmo sent me a copy!
    Harps - Didn't see one for our recent game. Usually a good effort though.
    Longford - Nothing much in it. They did a double header for us and a game which was about three weeks previous as well - no excuse for that.
    Pat's - Usually looks better than it is, though again, there was a decent bit of content. Don't recall any UCD slagging, which makes a change!
    Shels - None for the League Cup semi that I saw. Don't remember the League one (only played there once).
    Rovers - Fairly good, though the Su-Hoop-ku contained the most errors per square inch you will ever find!
    UCD - Utter rubbish, unfortunately. Usually only the editorial as content, and sometimes even that was left out.
    Waterford - Nothing in it, as far as I can remember.

    Setanta Cup final program was perhaps the worst program I've ever seen in my life, and after paying for that I bought very few others this season, although I think it was actually produced by Setanta!

    Cosmo apologies about the mix up for the last Drogs program against us, things just went all pear shaped for a varietey of reasons, didn't even get to see the thing in the end!!!
    Sitting pretty!!!

    Ours is the best by miles.
    That's should be obvious to everyone.

    Rovers and Drogs were good this season.
    Was only in Derry the once and didn't get my hands on it, so I can't comment.
    The rest in my experience were average at best.

    Corks followed by us and Drogheda (I refuse to call them drogs).

    I hate double headers and we've that twice this season but understand the financial reasons.

    UCDs on friday wasnt bad considering it was free but had Kieran Foley as a UCD player!

    There's a decision to be made when producing a program. Glossy programs are expensive, which means filling it with adds and less content to pay for it. Black and White programs with a colour cover can have much more content but don't look as good. Personally I prefer content to appearance.

    For me it would be the Drogheda programe, looks fantastic and full of information from start to finish. Cork programme was brutal. Looked great from the outside but not one mention of us in it at all...... Well they did have a team sheet but that it it. They were more concerened about the following weeks Setanta Cup match they had. very unprofessional and showed a lot of disrespect to the Bray players, officals and supporters that made the trip down

    How much co-operation did the lads who produce the programme get from Bray?

    EVERY other team in the league gets full pen pics, and almost always an article, but there has to be co-operation for that.
    Amazing that it is by far the best in the league for 2 seasons running, and will win it again, but the boy from Bray claims it is "brutal"....
    You'd certainly know all about brutal programmes up in Wicklow.....

    Was just about to say the same myself and i am a Bray fan. We use to have a great programme as far back as the late eighties but now it's a joke.

    Dundalk's -easily the best in the First and I'd say it would give any premier one a run for its money

    Don't think so, we have never had a great programme.

    Cork officals even apoligesed for the programme and lack of info etc.....

    Cork, followed by Drogheda.

    Think ours is one of the better ones too.

    Premier: didn't see Cork/Harps/Longford this season. Drogheda was excellent, Rovers+Pats good, Bohs,Shels+Derry all ok, UCD rubbish, Bray poor, Waterford pathetic.
    First: Dundalk's was great and up there with top 3 or 4 in the Premier. (I would say that!) pity about the lack of issues for the games in Monaghan and the last 2 games of the season. Didn't see Sligo or Cobh. Limerick very poor, Mons+Athlone+Galway poor, CHF+Kildare fair.
