Old Match-day Programs

[GMD]

Have 30 or so match day programs..........so yea, what should i do with them now?!?!

[Joe DiMaggio]

Eh...keep them if you want to or bin them if you don't!

Not really a major dilema that you need to seek advice for!

[12th Man]

Phone the citizens advice, they will give you up to the minute info.

The same situation happened to me once but every case is different, so I cant really guide you on what to do but if you arrange to see an adviser they may lead you in the right direction.

Good luck.

Well you could pile them in yr loft and leave them there for several yrs and then take them out and reminise. Well thats what I did lately anyhow as I found a pile of old Caley pre merger in my loft.

I used to buy one every home match but they're expensive so I only really by them for cup games so now I have loads in my spare room. I just keep them and occasionally read them to bring back memories.

10 possibilities for you:

- swap them for shares in The News of the World.

- take them apart and them put them back together in a random order to make "30 or so" strange/abstract programs.

- exchange each one for an item of confectionery worth no more than 74p and see what sweet treats you end up with.

- place them inside the hymn books of your local church to help those who attend get through a Sunday service after an excessive Saturday night.

- take them apart and wallpaper a single wall in your bathroom with the pages.

- use them to give reading lessons to c*unty fans.

- put them in a pile, cling film them together real tight and use the resulting firm brick type object to stand on to reach items on the top shelf.

- hide them in your local neighbourhood and then create a treasure map with clues to find each one in date order.

- develop altzhiemers or demenia so you forget all the details then you can give yourself a fresh football treat every time you read them.

- glue several pages together, then cut them into squares to make a series of assorted ICT beer mats.

The choice is yours really, do whatever your heart desires!

Buy a cheap cabinet from the DIY/Furniture shop with a nice glass door and some internal lighting and display them and any other memorabilia you might have in it ..... thats what I do with my ICT and TFC stuff that I have in our basement (my "man cave" as it were)..... it looks pretty good.

I also persuaded the missus to let me put up a 'shadow box' on the wall containing my signed (actual) first-team shirt from the Feb8-2000 game and surround it with a few other bits in other (smaller) frames - my program from that game, my ticket from that game, a couple of other tickets from Hearts cup game at Tynie as well as Hampden tickets ... and another big frame with the "SuperCaleyGoBallistic...." headline from the paper and a poster from the Feb8 game ..... looks good.

Stop teasing the boy, when you have 50 you can exchange them for 100 rep points (green dots) here:-

Rep point exchange

Keep collecting and you get credit at the club shop.

think i could swap an old programme for new ones at the home games, just tell the kid selling them i bought one it it's not todays one?!!? it might just work.

think i will just leave buying them anymore, not as if there is any essential information in them. the aberdeen one i got was quite clever they did it for 3 games and had lots of features and was almost a mini magazine.

[PullMyFinger]

The beer mats idea was the best.

I cant remember where I saw this - think it was SPL site but cannot find it now - but I think Aberdeen have won "SPL Programme of the Year" every season for quite a few years ....
