Title: Cambridge Swindon programmes wanted
Post by: Bedford Red on Tuesday, May 14, 2019, 16:26:09
I'm looking for a programme from the matches away at Cambridge in March 2018 and April 2019.

If anyone has one they no longer want/require; please let me know, happy to pay a decent price.

Try the Cambridge United local rag reporter, Aaron Mason, he's a Swindon fan.

Wish I'd bought two now.  Sorry...but I have a programme for every Town game I've ever been to, so can't part with mine from last month.  :(

Does that include first team friendlies?

No, i collect league/cup only, although pick up friendlies if i can. I have team sheets for the Portsmouth/WBA friendlies as programmes weren't produced for those games.

Worth giving Cambridge a call just on the off chance they keep spares or know someone who does?

I have loads of programmes in my attic and have often wondered if they were worth anything.

There are progs worth money, but your bog standard have little value.... anything really early is worth something in decent nick.

I liked the ones in the late 60s or early 70s that featured caricatures of players. I used to copy them - the Joey Butler one was my fav.

The Wiltshire football programme & memorabilia fair is held in the Legends' every Jan or Feb. Some fab programmes there from the 30s onwards.

It's a good event to go to, even if to reminisce with fellow fanatics.

I well remember going into the old club shop down the side of where the CG hotel is and buying programmes from other clubs as well as town ones that were from home and away games.

Or own club shop stocks all the home ones and a few away, sadly it is now closed for the close season!

Try their forum. Bound to be somebody on there who would have one.

There are still several programme dealers operating on the Internet.    Many still have catalogues/lists that can be trawled through.  I appreciate it may be time consuming and asking on here is an obvious place to start, however,  when all else fails ......
