Has anybody seen 'tonight's' programme? What a joke.

They're not gonna fork out another however many hundred quid it costs to reprint a full programme with a couple of changes to be fair.

The only thing about the flyer was someone at the club had managed to turn Scotty's interview notes on the site, from Saturday's game, into more comprehensible English!! (not by much mind!!)

It was a reduced price for the original programme + the four page cover which included an updated version of Still and Doe's notes alongside an updated league table and last five results for both clubs.

The only pieces (from memory) that would have been significantly out of date were notes from John Gowens, club news, the away travel page which may have been Tranmere and the National League news, which, although out of date, probably still contains information that people would otherwise not have heard about. Aside from that, the content remains stable regardless of when the programme is produced (1 to XI, oppo fan, traveller's tales etc). The Bromley player profiles would not have changed noticeably and even the write-ups on Bromley themselves would still be relevant. So when you look at it, it's really not that bad.

In an ideal world you'd reprint the entire thing, but the loss you'd make on that would be far too significant to even consider doing.

I haven't purchased a programme for years, but this was always standard procedure for rescheduled game (having a current 4 pager added to the original programme), and I'm surprised anyone would expect anything else.
