Programmes
 

hi , went to chester game and i went to get a programme and they had sold out!:eek: Does anyone know where the programme could be available from or is anyone selling one?

Re: Programmes
 

People where buying loads of them, probably dealers but it did come over the tannoy, if you send a stamped addressed envelope and £2.50 to the club BEFORE wednesday they are getting more printed and will post one out to you, this'll stop people from making big profits from the programmes :) :)

Re: Programmes
 

ur not the only one :D , dont know why they all gone really?:S

Re: Programmes
 

they had sold out before 2.30 :(

Re: Programmes
 

I bought two. One for me and one for a mate. The woman said that at the rate they were selling, it looked as though they were going to become collectors' items.

I'm glad Chester are producing a few more for those that missed out. I'd rather they got they money than dealers on E-bay.

Re: Programmes
 

Yes thats right tin monkey and i know kipax they just went like hot cakes and finished at 2.30 :eek:

Re: Programmes
 

I went into the club shop before 2pm and they had all gone, they told me I "Might" get one inside the ground - I did, but he hadn't got many left.

Re: Programmes
 

at 2pm I was just leaving Accy, good job they're re-printing cos I want one.

And how expensive was that food bar!! two pies, two bottles of coke eight quid

Re: Programmes
 

oo ino , sausage roll , £2.00 , disgusting and the bottles of coke where! 2pm , how you get to game in time , must of gone mad on motorway then?

Re: Programmes
 

they are already on ebay. buy it now for 20 squid :rolleyes:

Re: Programmes
 

Was any passed on to the Club? If the club shop can get hold of a few I’ll have one for a few bob more.

Re: Programmes
 

Is there anyone who managed to get a programme who would be kind enough to weigh it and tell us what the weight and size is, please? Then we can send the right sized envelope with the correct postage.

Thanks.

Re: Programmes
 

24cm X 17cm weight is 91g hope this helps

Re: Programmes
 

The club only produce 1,200 copies of the programme, which is a load of pap full of spelling, grammatical and general errors anyway, and obviously there were 2,500 MORE supporters than programmes. It didn't help that certain people were buying 20, 25 and 50 at a time - clearly non-supporters or either team, and someone is selling copies on Ebay for £20 - what a joke!

Boycott Ebay, and buy directly from Chester City FC for the cover price. I'm sure you have the details on how to do that already, but see our official website for more information - http://www.chestercityfc.net

I hope you all enjoyed your day yesterday, regardless of the result, but to me it seems you're going to struggle with the strength and style of the division IF you continue to play like that. However, it is of course very early days yet! We had ten new signings on the field, with only the Chairman's son (our "captain" and probably our weakest link) starting from last season's team. I thoguht we bossed the first 20 minutes but once we took the lead we let you back into it although I personally felt you didn;t really test our 'keeper.

We seem to be a typical Mark Wright side, very strong at the back with big defenders who look difficult to beat, and we'll be relying on set pieces and narrow wins for most of the season! We won;t concede many but I don't think we'll be taking games 4-0 and 5-0. It has to be said that not ALL teams in the division play like we did yesterday, and there are more cultured sides who knock the ball around well - Wycombe for one. The four teams who have come down from League One will probably be the same. However, teams do need strength in key areas of the park and if you can start winning individual battles you will have a decent season.

As I say, very early days yet so most of my comments are probably pointless but there you go. Enjoy the season.

P.S. I understand one or two weren't quite happy with the entrance prices yesterday. A word of warning, we are just about average for the division.

Re: Programmes
 

cheers for the comments on Sky yesterday. Cheeky gets asking Chester fans to be complimentary about the opposition.

Good luck for the rest of the season and we'll see you at Cardiff in May.

Re: Programmes
 

Heh, funnily enough I was one of those Chester fans! The younger lad, not the old bloke!!

Re: Programmes
 

Thanks for the info. Karma on its way. I reckon the envelope will push it over 100g so, according to the Post Office site, that means a 50p stamp for 2nd class. Chester's site (http://www.chestercityfc.net/article...nley-Programme) gives the address as:

Chester City Football Club
Saunders Honda Stadium
Bumpers Lane
Chester
CH1 4LT

Saw a guy in the car park after the game with half a dozen in his hand, boasting how much he was going to make.

Is it possible to go on ebay & tell people they're £2.50 + p&p from Chester?

On that basis, I hope we're getting enough printed for tomorrow. If dealers turn up just to buy the programmes, what about only selling them inside the ground? That would boost the gate receipts as well.

Re: Programmes
 

Hope your watching this thread Rob and maybe setting a limit of how many can be bought

Re: Programmes
 

Theres nothing to stop you, do it as a 1p start free postage, state clearly it is just an information link, you should grab everyones attention. Don't forget though the offer is only open if you contact the club before Wednesday
Good luck with it

Re: Programmes
 

The more programmes the Club sell the more profit goes to the Club, why not print loads of them and if there are any left the Club can put them on ebay.

Re: Programmes
 

Chester programme turned up this morning. How come a postcard from abroad doesn't arrive as fast ?

Re: Programmes
 

got a letter back today with the cheque returned as they have sold out of the re-print of the programme!!

Now trying to get hold of one on ebay as i collect programms got all from last season and would like to have the same again but doesnt look good

Re: Programmes
 

You can have mine if you want. I've read it! PM me if you're interested.
