That's the way forward Matt, "In House" publication's to cut down on printing cost's..........
Carlisle United (with a fanbase of aprox. 5500 ) used to use the Cornwall firm "O Publishing" who do the "Matchday Magazine" for a number of football, RL and RU sides, this season though they have cut the programme size to 16 pages and the price from £3 to £1.....early season sales are reportedly up 250 - 300 % and Carlisle estimate they will save in the region of £4000 plus in printing costs over the season.....great having a match day programme as good as any in SL or football but like any business decision it as to be cost effective and as we can't generate sales to cover even 400 progs per game then perhaps a rethink might be in order. Rather have a scaled down version of " The Centurion" than none at all.

Ivebeen asked about 30 times up to now.

Ah i see, hope you didn't say i was the ugly one.

My name is Ian C to

We cannot help having good names can we.

I did ask your Stew if you were in the north stand on Thursday, but he said you were in the West stand, i was going to introduce myself.

Thanks guys. As I say, I've absolutely no feel for what the Club wants to do about a programme next season. There's plenty time for that decision to be made. I wish we could come up with a way of making the programme (more) profitable - although getting more people into the stadium would help!

As for all the work, I would like to emphasize that there are a lot of contributors, who make the magazine what it is. On here, I would particularlry like to thank Dave Parkinson, whose output for each edition is incredible. I also owe a huge debt of thanks to Wayne Keegan and Maurice Jones, for their excellent action photos - as they say, 'One picture is worth a thousand words'!
