robins up north Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Bradford are issuing a newspaper programme this season. I have two Wigan newspaper programme's from 71/72 season. Have any other clubs produced this type of programme over the years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradford Northern Forever Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I know of three Salford, Oldham and Wakefield that did a newspaper one similar to Wigan's in the early 70's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradford Northern Forever Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Hi, The wakefield newspaper i think was a one season 1972/73 production which I am after v Bradford, I think the Wigan publication was for just the one season 71/72 as was the Salford 71/72 and Oldham 72/73. Hope this helps you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robins up north Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 Thanks I collect Hull KR,I know what I'm looking for. My next post will be single sheets for when the Sunday games started I'm sure it was to do with the law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next post will be single sheets for when the Sunday games started I'm sure it was to do with the law? Yes. 1967 was when it started. To get round the Sunday trading laws entrance to the match was free but you had to buy a teamsheet which cost the price of ground admission. Most clubs did this in the early years. Fev continued with that up to 1974. Quite separate to the match programmes which were sold as normal. https://www.fevarchive.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robins up north Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 I,ve only got a couple of single team sheets from early 70s. When did Sunday games start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marklaspalmas Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Early 1968 was the first Fev one. I think Salford were the first a week or two earlier. Fev used to number their sheets and got up to about 100 before it stopped, presumably because the archaic laws finally changed. https://www.fevarchive.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
