Thanks Hopping Mad. They look like really decent issues.

Immensely frustrating to think that this effort is beyond many pro clubs.

I'd post a pic of Thornhill's programme - match specific covers look really good - but, unfortunately, no matter how small I make the image, the forum software won't play nicely.

[Celtic Roosters]

Thanks for your hard work putting a list together Hopping Mad but I'm concentrating on non league football now, until next season, apart from watching Swinton because I have a season ticket and they have printed programmes. The rest of RL is too "hit and miss" for me with regard to programmes.

just a slight update to Batley programmes , none printed for Bradford game a few weeks ago may have had their 

[Mumby Magic]

I dont think to look anymore. Bought Sheffields last year and still have Swinton snd Sheffield to get to this season.

[robins up north]

Whitehaven issued a one off programme for the game V Barrow on the 21st August. Celebrating 75 years since their first game. 

[THE RED ROOSTER]

Cracking programme for the England v Tonga First Test. Almost like the good old days
