    They must be worth something , as there is a lot of club history in those. Hang on to them.

    Hi Victor - not as much as you would imagine. Even adding in my 1966 World Cup Memorabilia (including both tickets, (unused) tie, rosette, etc), I was 'only' quoted £1,000 - £1,300.

    I'm keeping them <cheers>

    When these programmes were published must have been when football was played with five forwards up front, a half back line of three, and two fullbacks. ... I wonder if a lot more goals were scored then ?
