I have one in my collection in the loft. As soon as I’m up to a bit of loft clambering, I’ll retrieve it and it’s yours.

Totally agree - in the early years money was spent on it to keep it that way but sadly when times were hard it was deemed a non essential expense.

That would be Great Dave, Thank You. I'll pay you for it, if you don't want any money for it, I'll give the money to Charity.

I don’t want anything, but if you want to chuck a couple of quid in the Supporters Club coffers, every little helps!

Dave - while you're up in the attic can you fish me out a programme for Rochdale against Queens Park Rangers on the 7th October 1958, in the old Third Division. Finney, Milburn, Cooper and Jock Wallace were playing for them that season, and they finished bottom and were relegated!

Thanks

I've got an old Rangers programme from the WW2 that my dads uncle gave me, I've always thought it was quite valuable but it's probably not.

I’m afraid AP got to the 1958 section before I could hide them, and he threw them all down an active volcano.
