I had a look at a few programmes last night to see if we could maybe adopt aspects from them.

MK Dons did a smaller issue for their Johnstone's Paint Trophy match with Charlton in August. It was a 32 page issue and £2. From the programmes I've got, this is possibly the best option I've spotted so far.

Hi

I think most conference fans were very deeply saddened to hear what happened to Dale who was a very well respected keeper. I was very generous when i donated for the programmes i purchased but if they go well i will gladly donate further.

When we arrived yesterday we were not expecting a programme but were full of praise for the efforts of the persons involved in working a short miracle and what is vey good reading.

I was certainly impressed with the way the Kidderminster fans respected the presentation from Dale's parents - and they were generous with their applause for the Youth Team as well.

I too thought the response of the Kidderminster fans was first class. They always seem to have been a decent bunch and I can't remember any trouble with them, which is why I was surprised there were so many police in the ground which must have cost us a large amount. Surely it could have been left to our stewards in this situation.

You weren't at Aggborough that time when we were in a segregated end, and the Harriers fans threw all sorts of shit over the fence at us, including bottles and coins. Security did nothing.

No I wasn't aware of that, I've been there 2 or 3 times without any sign of a problem.

In fairness to the genuine Kiddy supporters, I think the scum element at Aggborough that day were actually West Brom fans who occasionally go along for some of the bigger games with the sole intent of causing trouble.

We received prior warning for Monday's game that some of these idiots were likely to attend, hence the increased police presence, and why Strikers was initially only going to be open to home fans. I'm glad they did a U-turn, and as far as I'm aware there was no trouble this time around.
