The SFA continue to extract the urine. First tickets prices, followed by a £5 programme.

Where once the B5, 60-70 pager for £3 was the staple for years, were were faced with an A4, 90-odd pager for £5 at the Georgia game.

Too big, too expensive and I bet a lot left unsold.

The old programme seller at the match yesterday had a big box full of them, never saw anyone buying any.

Aye, the one I bought it from was getting a bit exasperated telling fowk he only sold them and didn't set the price!

It's a decent enough programme, but the size and the price is just ridiculous.

Just received my copy as did not go due to costs etc..

I am not a fan of these big glossy editions. Nothing there that could not be put into the standard size that has been used for last 70 years. I suppose justifying price rise

Sadly I think it's just another excuse to fleece fans and maximise income by the SFA. They have no morals.

The B5, 68 pagers of many years were good value at £3. A4/£5 is taking the pish.
