Saw this listing on ebay a couple of weeks ago for Wigan programmes

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Over.....2a2eb6330b

I know it says league programmes but the seller also has some pre-league ones so may know one way or the other if the one you want exists, maybe worth contacting them.

I can confirm that programmes exist for the matches played at Barnet, Oxford City and Yeovil as I have these in my own collection. I have never seen advertised a programme from the Wigan v South Shields match.

[pugwash]

Have seen pictures of the Barnet programme and the Yeovil programme...does anyone have a pic of the Oxford City v Bournemouth so I know what I'm looking for....Abandoned hope on the Wigan programme...These are the programmes that I'm still looking for and will pay a good price if I can get you to part with them....

Not sure if you did contact the seller on ebay about the Wigan v South Shields programme through the link I posted so I did on your behalf and just got this reply from him:

The replay was played on nov 23 and 100% certain there was no programme or team sheet printed .... I've a history of Wigan programmes and know I'm correct. Cheers

I have come across today in a job lot that I purchased a South Shields v Wigan Athletic Programme 21/11/1970 F.A.Cup First Round Proper on the front cover, no writing and water marked,if you're interested let me know.

I collected FA Cup programmes a few years back and from memory, there were just two games involving NL sides from Round 1 onwards between 1960 and 1991 that failed to produce.

1961-62 Barnsley v West Auckland or replay, can't recall which one.

1972-73 Bilston v Barnet.
