I went to the Lincoln Alfreton FA Cup replay on Tuesday night. There was no programme issued, Club stating they did not have time to produce a programme.

Can anyone let me know if clubs are supposed to produce match programmes, something in the back on my minds says they should be produced for all League and cup games.

Grateful if anyone could shed light on this issue

Hi Rob.

I am pretty sure all clubs have to produce a programme of some sorts. From my experience of producing programmes for Wolves Women when we play a WFA Cup tie we have to produce a programme. It may be that Lincon got away with only producing a teamsheet - in the Women's game that is sometimes sufficent.

Hope this is of help.

Taken from the FAs Rules for the FA Cup 2011

'17. PROGRAMME
A Programme or Team Sheet must be produced for spectators with details of both teams.'

So It would seem that at least a teamsheet should have been produced and available.
