Fair enough having A4 programmes for special occasions, but Cardiff are discussing the possiblity of having A4 programmes for all games this season.

They have put it to a vote at http://www.cardiffcitystadium.co.uk/mb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1081 and users can choose between A4 or B5... Both would have a cover price of £3.

What would you vote for?

I have recently picked up two A4 programmes for my away first visits collection (Crewe and Bristol City) and both look tatty and a bit amature. Vote for: Small!

Consistency is always good. Unless there's fundamentally something to dislike about the normal one..

Back in the 60s when every club had different sizes.. things were different!!

I don't like them personally so my vote would be a no but it would certainly make your first season unique programme wise.

A4 are just too big, they will be hard to keep in good condition at the game and it might actually put people off buying them.

I reckon that`s the big point though, some of these household catalogue sized monstrosities are bloody hard to keep in good order, difficult to tuck one of those inside your jacket pocket on a cold tuesday night in Wales.

I wouldn`t go as far as chelsea & west ham (spit) & palace in the 60s, with a small coaster sized programme, but really a programme is something for convenience at the match when all is said, and most these days are pretty handy to roll up (even if a bit bulky) .

I'm glad 'no' is winning the vote.

I personally think A4 sized programmes are a pain in the arse. They are so hard to store with regular sized programmes.
