This is probably going to sound to sound like a daft question but I collect Cardiff Met programmes as well as Welsh Domestic Finals.

With Cardiff Met having reached the Welsh League Cup Final, would anyone buy 2 programmes to satisfy both collections or just have the 1 programme covering both?

This subject has been debated before but I cannot find the thread.

Difficult question buddy, I guess the answer is whichever option satisfies you.

I've bought two of the same badge before now to pop into two different collections. But it's only something I'd do providing we are only talking the price of a pint or so.

Wouldn't spend anything more hefty doing that.

It's each to their own on this one to be fair.

That said, I have purchased duplicate programmes to put in my Spurs collection as my originals had been signed by players when I was a kid hanging around after matches. The signed stuff goes in a different collection now.

Like Wiggy, I wouldn't be duplicating if it was big money items though.

As I collect across quite a wide spectrum, several of my programmes fall into 2 categories and so for me it's 2 copies, one for each 'collection.' If you only have one copy, then another 'collection' is still missing one to my completist way of thinking, but each to his own!

Thanks for all your responses. It shouldn't be more than a couple of pounds so it will be 2 programmes for me as I'm firmly in the 'one collection would be incomplete' camp!

How's this then.
I get a programme from games I go to (1), also collect Leyton Orient (2) as well as Haringey Borough (3), 1st season as non-league club (4).
So to keep all collections up to date I need at least 3 and a fourth one if I go on the 16th.
No ifs or buts, it's just my way. Just glad they're playing now and not in the final, that's another one!

I would have a programme each if it wasn't too expensive for both collections although I think there is no need, one programme ticks the box for both collections.

Must admit, like Five said earlier, when I used to collect programmes, if one was autographed, I'd always seek out a clean copy of the same game too.

Take it you will be searching out a 'half and half' scarf on the 16th?

Nice one. If our chairman could have organised it he would have done!
