Guys this is £30+ on ebay already.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2807.....1423.l2649

Nobody who went to the game saw it.

I'm guessing but the seller is most likely not in Cyprus but in Holland and has produced similiar items for Greek Europa League games.

I'm not doubting anything you say Gary, infact you're probably right, but then again it isn't an actual programme, it's as stated isn't it....an advertising flyer for the game?

Printed on a pc in Holland and sold from there.

I don't collect Scottish programmes btw and have no interest except hate to see collectors ripped off.

The members feedback page confirms that the registered account is from the Netherlands and not Cyprus, the ''item location'' which appears on the ebay listing as Cyprus can be manually changed very easily whilst making out the listing.

I can only back-up what Gary has said.

I was in Larnaca and never saw anything like this (the seller claims it was available in shops and was advertising the game - with team line ups???) and neither did the half dozen or so collectors in attendance find anything resembling this.

The only thing that was available was a programme I did to raise funds for a Tartan Army charity. There were 100 copies printed and lugged out to Cyprus, and all sold.

There was no official programme printed.

Well it didn't go much higher but someone has been stung for a worthless piece of tat.
