Hi new to this site and the community here looks fantastic.


I collect Rangers programmes and that is about it these days in terms of actively seeking out programmes, currently trying to fill in the gaps of my European aways games. The very first programme I remember having was the 1967 Cup Winners Cup Final that my Uncle gave to me, and since my Dad is a programme collector too I have been hooked since. I hope to one day own a complete post war, home and away, in all competitions, Rangers programmes set. Then if money allows pre war away games and friendlies that were produced.

I have also recently started buying Rangers away European game tickets on eBay, I will see where this goes as programmes are my main thing.

At present my collection has a very significant range of New Zealand domestic games, which I seem to be the only person who actually collects these things over here, and have really stopped as they no longer really interest me as I want to channel everything into Rangers collections.

What I do have is a small range of very rare New Zealand based games against British touring sides. Cardiff City, The English FA XI, England B, Wolves, Middlesbrough, QPR, Newcastle etc. and am tempted to sell them off in order to fund my collection pursuits, and want to sell them to fans of these clubs preferably.

Looking for the Blades against

Taranaki 1.6.75
Noumea 5.6.75 & 7.6.75

and any between Blackpool & Sheffield United (11 matches) at various New Zealand venues May & June 1965

Regards SB

Now then robbo,

just writing my appo for Speedy's Job, now he's heading off to the Valleys. I am currently 146th in the Daily Star fantasy football, so I think that could swing it.

Likewise I have got the Welly & Otago programmes, have seen Taranaki but haven't got it. Got the BOAC brochure programme, but there's one or two seperate one's, there's also the odd insert from some of the games as well.

Keep the faith, SB

[robbo]

Time i came back home & sorted the job, first thing is to remove all signs of pork... bloody ellis is the first for the chop, never liked him since i bought a packet of football cards in woodseats back in the mid sixties, never has a lad been more frightened upon opening his bubble gum. A face that launched a thousand "shites!".

If megson gets the nod, 3rd tier it is then.

Thanks for the info matey, i`ll keep looking!

[sharrowblade]

That's quality.

Got to agree about sammy boy, not just that he's blue & white, but like Speedy when they got rid of Blacky, nothing changed, it was all still the same set up. To be honest they have so many coaches and assistants, I don't know what they all do.

Megson is never going to happen on three accounts, and it's nothing to do with his ability as a manager.

1. He's Wednesday.
2. The Battle of Bramall Lane.
3. He's ginger.

All the best SB
