If you want the programme its for sale at http://www.footballzone.co.uk/.....97_110_230 I cant speak specifically about the price here but in general that site does seem to price programmes rather expensively in my experience.

The match was played to mark the 50th Anniversary of Halifax Town AFC (1911-1961), played on Thursday, November 16th 1961.
The result was 1-1. Belgrade's goalscorer was Samardic.
The Belgrade team was: Krivokuca, Popov, Gavric, Milovanovic, Sijakovic, Antic, Popov, Samardic, Milosev, Cebinac, Skoblar.
The programme for the match normally sells for about £2-£3 on ebay when it appears. Its not that rare and turns up quite often

Thank you very much. I found ticket from taht match on E bay last week.
But, I was surpriced so much:
in Red Star evidence + every statistics what I saw (I saw a lot) that match are not registered. It was one day after match in Edinburgh.
So, I am very happy to find ticket and information from you.
Thank you very much.
