Great to hear

I saw you posting a request just recently, and I remember thinking I've seen that request numerous times, it's so obscure you're unlikely to ever find one. So I'm delighted to see you did

I picked it up of Ebay there was only me and one other bidder I won the bidding for £6.50 I was willing to pay a lot more than that a lot more, its in great condition also for a single sheeter small pin hole No writing at all... So pleased.

[pafcprogs]

Think thats great.....to get for so much less than you would have paid...mind you factor in the hours of chasing it and it cost you an arm and a leg

So is that it? No more programmes to chase?

You should have mentioned it before as i have a couple of those. (Ha Ha)
Seriously though, well done. It just shows that eventually things do happen to turn up. I have been looking for the Bexley v Barnet programme for longer, but you never know, one day.

Bee I had been looking for three Kettering programmes of which the Wellingborough one was one of them for over ten years pluss and then within a couple of days I picked up two of them amazing, I guess that's what makes this hobby of ours so enjoyable.

The Bexley v Barnet programme is the only Barnet one i need going back to 1965 when we turned pro. I have every other produced programme up to date.

Congratulations Phil, glad to hear you finally got that elusive single sheet.

Good luck on the Atherstone hunt too.
