Worst Programme Ever Bought : Tue Sep 27, 2011 8:14 pm  

Got to say the programme at Keighley this season is the worst ive ever bought theres local amateur sides that have better content than yours, glossy front cover thats about biggest plus point no lineups page and absolute nothing on the visitors, followed by page after page of sponsers I understand that clubs at our level make money from these but it was like a sponsers leaflet you get through your front door.

We are just the fans...... a phone call / letter / email to the club would have been a better idea , it isn't like anything can be done about it on a fans forum is it ??????

I had a look at one and have to say it is very poor.
I may be wrong on this, but i think its one from the RFL and not really ours.
If i am wrong someone will point it out.

If it's the "GO Cougars" one I can't disagree.

I bought one earlier on in the season and felt ripped off. There was barely 2 pages of journalistic content and about 20 pages of adverts.

I do wonder why the club put their name and reputation to such rubbish. Either do it properly or don't bother.

I,ve got to agree with the Town supporter on this. Ours is the worst programme in the league by a long, long way. There is no player statistics showing how many games each player has played, thier tries etc, no list of results for the season, virtually nothing on the opposition, no articles, nothing about the past except when they occasionally ask John to do a bit on past results, but nothing of any substance. What is worst though is that the main reason most people buy a programme is for the teams, and that seems to be something we have forgotten. As far as I know nobody has ever produced a programme in 100 year of the game without a teamsheet.

it's a poor effort, that is not beffiting of a proffesional club.

I have to agree with the Town fan as the Go Cougars programme that I bought contains one small mention of our visitors in the Chairmans notes and another small mention in the Head coaches notes, both not even adding up to a paragraph.. There is no mention of their players at all but yet there are 7 pages about Cougars players. There is a team sheet but it only lists Cougar players!!!!!!!! No mention of officials and to say it is self centred is putting it mildly. It certainly wasn't worth the £2 paid.

The Cougars should withdraw the programme as it is an embarrassment.

You may find it hard to believe but it is considerably better than the effort produced for the first match. That was 100% a book of adverts.

Now it is only 95% adverts.

The Club has done lots to improve all sorts of things throughout the year and can maybe do only one miracle at a time. Although not in his terms of reference I am sure JD will raise this when other priorities have been looked at. Also Rob is a bloke who listens to fans and reads forums and I would bet money he is also embarrassed by the standard of programme and I expect he is probably looking into this.

Don't worry guys I hear this is already in progress by Rob and Mary and hopefully a great new programme will be out next season.
