However!!!

The body copy is too small imho. I’ve got ok eyesight and it’s hard to read, anyone else struggle?

Easily rectified, just needs to go up 1 maybe two point sizes, there is room. Just my experience, others may be fine with it, sorry for the negative but it is early days.

Are you talking about the Mag FC, or BLM's "missing" Nun?

I have to agree with you on this point. I also found some of the print difficult to read due to the colours used, Black print on white background works best I think. I’m not nit picking, just adding constructive comments.

No it’s not and as I say I’ll pay it but it will put some off. The main point is that 2nd class post could be an option, I think it’s assumed these days that everything is needed next day and in this case it probably isn’t, just a suggestion.

You can't expect any business to provide any part of their goods/service at cost, you must make a mark up on all expenses, just because 2nd post cost £1.20 you really can't expect the club to pass that on at cost, a 40% mark up on carriage is quite the norm in any business and there is no way you can cover the cost of £1.20 in the £2 sale cost of the magazine. Look at it this wasY, if the mag cost £1 to produce and you sell it at £2 + £1.20 postage the margin is 26.6% but selling the postage at £2 the margin on the total transaction is 45% which is the more sensible business model for the sake of £0.80?

I don’t disagree and I’m willing to pay, parking and petrol to wakefield cost more. However you know Trinity fans as well as I do and some will use it as an excuse. I suppose it boils down to whether it pays or not.

Didn’t realise this replaces the programme.

Just a thought here MC. Why not give a free team sheet away on the day? Just a black and white A4. You could can buy a B/W laser printer for a £100 these days. Get a sponsor to cover the cost of the cheapest paper and toner you can find and bingo. It’s a nice gesture and it would be up to date as well. Just an idea.
