Disgraceful conduct trying to profit from Town's greatest players death, absolutely disgraceful.


Happened with the free tribute to Sir Bobby Robson as well.

As said elsewhere, I think there was a lot of that. I got to Planet Blue at 7pm and they had sold out already. It was also a lot busier around the ground than it usually is at that time.

Given the weather and the occasion, while it was not a big crowd, those who did go seemed to be at the ground much earlier than usual. Fanzone was pretty busy pre-match.


I bought one from one of the kiosks outside the ground at almost 7.30 and he had a stack full still left!

None available when I tried to buy one last night, despite being sent on a wild goose chase by staff to visit or her Kiosks and Planet Blue after the game

.
What would be a good idea is if they printed some extras and had them for sale, in addition to Saturday's programme


That would be a good idea. We tried to buy one but none of the kiosks had them.

I wasn't too upset as we never usually buy one so it was probably unfair to try to buy when people who always buy one couldn't get one either.

You have just discovered capitalism.


And judging by the responses on here, most of us don't have a taste for it. When does the revolution start?

no, it is profiteering from an increased need for programmes against a low printed stock of them. Not really anything to do with Beattie the idea of selling them is because there is a demand for them.

I do think a fair few people bought two or three for friends who couldn’t make it. I bought an extra couple for people who asked on here. They’re giving £20 each for them...

Joking!!!!


Oi, I thought you said £15.

or it could be that sales have been much lower in the past 12/24 months it was not cost effective to print the same quantity as in previous years. When a big game or a programme like yesterdays comes along then there is the demand but not the quantity. I dare say we will not sell out of programmes against Bolton.

FWIW I bought 3 whereas I normally buy 1..... One for the old man, one for my uncle and one for me.


If the club didn't have enough, they are a bit thick. It was fairly obvious more would be sold. Getting 4 times the usual amount probably wouldn't have cost a lot more and they charge £3 a copy. It probably barely costs 20p a copy to make? Even if 50p, still 600% profit. They could have just done the extra for this one game?

As you said, you got one for other people and you weren't the only ones.

Selling on eBay is a bit odd. How much can you really make? Maybe some desperate people are paying £15-20.

It seems anything commercial with the club ends like this...

They'd rather print and sell 1000 copies than print 2000 and only sell 1950 of them

Yes. Its got worse over the years. Completely agree. They seem to have no commercial "brain".

I remember they brought that limited addition white kit out when we played Crystal Palace and I think they only made 500 or so? When really they could have sold a few thousand.....
