Hello All,
The club has been gifted a number of programmes, which I have been sorting through. There are Hayes FC and HYUFC ones as well as those of other teams. I plan to sell these at home games when I ( or a sub) can do so. Object of where the money goes TBA but not just "club funds" and I will post how much is in the kitty as we go along. It it is a bit Hayes-centric in that I only have a dozen Yeading ones so if anyone wants to donate their's, please dm me.
I'll let know here when and where the programmes will be for sale.
Patsy
I am at a stage where I can move this work in progress forward. The programmes will be in the Lounge next Saturday 12th October from 2pm until the match starts then 15 mins after the final whistle for around half an hour.
The collection includes any type of match where some sort of programme was issued. The price is £1 regardless of the condition, size or type. Cash only and please come with change.
Where there are multiple copies of the same match, there will be up to five to look at. The more recent the season, the more multiple copies I have so please have that in mind when thumbing through.
A note will be taken of any sold so that these can be replenished if there are any spares.
The idea is to have a cabinet in the Lounge for the various pieces of memorabilia we have in store and any money made will go toward that.
The programmes are in the deeper supermarket crates and we have:
HYUFC
Three crates seasons 2007-8 to 2023-4
Hayes
One crate from the 1994-5 season
Yeading
Not a lot
Other clubs
Two crates
One crate of Non League Club Directories 2000 to 2021/22 a couple of football related books. These are priced at £2 each.
Due to the number and weight, I may have to start with HYUFC and Hayes first but will see how we go moving the crates into the Lounge on the day.
Send me a message if you are looking for a particular programme. I am at the ground most Wednesdays when I can check what we have.
A good start to this - 34 programmes, one directory and a donation from a Wycombe fan because we had a sought after programme. The result is £41 in the fund.
Once worked out, I'll let you know when the next sale will be. In the meantime, please message me if you are after particular programmes/directories or if you have any to donate.
There is £48 now in the fund as we had a few programmes that a Gosport fan was looking for and we sold a Yeading vs Newcastle one - there are more of these.
The programmes and directories will be available for sale at the next two home games in the bar: on Saturday 30th November from 2pm until kick-off then 15 minutes after the final whistle for half an hour; on Tuesday 3rd December from 7:20pm until kick-off then 15 minutes after the final whistle for 15 minutes.
If you have any particular programmes you are looking out for, please let me know and I can check for you and I am also happy to take donations of programmes.
and I will post how much is in the kitty as we go along. It it is a bit Hayes-centric in that I only have a dozen Yeading ones so if anyone wants to donate their's, please dm me.
