Swiss_Saint Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Saw this on BBC today http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41029101 You buy the matchday programme and if you point your phone camera at sections of it you see highlights/player interviews etc similar to pokemon go style addittions. Would you be more likely to buy a programme if this was done? would you pay more for the programme? What are folks thoughts? p.s. mine are I think it is a great idea and could also be added with an advert for sponsors to generate even more (i.e. show a quick advert then the highlight) Edited September 5, 2017 by Swiss_Saint added my thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think anything that uses todays technology to enhance the match day experience is worth a go. It'd be interesting to see the "take up" right enough as many have lost the habit of buying programmes.

Swiss_Saint Posted September 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 According to the article Frickley (capacity 2087) have had a massive uptake, however the longlevity of the uptake would have to be studied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Hardly going to work if our Club can't be bothered to produce a Match Programme for a First Team competitive Cup Tie, like last Saturday for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlucifer Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Personally I think they should be making programmes less rather than more. Reduce the content and price and I believe more people will buy it. Concentrate on the game being played, the Teamsheet, (Which we actually don't get at present), and maybe a wee footnote about the last game. Who needs to know about a game that happened last year or even further back? Who needs a "fans insight"? I'll be happy to waive that for a better price. Most people buy a programme as a keepsake of the game. No need to flower it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Pityme Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Is it a good idea, or bad..? dunno, but i am sure if put to the vote it will have more chance of having a few grand of smisa cash spunked on it than say, putting live feed, footie tv screens above the pie stalls!

They should have taken the small hit for the sake of record, history and fans wants. A four page Programme at 50p or a £1 would have been sufficient.

Why don't you get your John Bull (shit) printing press out and create your own wee programme? Y.ou can have anything you want in it and any spare copies can be left on the back seat of your pish-stained Skoda to entertain your customers. They might start referring to you as Travis though.
