Matchday Programme for Tomorrow

[ThundersleyShrimper]

I see its a £2 48 pager for tomorrow, however the cover, as shown on SouthendUnited.com, is for a 3rd round replay!

Good spot! That's a pretty dreadful typo.

Excuse me for asking, but how do you get a prog before the matchday? Are they on sale early anywhere?

 

[Norwichshrimper]

Good spot! That's a pretty dreadful typo.

I suspect more of a copy and paste error than a typo...probably copied the Bury game details and forgot to delete the replay bit! Either way you'd think someone might have spotted it!

Anyway i thought the next home game was against Millwall 13th mar:winking:

Well we've already played Brentford in the third round of a cup competition this season, so I suppose it could be classed as a replay! :dim:

Good spot! That's a pretty dreadful typo.

Given that "The 48-page FA Cup edition will include another exclusive interview with chairman Ron Martin who continues to update you on the latest stadium developments.", this may prove to not be the only inaccuracy.

Yes that irks me everytime I hear it. Pity they didn't leave the Man U game on it instead, at least it would have made pleasant listening!

There is always some typo or factual error in every matchday programme. Another recurring classic is in the picture action from previous games. The scoreboard graphic shows our team as Southend Unted. The other week Barker was listed twice in the team.

That said I think our programme is one of the best quality in this league.

Worth the £2 for pic of TrueBlue on page 23!!

Sold out just after 2 o'clock I was told...

Poor planning surely? That's very early.

 

[eastling]

Funny thing is mine didn't say '3rd Round Replay' but just '3rd Round'.....

Mine too, i got a program about 2.45 outside the club shop, surely someone could of made a phonecall to get a few more boxes over to the west

You'd have thought so, I wonder, if, because it was cup, they didn't order as many as normal especially as it was cheaper.
