Proper old ones should be worth a tidy sum.

I'll have a gander over the weekend and see what there is. I went through a spell about 15 years ago buying them off eBay. I paid no more than a fiver per programme at most. They're collecting dust up there so I'm happy to part with them as a donation!

It might be worth listing what you've got, and if it's about money raising (as it is) seeing if they might raise more through more specialist channels.

I think what would be nice would be a (or some) mini collection of 4 key programmes - 1st home, 1st away, last home, last away - all signed by Ernie, in a presentation pack to be auctioned off. I have no idea though how realistic it is for them to be acquired.

Keep up the good work....it means alot to our family & we are overwhelmed by your kindness xx

What a cracking idea. If you add the game a couple or so weeks after his debut v Skelmersdale it would cover his 1st F A cup game but also the first of his many goals

good on thee. I'll help if necessary, so let me know.

In my search for these programmes, I got talking to a Tairn fanatic today, who was also a printer. He says there's a good chance Ernie's name won't be in the Bradfud programme 'cos they used to have to be printed summat like 6 days in advance and McGuigan might not have decided to play him at that point. Hey ho. Any purchase might be even more collectable if Ernie's name is scribbled over a printed name.
