It has been a little while since I last wrote. Perhaps I have been too busy watching the team play having made it to 49 of the possible 51 games from Perpignan to Ipswich. However, the 2025/26 season was finished with a whimper. Loss after loss both home and away after the team was well entrenched within the division with no chance of promotion and the same with relegation.

So, that leaves me with the consideration of what I will do for the future. I have given it quite a bit of thought and have chosen that the future is going to be, from now on, looking to the past. That is, as of the end of the 2025/26 season, I will not be purchasing any more programmes into the future whether home or away.

However, I will continue to build the site through old programmes that I purchase and slowly build up the collection, which is now getting slowly close to 5,000. I believe the last count was 4,863. So, please enjoy what is here and thanks for looking.

There have been a number of additions to the programmes, almost all from recent auctions. After a fair amount of time with nothing available, a good number have made an appearance. 

The big one is the Southampton v QPR, 26 December 1908 programme. This is, as described, a strange version of a gatefold. A gatefold is three pages folded sideways into a single page. The pages are not rectangular and thus there is some space for the programme front. In another lot just collected were a few rather rare items. The first is the 30 December 1950 Manchester City v QPR postponed and the second is a friendly, being 30 April 1953, Weymouth v QPR. I have added a few more from that lot into the collection, including the friendly, 29 April 1937 Fulham v QPR. Also, a few have been replaced with better copies. 

The 2024/25 season was completed and the 2025/26 season is now well under way. I still need to add some team sheets and hopefully they will be coming along soon.

While the fixtures are out, they can change. Sky will release the first day of TV fixtures. BY 3 July, they must inform of alterations up to end of September and by 31 July all alterations up to the end of the 3rd Round of the FA Cup. By 7 November, they will have to release alterations up to end of February.
