YOUR MATCHDAY PROGRAMME...
For decades, the matchday programme has been a quintessential part of the football experience on a Saturday afternoon and in mid-week.
We know how valued the programme is to a number of our supporters and we have been proud to see this publication win several awards during the past few seasons for its rich, varied content and appealing design.
Since the advent of the digital age, programme sales at all professional football clubs have steadily declined.
During the 2019/20 season – the last campaign in which we saw fans inside football stadia – The Stag made a negligible profit.
As can be appreciated, the programme must be cost-effective from a business standpoint.
For the reasons above, the club will be using this season as a litmus test to decide whether to continue producing a programme. This will be totally subject to sales.
We will endeavour to provide exclusive content, where possible, and hope that you continue to purchase The Stag regularly and encourage others to do so as well.
The programme’s future relies on whether supporters like you show a desire to keep the programme as part of the matchday experience. And for this publication to continue, sales must increase this season.
