The TFK official 'I've fucked it up' thread

Should have kept my programmes

Nice idea for a present

Should be 100-120

Cool. I’m sitting on a goldmine, so.

[QUOTE=“corner back, post: 1149967, member: 1572”]Quick update on this, continuing the spirit of the thread.

I searched high and low for this programme at home and work to no avail. Conscience got the better of me and, following @Fagan ODowd 's advice I had a look at collectibles corner website. He didn’t have the specific programme so I purchased a programme of the same vintage from the Wexford Cork All Ireland final from 1956.

It was actually a much better and more interesting programme. Ring was going for his ninth all-Ireland. All the Rackards were playing. Seemingly Ring had a chance to win it at the end but was thwarted by Wexford goalie, Art Foley, who cleared the ball to start an attack that led to a winning goal for Wexford.

Anyway, I gave the programme to the man and he was happy out. 3 weeks later, inevitably, I found the original programme buried behind a drawer. I’m between minds. I could give it to your man. Obviously I could sell it back on that website but I don’t think I’ll do that. If anybody here wants it send on a PM.[/QUOTE]
That is a great story and a great gesture. It will buy you some luck somewhere down the line. :clap:

Don’t crease it.

I would never dream of selling any of mine.

I keep all my programmes, as does my father. Why pay money just to throw them away?

Do you have all your old newspapers too?

Do you have many copies of the1957 AIHF programme?

Only one, but I do have a copy of every other All-Ireland hurling and football final programme from 1957-1975 inclusive and most since then.

You’re sitting on about 4k so.

Nice. 4k would buy me nearly a full year’s supply of Tuborg. :pint:

Seeing mention of old programmes here reminded me that I found a load of old tickets the other day. Remember Dudu Aoute in this game, @mickee321?

I put my concert ticket, match ticket collection and programme collection into chronological order last week.

Very satisfying

Dudu Awat is a cunt. Even his own teammate gave him a broken snout, the horrible bastard.

Him and Jorg Stiehl. Hate figures. .

Should have waited for a week mate and you could have had a great 10 year anniversary post in the On This Day thread.

I was flying yesterday. Had a savage day. Was doing some bits and sent off a couple of important letters at about 10pm. I was sitting at home with the missus later when I realised I’d neglected to put stamps on them… I have to go hang out outside the post office now til the postman comes to collect them.
