Clearly the printers have a better contract than the pie makers.

 

[Is it PotG?]

A step too far for me.

Bought the NHS shirt, but one more to the massive piles of (mostly unread) matchday publications can pass me by.

I received an email from the club on 22nd May advising that they expect my programme to be dispatched week commencing 01/06/20.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROGRAMME ORDER

Your limited edition of the Arsenal match programme is currently being bound and processed. Due to high levels of orders in the Albion shop online and the Covid-19 restrictions on warehouse operations, we are expecting your programme to be dispatched week commencing 1 June.

Thanks for your patience and support.

Mine arrived via Yodel yesterday.

3 months ago or not, the programme notes and the programme itself are from a different world now. Reading the additional measures the club were taking against Coronavirus, the standing down until further notice of Gully, Sally and Sammy the mascots doesn't seem as seismic now as it would have done then for example.

As I understand it, the content had obviously been prepared but they were not printed at the time of the original fixture (and postponement). It was only subsequently that the club decided to have a print run. I would suspect, therefore, that the print run was very much tailored to the level of orders received at that point.
