I've several hundred Headington progs and a few thou Oxford ones - let me know how I can help (plus there are one or two of us attempting to compile a list of every OUFC prog ever issued, including home and away reserves and youth single sheets etc.)

Other than going to football do you ever find time to get out, Boris?

Thanks for the kind words, Boris.
I'd gladly accept any help anyone wants to offer!

What I need help with is:
- updating the list of programmes (at the mo it only goes up to the 2004/05 season)
- scans of programme covers - this is the biggie... my own collection is nowhere near as extensive as many others, so if anyone would be willing to scan in programmes, I'd be VERY grateful
- spreading the word about the site.. its only early days, but the plan is to build up a little community of collectors, and get the site forum in regular use

I am more than willing to add reserve/youth games etc to the database, so if you want I can include in all the items you've found?

I'll pm you my email address (assuming it lets me - was playing up the other day) so feel free to drop me a line..[/list]

Message received and responded to mate!

And baboo - are you implying I have no life? How very dare you. Why, just a few months ago I went to a Peter Hammill gig, and I might go out again in a few months time. Possibly.

Yes but Forever Changes is quite possibly the single greatest contribution to music by anyone in the history of the world.

And I was there at Brookes in 2003 (or was it 2004) when Arthur and his men || orchestra performed the very same.

Well the snot has caked against my pants
It has turned into crystal
There's a bluebird sitting on the branch
I think I'll get my pistol
