    I shall not tell long, who the collectors of programmes are and to quote dictionaries. If you on this page - you are the collector of programmes.

    Personally my collection of programmes has begun in 1985 (in 9 years!) when the father has brought me a pile of programmes from stadium where there was a decent quantity of programmes to games of Zirka Kirovograd. Since then everything has begun. Later, couple of years, I collected all programmes, which came across a hand, and tried to make the first catalogue of programmes, which has turned out in an ordinary school writing-book. Then in 1987 I have begun correspondence and an exchange by mail. Understanding  that impossible to collect everything, has come quickly, and the exchange has replenished with everything, that to my mind, but my opinion, stirred. Till present time in an exchange programmes of different zones of the second league of the championship of the USSR from Gomselmash up to Irtysh roll.

    Then I also was defined with themes: all programmes of the Kirovograd teams (and for that time it was only Zirka) and the international games of the Soviet teams, which number includes the European cups, games of all national teams, the international friendly games. To the big surprise, this list almost has not exchanged but it just was transformed to the international games of the Ukrainian teams (Soviet also have remained, but only till 1991), and also programmes of finals of cup of Ukraine and games of the SuperCup of Ukraine were added. Well and, certainly, each collector leaves something to remember from other programmes, therefore I have named this section "Memorable programmes".

    Here almost that’s all. I just wish to tell, that it is my catalogue of my programmes. It is already the 4-th "edition" of such catalogue. The first as I have told was in a school writing-book. The second - in a thin notebook, also has existed at me with 1989 on 1997. In 1998 I have decided to make the new normal catalogue and have touched all on a computer, having made thus also a printed variant. But time moves further, and four years ago to me the idea to alter it has come, and to add images. Here and there was on the sly a scanning, while all has not been made.

    By the way, I suggested many collectors to make the general catalogue of programmes. All which exists. It is rather big volume of work, but scanning only 30 programmes in day you will see, how sections will be quickly filled. Certainly, my site in such kind under this business does not approach. Therefore I still suggest to make a powerful English-speaking resource. Many people have various ideas concerning different programmes - "fake", "pirate", "such programme wasn't printed". To use such powerful resource collectors would like all. But to make so they wouldn’t. But in fact in each city there is even one collector with native programmes or Bayern, or Everton, or Olympiakos. And if it only 1000 cities, and will be scanned by you on 30 programmes per day (business hour) only for a month it is possible to fill up a resource on 900000 programmes. And it is, I am assured, almost everything, that left on games on Europe.

    But during a half-year of updated site's existence the references of those who wished to add my catalogues was a few. Despite it, I still want to thanks those, whose information about programmes catalogue: D.B. - Dmitro Baranov (Ukraine), S.Y. - Stanislav Yeremenko (Ukraine), A.K. - Anatoliy Kolomiets (Ukraine), A.P. - Anatoliy Pavlyk (Ukraine), R.P. - Ruslan Prytyka (Ukraine), Y.P. - Yevgen Puglo (Ukraine), O.S. - Oleg Stadnik (Ukraine), S.T. - Sergiy Tretinykh (Ukraine), V.K. - Volodymyr Khoroshylov (Ukraine), R.S. - Roman Savin (Israel), S.Tr. - Sergey Tretyakov (Canada), Rodion Semenov (Russia), col. - the image from programme which there is in a collection in other category, prg. - the image is taken from programme which there is in a collection in other category, C.F.P. - the image is taken from the book "Catalogue of football programmes", eBay - the image is taken from auction eBay, Mol. - the image is taken from the Molotok, Fan. - the image is taken from site "Fanat", Int. - the image is taken from different sources of the Internet, *** - the preliminary information which at present is not confirmed by the image.
