1947/48 - Division 3 South
about the programme
It was a case of ‘as you were’ for 1947/48, as we retained the 8-page programme and cover design. Twenty-three were issued, including two FA Cup matches. In addition, the first 2 post-war friendly programmes were also produced, using the same design as per the league/cup matches.
