They may well be @premierleague champions and no doubt well deserved but @Arsenal should be facing a points deduction for this programme cover, what an embarrassment ๐
Whoever put this junk together should hand themselves in ๐
For crimes against creativity this is top class ๐

Itโs not often I shower our old foes from Wiltshire with plaudits but this @Official_STFC v #Gills programme from 1974/75 is a geometric masterpiece! The simplicity of this 2 colour litho effort perfectly captures the era. Sadly a strike from Peter Eastoe won the match for #STFC

Donโt tell the Mrs but this beauty is coming in from EBay! ๐คซ
Really lovely artwork celebrating Sir Stanley Matthews from @BlackpoolFC for the visit of @ReadingFC
This is what football programme covers are all about, memorable talking points. Bland action images are not enough.

Of all the #EFL printed matchday programme produced last season a special mention has to go to @RotherhamUnited for this Bobby Dazzler ๐คฉ
A nice combo of images to celebrate their centenary and a proper vintage look. Respect to the #rufc designer here, top drawer. ๐ ๐๐

I canโt name the club due to ongoing discussions but this week I found out that in Scotland itโs a legal requirement for all clubs who produce a matchday programme to send a copy to the National Library of Scotland. Sorry to bore the non believers but this is impressive stuff! ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

Unfortunately thereโs still a plethora of bone idle football clubs around who canโt be arsed to produce a matchday programme. Nothing to do with finances and everything to do with laziness, thankfully #Gills are still doing things properly and honouring history and tradition. ๐

How can you not love this very clever circular work from @ReadingFC back in the 4th Division days at Elm Park ๐คฉ
No iMacs or InDesign to help out during this era!
Promotion winning #Gills came away with both points in a 1-0 win courtesy of legend Brian Yeo
Enjoy @phil_creighton

Modern marvels! Itโs fair to say @OfficialBHAFC have come along way on the pitch since squatting at #Gills in the 1990s and this recent programme is Premier League class. Top designers donโt come cheap but this is absolutely stunning ๐คฉ

Not #Gills but we all live in hope ๐ This 70s design masterpiece from @TUFC1899 is probably the finest programme cover Iโve even seen, light years ahead. Apparently created with a combination of paints and lighter fuel, proper old school. #History #Tradition #FootballProgrammes

Programme cover design obviously isnโt for everyone. Just look at these two #Gills shockers from the 2000s!! Watching these monstrosities come off the press must have made the poor old printer nauseous!! Horrific stuff. ๐คข

As of tomorrow. Once a week for the next 9 weeks will be doing a mini look back on the 25/26 season. (I know right Gluttons for punishment) this will consist of one video a week reliving every goal from last season.
Tomorrow we start with August! #Gills #GFC #GillinghamFC #EFL #SkyBetLeagueTwo @JRPKent @davecreasyTVFTM @mike_gammon

Says a lot about modern football when 45 minutes of Largs Thistle and Auchinleck Talbot has been more entertaining than 120 minutes of the Champions League final last night.
Two teams going for it and not holding back. A proper fitbaw game.โฝ๏ธ
