Glad the exces saw the funny side, if they'd have gone off on one it would have been plastered over the news.

still "only" £36 on eBay [1] at time of typing - suspect it will end up quite a bit higher that that (but I'm no expert on rare programmes, and it is torn).

programme spotters were on to it early doors, of course: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.footballprogrammecentre.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6009" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.footballprogrammecentre.co.u ... php?t=6009</a>

£42 at the moment but prices are hard to predict for stuff like this. Vienna progs were £600 on ebay a few years ago and now go for under £200. But I do like the ebay blurb: ADDITIONAL PLAYERS IN THE PICTURE WHO HAVE AS YET, NOT BEEN SIGNED FOR CITY.
 
Funny as fuck.

The match programme for Manchester City’s Europa League tie with Aris Salonika was scrapped at the last minute after it emerged the Greek club had mistakenly printed a spoof team photograph of their English opponents.
A few copies made it into circulation for Tuesday night’s game in Thessaloniki, but the bulk were withdrawn by embarrassed Aris officials when the blunder came to light.

It appears the club’s programme designers had downloaded the digitally doctored team photo from the internet.

Standing alongside Roberto Mancini and his players are a host of star names who have been linked with City at one time or another, including Wayne Rooney, Fernando Torres, Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Amazingly, their suspicions were not aroused by another figure standing between James Milner and Joe Hart wearing a red and white striped hat and top to resemble the ‘Where’s Wally?’ character from the children’s book series.

Aris desperately tried to cover up their mistake and, asked why there were no programmes available on the night, press officer Chrisanthos Tsaltidis simply said: ‘Big problem.’
City officials were made aware of the situation at an official UEFA function on the day of the game. They are said to have seen the funny side and did not ask for the programmes to be scrapped.

Re: Many Lol's - Aris Programme Issues

I think we ought to do a similar thing for the home leg. Duke of Edinburgh in a goalie kit, Aristotle Onassis complete with big glasses, Maria Callas as 'mediapunto', Alexander the Great as a Kolarovesque FB, Mr. Papadopolous from Corrie (did anyone ever see him) - shite, I've run out of Greeks. Oh, we can give 'em our Georgios!
 
Re: Funny or not?

Slaggin' off the team, Carlos? It's our God-given right. We'll fuck those outside MCFC who try to do it, but it's what we pay us money for! An' while we're at it, those two pens, WTF. Christ, if that'd cost us points, yer'd need more than South American balls, pal.
