Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Sticker Albums & Collections

29-01-2020 2:12am#1Well I'm an aul lad now and my daughter who is 10 has recently started collecting match attacks. Along with that and a link I just found it got me thinking about my youth.
I remember my first sticker collection back in the mid 80's was also a treat. A packet of sweets, who's sister can still be bought today (I actually bought my girls a packet of love hearts each the other day). So who remembers Soccer Shields? Just like love hearts the sweets all had a team name or football phrase on them. And underneath the the paper wrapper stuck to the plastic was your surprise sticker. A club logo. Collect 10 wrappers or something like that and you could send away for a wallchart to put your stickers on. I remember Sheffield Wednesday was on it, you would also have some player pics and maybe a little about them. Definitely recall Ian Rush and Gary Bailey being on my chart. So what am I not remembering?
Next up came the panini football 88 sticker album. I worked hard and had a good collection going. I used to bring the album and stickers to school to swap with my pals until one morning as I was getting in the car I placed it on the bonnet and forgot about it till we were half way to school. My dad turned the car around and we headed back home surely expecting to find it on the driveway, but allas it was gone. It was bin day and the bins had been lifted. My dad spoke with he bin men and always maintained they had picked it up and brought it home to their own kids....I was devastated
As a result football 89 was collected only half heartedly.
But then the big one. World Cup '90, I'd watch out for it if I were you. The greatest sticker album of all time. I have it complete, every issue of the weekly magazine collected in the binder, every sticker in place and the soccer superstars page signed off by Bobby Charlton.
Here is Cloughy to tell you all about it.
I also collected the Star World cup sticker magazine back in 1990 and again in 1994. Obviously very Irish orientated. I remember they had a cool sticker reveal like Catchphrase where you had to get about 6 stickers which all became the one picture, a shot from behind the goal in lansdowne road or something.
So what football stickers and cards did you collect?1
