    Who else used to collect these? I have loads tbh and colleced them avidly - even to about the Year 2000

    I have some very old ones too - that a relation in the Family gave me - 19878 and 1982 (the last one Panini), though unsure if the first was

    I have others too - many completed with Teams or one short - like the 1989 one!

    I first started seriously with the 1987 Season - when they had the 2nd Division Club badge and Team pic in it (as well as later editions of Football Leauge ONLY ones), after they had stopped doing the same for the 3rd Division. My 1990 is a personal fave too - I remember you could collect Red and Yellow packet Stickers for the first time ever that Season with like Badges and Managers in one and players in the others! I recall the 1992 Panini being a dissapointing one indeed with barley any features - but then by 1993 Merlin took over and was way in-front I think standard-wise - especialy celebrating the opening of the Premier

    As for the 78 and 82 ones though - though they are in a terrible state, I would seriously 9and am seriously) considering selling them, as I am sure they can be repaired/mended by someone with time and care to spare!

    I had Panini 81 and 82 also the 1982 World Cup. I remember it was hard to get the shiny club badge stickers. I also had a Return of the Jedi one.
    The only thing to look forward to is the past

      I did as well as some lads in my class - 1986-1987, methinks. Just like marbles, football stickers were always the unofficial currency of the school playground. Cue about four or five lads, clustered in a circle at playtime as if they were up to no good and plotting something, but what they were actually doing? Something religious or being part of a secret society? No - they were swapping stickers, and they were saying: "I've got two of those" and "I haven't got that one", and so on. The amount of ripped and empty Panini sticker packets on the pavements outside local newsagents in the area was enough for shopkeepers to have a fit and reach for their sweeping brushes.

      And by the time there were only half a dozen to complete, every Panini packet had a repetition of football stickers that we already had. It's a bit like those "six to collect" toys inside Kellogg's breakfast cereal packets at the time, except that it was the same toy every time as they came from the same batch!
      I've everything I need to keep me satisfied
      There's nothing you can do to make me change my mind
      I'm having so much fun
      My lucky number's one
      Ah! Oh! Ah! Oh!

        spanning different seasons and even including some vintage editions. Selling or restoring older sticker collections can indeed be a rewarding endeavor, especially if there are collectors or enthusiasts who value the nostalgia associated with these items. It's a testament to the enduring passion and nostalgia that sports memorabilia can bring to fans of the beautiful game. Good luck with your collecting journey and potential sales!
