Official Panini/Match Attax thread

There used to always be one flash @#%&! at school with a wedge full of shinys. He was like the Al Capone of Merlin stickers...could demand anything he wanted to swap a 'Number 1'

Did he used to charge 3 for a badge. @#%&!s to a man, they were. Usually they were the kids whose Dads had them for Saturdays. They had new trainers too. Used to wish my Mam and Dad would split up too.

Panini>Merlin nft.

Daughter did the Match Attax premier league one. She's not interested in the world cup coz United arnt in it.
Got a Panini album free from the newsagents...the stickers do smell the same...mmmmmmm. The England stickers are snide photo-shops coz the FA refused Panini the use of pictures of England players in their actual kits coz the FA have done a separate deal with another sticker maker.
My lad mithered me for one packet of stickers but dosnt wanna bother anymore because it didn't have his favourite player Peter Crouch in it. It'll save a few bob but I want that smell.

Tried to get him to do the Paninis but Match Attax are cooler in his world.

I did the last world cup and filled it. I am tempted to do it with the lad this year.

How many swops have you btw

Due to the PISS POOR response on here I've just given all my Match Attax swops to a lad in work, he's supposed to be bringing me some in...

Got no Panini ones cos I've not started it yet. I'm thinking to do so might be a step too far.

i've been very tempted to do this via my step son, but thought it was a bit sad for a 29 year old to be contemplating. deffo gonna start now some of you sad cases are doing it

i remember the merlin 94 one at school, i think that was the last one i did.

got, got, got, got, got, got, NEED! GUNNER HALLE, I NEED HIM MATE! I'LL SWAP YOU THE WHOLE WIMBLEDON TEAM, PLUS FRASER DIGBY AND THE SWINDON SHINY FOR HIM!!

happy days

Today it is. We watched Spurs v Portsmouth in the FA cup semi and he decided he was a Tottenham fan (but still United as well) and Crouch is his favourite player. I guess he stood out (Im a Pringles addict and Crouch is all over their packaging atm as well.

He did tell me yesterday that he supports Villa now as well (he likes their kit).

My lad supports Everton as well.....and Newcastle.

Destests City and esp Tevez, can't understand why he left United to go there.

His big bug-bear at the moment is managers. Thinks they are all crap. (Manager cards are only rated 5/100 in Match Attax)
