    I collected and completed 5 Merlin Premier League albums between '94 and '00. Also have the '94 and 2002 Star World Cup albums. Jesus the lengths one would go to, to get that unobtainable sticker you were missing from the album. I remember having to pay one guy in the school yard £10 for Norwich's Carl Bradshaw, the sticker i needed to complete my album. That was a lot of money for one sticker in 1995! In later years i even went to the Merlin's swap shop that came to the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght to complete my collection. Still though, i wouldn't trade those albums or my callcards for the world. Great memories :)

    Whenever I got a new album the first thing I would do was check to see if any players had the same birthday as me.

    I bought 4 packs of stickers today for my sticker book, 99c a pack! :eek:

    What happened to the days when you'd go in with 50p and you'd get 2 packs at least? I miss those days. :(

    On the plus side, I GOT A SHINEY! :D (the Chile emblem)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Me and a few of the lads in the office started collecting these a few weeks ago - and it's since completely taken over. Taking early lunches to go buy stickers, excel sheets to organise swaps etc.

    It reached a nadir during the week when, swapping in the pub, a regular came up, felt incredibly jealous, ran out and bought an album and 100 packets of stickers :o

    Remember "World Cup 90?" It was in a big ring binder and you'd get an issue every week. Had sections such as "Great Games", "Golden Goal", and "Great Players." It was f*cking brilliant. Had a sticker section as well, I remember the Austrian flag was the Holy Grail.

    Ah the memories.

    my missus wanted to throw this out when we were cleaning the house, and if i weren't in the room when she had it in her hands she would have. I nearly went for her.

    Ah the memories.

    I still have that, came across it when I was moving house last year.

    It was made by Orbis. The sections were

    Team Pages
    Superstars
    Great Games
    Golden Goals
    Cup Countdown
    Finals Fever

    The pics on the front are Maradonna with the world cup, Ruud Gullit and Chris Houghton challenging for the ball, Gary Lineker being blocked by Alex McCleish, Emilio "The Vulture" Butragueno, and Jurgen Klinsmann being tackled by Guiseppe Bergomi.

    Easily the best world cup album.

    Am I the only one who saw the thread title and thought "Jeez, another Man City/Chelsea/Real Madrid thread"?
    Boy was I pleasantly surprised when its a thread devoted to the single greatest childhood memory that man could have!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,248 ✭✭✭hitman79


    ok i set up boards 2 and boards 2 is the password if anyone wants to join?


  • Registered Users Posts: 823 ✭✭✭kakee

    If you are collecting you can only join one collectors group and you cant leave if you have over 20% of your album filled.

    Surely Super Valu can't mark them up that much?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,838 ✭✭✭✭3hn2givr7mx1sc

    Got new stickers at last...been dying with anticipation all day :o

    Have found some promo codes but when I enter them it says I can't use anymore of these codes???

    Is there a limit to how many you can use? Only used 5 or 6 of em earlier today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,950 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Yeah I think there is a limit of 8. I used all mine yesterday. Did ya try the link to the facebook page in the page before this one?
    It's got the codes for almost all of the stadiums, emblems, mascots and those kinda stickers.


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 15,001 ✭✭✭✭Pepe LeFrits


    I joined the online thing but I feel it has lost some of it's magic since I was a little fella. Back then I only got annoyed when I got Paul Parker for the 18th time. Now it's more like 'cúnt, who?, who?, who?, cúnt, cúnt, massive cúnt, who?, cúnt, cúnt, cúnt...'
