the trouble with these things is they were nearly exclusively collected by kids.
i had full books of the 82, 86 and 90 ones. but i also wrote on the pages, the books got tatty and eventually thrown out. getting hold of ones in mint condition is pretty impossible. the stickers are also worth a lot more not stuck in the books, for obvious reasons.

I remember being really excited at first every time my dad gave me one of the small blue and white packets (as I remember them as being) from the local Esso garage to open and see what was in it.
I think I had one of the charts too - but never bothered to fill it in as almost every single time it was a Jeff Astle!
It became quite a joke by the end of the campaign: "Will it be someone other than Jeff today?" "No, it's him again".
I think I had an Alan Ball once - and that was about the only different one.

Just opened my first and only packet of 2014 Paninis that the missus bought me a couple of weeks ago for some reason. There are 6 cards/stickers:
Switzerland, Godfrey Oboabona, Stipe Pletikosa, Vasilis Torosidis, Jonathan Mensah and Jeff Astle...
Are any of these worth anything?

I've just remembered - I had an ugly bugger too to go along with my Alan Ball and 4 dozen Jeff Astles but I can't remember his name. I'm going to look up who the squad was in 1970 to find him (I'll know his name when I see it). I have a feeling he didn't get a game.

I've just looked him up and he did play 3 times in the 70 WC - "where he gained the distinction of becoming the first England player to be substituted at a World Cup".
BB - you're right. Keith Newton it was!I've just looked him up and he did play 3 times in the 70 WC - "where he gained the distinction of becoming the first England player to be substituted at a World Cup".
Wow! That's brilliant, Clouseau! Just look at that coin of Newton!
Can't believe they don't have numerous Jeff Astles in close up though!
Glad also to see that my old memory banks didn't fail me then - as they were blue and white packets the coins came in.

I managed to lay my hands on 5 full boxes of stickers for nowt. Put them on Ebay in batches of 50, some people paid over retail price for them plus postage
