Didledee Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Are you Diddles? :0 I was having a look at the WC sticker book, and the packs are 80p! were they ever that much? Really looking forward to it, a month of football on an almost daily basis, England have game winners and talent and theres plenty of talent on show elsewhere, Spain and Brazil's squad look unreal, France and Germany too. I'll watch every game but I would never watch Russia v Saudi Arabia for example normally :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Faustus Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I look forward to that almost as much as his raw news reporting of the Blackpool spice epidemic That involve the video of the bag heads arguing the virtues of 'my girls', and the definition of a tramp?

SalfordOriginal Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Always look forward to a WC. Enjoy them better when the kick off times are unsual for the UK but still looking forward to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc505 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Brazil to win for me despite the location Wish i wasn’t too old for the panini sticker books We've spent a fortune on the sticker book this time, become a habit! Finally completed our first squad last night (Senegal), but must easily have as many swaps as we do stickers in the book. There's a swap bus driving around the country spending a day in different cities. Fuck it Im gonna go and queue up with people to find Egypt's sodding backup keeper.

captainmed Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Was going to go to 1 of England’s group games with the lad. Decided to have 5 nights in Magaluf instead. After years of us being a joke, I’ve given up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us counter this by planning our WC year annual holiday in warm southern European climes Can't fucking wait. We have a chance of making the QF's. Germany or Spain to win it.

Ani Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) I am like Parky on this. No idea what our best team would be. In fact I do not think I could name a team of 11 English players. Edited May 3, 2018 by Ani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naytch Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 :0 I was having a look at the WC sticker book, and the packs are 80p! were they ever that much? I remember collecting footy stickers from about 95-99 and I'm sure the packs were about 30p, and you used to get 6 stickers in a pack not 5. 80p is fucking scandalous- I read somwhere that apparently the average cost of filling the WC book is expected to be about £700 (can't remember the exact figure). Was tempted to have a go at filling it but not at that price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Full grown men, collecting stickers........deary me The average cost is supposed to be about £600 to fill one of these things (due to repeats etc) - you could go on a bit of a holiday for that.
