Jorg Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I was tempted to get it this year until I read this... Euro 2024 stickers: Why are Topps albums missing players? - BBC News It is pretty disappointing for the people that do try and complete the books for every tournament.

Barry Cartman Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 My son got given 1 from the corner shop and its so bad, but he's having fun with a few friends He got a Perisic sticker with a weird letter/number combo on the back, didn't have a clue where it was supposed to go in the book. There was a slot for a Tottenham player on the Croatia page so assumed it must have been there, but then realised just before he was about to stick it in that each team also has some other page with special mentions and that's what the number/combo was for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Cartman Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Quote Household names including Man City's John Stones and Phil Foden aren't in the collection - and neither are wingers Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka. At least they got something right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFuller Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 As I mentioned in a previous thread, I'm not buying this year's album for so many reasons - not least the missing players. Seeing Luke Thomas in there reminds me of one of EA's old Euros video games (I think it was Euro 2004) where they had Michael Tonge in the England squad. He was playing for Sheffield United in Division 1 at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hairwad Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Got the England Panini one as the best of a bad choice. Thoughts: Stickers are good quality, some random shinies mixed in normal pages now I like the secrecy of which players go where (don't know if this is a new thing) Legends section speaks to me - the Keegan sticker is beautiful The 'Road to Germany' section seems a bit filler Next gen section is nice Wish there was 4 more pages outside of the 5 main countries (don't know if this is a reverse rights thing) Shinies are nice, remind me of the swirliness of Football '86 Spent £67 on a mega pack. Still need 103 of 387. 124 swaps. Need to find some local randoms on Facebook now! I'm aware I should grow up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost is just astronomical now and in no way worth it. I appreciate the days of 7 stickers in a pack for 25p is 20+ years ago now. but the expectation to spend £200+ to complete a sticker book is ludicrous Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebs Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Wasn't sure where to put this but give it a go. It generates a football card with your lovely face. 😀😀😀 https://foot.boo/results/ Here's one of mine: 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
