The silver foil stickers. Us in the Panini Premier league collection? Come on!! I can smell the adhesive. Shame I’m in my fifties now. Be great for young kids though. I remember the excitement and disappointment when opening a pack of stickers.

FAR TOO EARLY ! AT LEAST 8 MONTHS !

I'm a firm believer in not counting chickens. While our destiny is in our hands, this league is so competitive, anything can happen. We could beat Leeds and lose to Plymouth and Stoke. We're only 1 defeat away from dropping out of the playoff places.

Give it a couple of months then start putting your order in

That takes me back, didn’t even know they still did these. I remember having tonnes of Eoin Jess’, must’ve been in every other pack in 1997ish

Wow - had no idea they were still going.
Do kids still actually collect these?

If we get to the playoffs, there will be a couple of significantly stronger teams than last season, and we'd quite possibly have to beat both to go up.

Not saying it isn't possible, but while i think we'll make the playoffs, we're highly unlikely to be the favourites.

Leicester and Southampton will be top 2, only team I wouldn't really fancy facing is Leeds but they are far from unbeatable.

Said the same thing earlier
Going up would be great for the finances but we'd have to put up with poxy var and we'd probably get battered every week
I love the championship, we go into every game believing we can win, we get to go to some proper football grounds and if we score we can go mental without it being disallowed 10 minutes later

Go for the Blackpool model when they went up, go into every game assuming we are gonna get battered and not giving 2 shits. Massive party atmosphere every week.

Slightly related, but I'd have always liked the club to produce it's own sticker album with teams from over the clubs history. Might need to be a ring binder so you could add future years in.

Something they did down the road at Exeter. Not sure how popular it was. Think you could buy packs of stickers or get them free in programmes. The Grecian: Sticker Album and New Look Programme for 23/24!

Remember POGS I have a full set from Star Wars that Walkers did some where. Could do old players, managers etc as part of a giveaway with programs, shop sales. JSB get a free collector’s album.

This would be a great way to start a hall of fame type thing too. Each home game a new player is inaugurated. Low attendance games means rarer items.
