Happy Christmas to everyone on this forum!

It's been a rollercoaster of a year both from a match attending perspective, and a collecting one, and it's still a rapidly changing picture!

Thanks to all the posters on here who share useful information and make it the community that it is. And great to welcome back several longstanding old faces on here.

Whether you are able to get to games at the moment or not, I hope you have a nice time over the festive period and see you all on here in the new year!

Fond memories of Xmas as a young lad, the excitement of opening one of Steve Earls bargain bundles on Xmas day, that's if I hadn't discovered where my parents had hid them before hand!
Merry Xmas one and all

Happy Christmas to you all!

And in 1953, to all Crystal Palace fans.... but not the travellers from Norwich presumably! Bah humbug to them!

Best wishes to everyone whether you are celebrating, whether you are isolating or whether you are just chilling. Take care during this time.

Let us hope that 2022 will be a much better year.

A Merry Christmas to all you fellas on here, if you've been really good this year then I hope Santa is kind to you.

Who knows, it might even be the year you get that train set I've been waiting fifty years for! Don't forget to leave a mince pie & 20 cans of Strongbow out for him.

Have a good 'un, lads. Here's hoping we all have prosperous collecting in 2022!

All the best to everyone on the forum. I’m an Evertonian, but l couldn’t resist having a wager on Liverpool to win the quadruple at 1000-1.. What’s the chances Littlewiggy? If it comes up, l might just buy a caravan in Wales( luxury one with a jaccousie) Anyway, here’s a festive photo of our neighbours weird dog looking at me .

Happy Christmas to all collectors even if they ABU/ABLM! it is only a Hobby and not something to get wound up about or create issues due to extremes of plain jealousey-you know who you all are! Laughing

What matters today is to keep your health and your safety for everyone and their families, we are merely temporary guardians of these bits of paper and one day when we are gone they will be scattered to the 4 corners of the collecting world and the process will commence once again with others, so enjoy it whilst you still have the interest and whether your collection is worth a £100 or a Million plus+++ either way it is important to each one of us in our own way.

Never deride anyone-some have deep pockets and some do not-its a Hobby not a continual War, but some will never learn or understand so just give them a wide berth and do your own thing.

As i have said before for me the sharing is the best bit, for others they prefer not too-fair enough-each to their own in style and method.

Finally, over the last couple of years although perhaps our Hobby has not seen too many new faces, the Pandemic has allowed a lot of us to spend even more time on our collections and knock them into a better shape perhaps, not to mention how prices have continued to rise both on Ebay and the Auction Houses when quality items have turned up with quite a number of collectors calling it a day and some prices have been eye watering, but i still feel there are bargains to be had if you look hard enough.... roll on 2022 let's hope it is a better year for us all in every way inside and outside of the Hobby

Merry Christmas one and all!

Not been here as much as I would like but I wish you all a peaceful sane and healthy Christmas and New Year.

My New Years Resolution....to finally make some proper inroads into the non shrinking pile of paper that is my collection so of you want to fill those Plymouth shaped gaps in your collection post 1950 come and remind me what you need...

Oh and England Internationals, FA Cup post war final and semis, random Speedway and Rugby ( league and Union), autographs, A & BC and other cards and stickers....theatre programmes and annuals/Rothmans....

My name is Peter and I am a Football programme collector ....
