LISTEN: Children of the '80s, you did the football sticker industry a favour

For many kids in the '70s, '80s and '90s, collecting football stickers and making smart swaps with their schoolfriends was a cherished pastime.

But in a modern world dominated by Playstations, the Xbox and the Internet, are stickers only a preserve of enthusiasts?

That is not necessarily the case as Stuck On You author Greg Lansdowne explained to Joe and I on this week's Team 33, highlighting the important role played by the children of the '80s, who have been doing their bit to boost the industry.

During our chat with Greg, we also wondered whether the noughties generation will spell the last bastion of sticker collectors, and also looked at the age-old battle for supremacy between Panini and its competitors. 

So if you were an avid or even occasional collector of football stickers, you can listen to that interview and more via the podcast player below or download on iTunes:
